Abstract: Roughly speaking a solitary wave is a solution of a field equation whose energy travels as a localized packet and which preserves this localization in time. A soliton is a solitary wave which exhibits some strong form of stability so that it has a particle-like behavior. In this paper, we prove a general, abstract theorem (Theorem 26) which allows to prove the ex istence of a class of solitons. Such solitons are suitable minimizers of a constrained functional and they are called hylomorphic solitons. Then we apply the abstract theory to problems related to the nonlinear Schr"odinger equation (NSE) and to the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (NKG).
