Nonlinear wave modulations in plasmas

A review of the generic features as well as the exact analytical solutions of coupled scalar field equations governing nonlinear wave modulations in plasmas is presented. Coupled sets of equations like the Zakharov system, the Schrödinger-Boussinesq system and the Schrödinger-KDV system are considered. For stationary solutions, the latter two systems yield a generic system of a pair of coupled, ordinary differential equations with many free parameters. Different classes of exact analytical solutions of the generic system which are valid in different regions of the parameter space are obtained. The generic system is shown to generalize the Hénon-Heiles equations in the field of nonlinear dynamics to include a case when the kinetic energy in the corresponding Hamiltonian is not positive definite. The relevance of the generic system to other equations like the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, the complex KDV equation and the complexified classical dynamical equations is also pointed out.     

Analysis of the rogue waves in the blood based on the high-order NLS equations with variable coefficients

The research of rogue waves is an advanced field which has important practical and theoretical significances in mathematics, physics, biological fluid mechanics, oceanography, etc. Using the reductive perturbation theory and long wave approximation, the equations governing the movement of blood vessel walls and the flow of blood are transformed into high-order nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations with variable coefficients. The third-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation is degenerated into a completely integrable Sasa-Satsuma equation (SSE) whose solutions can be used to approximately simulate the real rogue waves in the vessels. For the first time, we discuss the conditions for generating rogue waves in the blood vessels and effects of some physiological parameters on the rogue waves. Based on the traveling wave solutions of the fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation, we analyze the effects of the higher order terms and the initial deformations of the blood vessel on the wave propagation and the displacement of the tube wall. Our results reveal that the amplitude of the rogue waves are proportional to the initial stretching ratio of the tube. The high-order nonlinear and dispersion terms lead to the distortion of the wave, while the initial deformation of the tube wall will influence the wave amplitude and wave steepness.     

Rogue waves in nonlinear Schrödinger models with variable coefficients: Application to Bose–Einstein condensates

We explore the form of rogue wave solutions in a select set of case examples of nonlinear Schrödinger equations with variable coefficients. We focus on systems with constant dispersion, and present three different models that describe atomic Bose–Einstein condensates in different experimentally relevant settings. For these models, we identify exact rogue wave solutions. Our analytical findings are corroborated by direct numerical integration of the original equations, performed by two different schemes. Very good agreement between numerical results and analytical predictions for the emergence of the rogue waves is identified. Additionally, the nontrivial fate of small numerically induced perturbations to the exact rogue wave solutions is also discussed.     

Nondegenerate soliton solutions in certain coupled nonlinear Schrödinger systems

In this paper, we report a more general class of nondegenerate soliton solutions, associated with two distinct wave numbers in different modes, for a certain class of physically important integrable two component nonlinear Schrödinger type equations through bilinearization procedure. In particular, we consider coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) equations (both focusing as well as mixed type nonlinearities), coherently coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CCNLS) equations and long-wave-short-wave resonance interaction (LSRI) system. We point out that the obtained general form of soliton solutions exhibit novel profile structures than the previously known degenerate soliton solutions corresponding to identical wave numbers in both the modes. We show that such degenerate soliton solutions can be recovered from the newly derived nondegenerate soliton solutions as limiting cases.     

Coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations including growth and damping

We give an analytical and numerical analysis of a system of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations with complex coefficients describing wave-wave interaction in the presence of a linear and non-linear damping (growth). An exact solitary solution is found for arbitrary damping rate for one of the waves when the linear damping of the second wave is zero. In general, the wave envelopes are composed of dispersive shock waves which are explosively unstable.     

Bifurcations and solutions for the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation

The theory of bifurcations for dynamical system is employed to construct new exact solutions of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Firstly, the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation was converted into ordinary differential equation system by using traveling wave transform. Then, the system's Hamiltonian, orbits phases diagrams are found. Finally, six families of solutions are constructed by integrating along difference orbits, which consist of Jacobi elliptic function solutions, hyperbolic function solutions, trigonometric function solutions, solitary wave solutions, breaking wave solutions, and kink wave solutions.     

Completely integrable models of nonlinear optics

The models of the nonlinear optics in which solitons appeared are considered. These models are of paramount importance in studies of nonlinear wave phenomena. The classical examples of phenomena of this kind are the self-focusing, self-induced transparency and parametric interaction of three waves. At present there are a number of theories based on completely integrable systems of equations, which are, both, generations of the original known models and new ones. The modified Korteweg-de Vries equation, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Sine-Gordon equation, the reduced Maxwell-Bloch equation. Hirota equation, the principal chiral field equations, and the equations of massive Thirring model are some soliton equations, which are usually to be found in nonlinear optics theory.

A KAM Theorem with Applications to Partial Differential Equations of Higher Dimensions

The existence of lower dimensional KAM tori is shown for a class of nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems of infinite dimensions where the second Melnikov’s conditions are completely eliminated and the algebraic structure of the normal frequencies are not needed. As a consequence, it is proved that there exist many invariant tori and thus quasi-periodic solutions for nonlinear wave equations, Schrödinger equations and other equations of any spatial dimensions.     

Collisionless Boltzmann equations and integrable moment equations

A collisionless Boltzmann equation, describing long waves in a dense gas of particles interacting via short-range forces, is shown to be equivalent to the Benney equations, which describe long waves in a perfect two-dimensional fluid with a free surface. These equations also describe, in a random phase approximation, the evolution, on long space and time scales, of multiply periodic solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation is likewise shown to be related to an integrable system of moment equations.     

Varieties of solitons and solitary waves

A summary is presented of the principal types of completely integrable partial differential equations having soliton solutions. Each type is derived from an appropriate physical model of an electromagnetic wave problem, with the intention to show how known mathematical results apply to a coherent class of physical problems in electromagnetic waves. The non-linear Schrödinger (NS) equation appears when the induced non-linear dielectric polarization is expanded in a series of powers of the electric field, only the linear and third-order polarizations are retained, and the temporal spectrum of the wave is a narrow band far removed from any resonance of the medium. The sine-Gordon equation appears from a similar optical model of propagation in a dielectric consisting of identical 2-level atomic systems, but resonance occurs between the carrier frequency of the wave and the transition frequency of the atoms. The Boussinesq and Korteweg– de Vries equations appear at different levels of approximation to a potential wave on a transmission line having a non-linear capacitance such that the charge stored is a non-linear function of the line potential. In all cases the evolution variable is the propagation distance; the transverse variable is time, but in the case of the NS equation it may alternatively be a spatial coordinate, giving rise to the possibility of spatial solitons as well as temporal solitons for NS-type problems. Two examples are derived of non-integrable Hamiltonian systems having spatial solitary waves, namely the second-order cascade interaction and vector spatial solitary waves of the third-order interaction, and a brief survey of the analytical solutions for the plane waves and solitary waves of these two types is presented. Finally, the addition of a second spatial dimension to the non-linear transmission line problem leads to the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations, and a further approximation for weakly modulated travelling waves leads to the Davey–Stewartson equations. Both of these completely integrable systems support combined spatial–temporal solitons.     

The Hamiltonian dynamics of the soliton of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Hamiltonian equations are formulated in terms of collective variables describing the dynamics of the soliton of an integrable nonlinear Schrödinger equation on a 1D lattice. Earlier, similar equations of motion were suggested for the soliton of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in partial derivatives. The operator of soliton momentum in a discrete chain is defined; this operator is unambiguously related to the velocity of the center of gravity of the soliton. The resulting Hamiltonian equations are similar to those for the continuous nonlinear Schrödinger equation, but the role of the field momentum is played by the summed quasi-momentum of virtual elementary system excitations related to the soliton.     

On the characterization of vector rogue waves in two-dimensional two coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations with distributed coefficients

We construct vector rogue wave solutions of the two-dimensional two coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations with distributed coefficients, namely diffraction, nonlinearity and gain parameters through similarity transformation technique. We transform the two-dimensional two coupled variable coefficients nonlinear Schrödinger equations into Manakov equation with a constraint that connects diffraction and gain parameters with nonlinearity parameter. We investigate the characteristics of the constructed vector rogue wave solutions with four different forms of diffraction parameters. We report some interesting patterns that occur in the rogue wave structures. Further, we construct vector dark rogue wave solutions of the two-dimensional two coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations with distributed coefficients and report some novel characteristics that we observe in the vector dark rogue wave solutions.     

On hamiltonian formulation of cosmologies

Novello et al [1,2] have shown that it is possible to find a pair of canonically conjugate variables (written in terms of gauge-invariant variables) so as to obtain a Hamiltonian that describes the dynamics of a cosmological system. This opens up the way to the usual technique of quantization. Elbaz et al [4] have applied this method to the Hamiltonian formulation of FRW cosmological equations. This note presents a generalization of this approach to a variety of cosmologies. A general Schrödinger wave equation has been derived and exact solutions have been worked out for the stiff matter era for some cosmological models. It is argued that these solutions appear to hint at their possible relevance in the early phase of cosmological evolution.     

Exact periodic wave solutions to the coupled Schrödinger-KdV equation and DS equations

The exact solutions for the coupled non-linear partial differential equations are studied by means of the mapping method proposed recently by the author. Taking the coupled Schrödinger-KdV equation and DS equations as examples, abundant periodic wave solutions in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions are obtained. Under the limit conditions, soliton wave solutions are given.     

Exact hole-bound states for semiconductor quantum wells with arbitrary potential profiles

An efficient numerical-analytical method for finding confined and continuum states in quantum-well systems with arbitrary potential profiles, described by coupled Schrödinger equations, is presented. The method is based on the analytical properties of the wave functions, in particular, the power series representation of solutions of the corresponding coupled differential equations. Using only the general properties of the coefficients of a system of an arbitrary number of coupled Schrödinger equations, and imposing for definiteness the simplest boundary conditions, we derive exact expressions for the wave functions and present methods for accurate calculations of the energies and wave functions of confined states and of the wave functions of continuum states in quantum wells. The method is applied to the calculation of the dispersion of hole bound states in a single GaAs quantum well with truncated parabolic confining potentials of different strengths. The results are compared with data available from previous calculations.     

Soliton,breather, and rogue wave solutions for solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation using a deep learning method with physical constraints

The nonlinear Schro¨dinger equation is a classical integrable equation which contains plenty of significant properties and occurs in many physical areas.However,due to the difficulty of solving this equation,in particular in high dimensions,lots of methods are proposed to effectively obtain different kinds of solutions,such as neural networks among others.Recently,a method where some underlying physical laws are embeded into a conventional neural network is proposed to uncover the equation’s dynamical behaviors from spatiotemporal data directly.Compared with traditional neural networks,this method can obtain remarkably accurate solution with extraordinarily less data.Meanwhile,this method also provides a better physical explanation and generalization.In this paper,based on the above method,we present an improved deep learning method to recover the soliton solutions,breather solution,and rogue wave solutions of the nonlinear Schro¨dinger equation.In particular,the dynamical behaviors and error analysis about the one-order and two-order rogue waves of nonlinear integrable equations are revealed by the deep neural network with physical constraints for the first time.Moreover,the effects of different numbers of initial points sampled,collocation points sampled,network layers,neurons per hidden layer on the one-order rogue wave dynamics of this equation have been considered with the help of the control variable way under the same initial and boundary conditions.Numerical experiments show that the dynamical behaviors of soliton solutions,breather solution,and rogue wave solutions of the integrable nonlinear Schro¨dinger equation can be well reconstructed by utilizing this physically-constrained deep learning method.     

Exact travelling wave solutions for some important nonlinear physical models

The two-dimensional nonlinear physical models and coupled nonlinear systems such as Maccari equations, Higgs equations and Schrödinger–KdV equations have been widely applied in many branches of physics. So, finding exact travelling wave solutions of such equations are very helpful in the theories and numerical studies. In this paper, the Kudryashov method is used to seek exact travelling wave solutions of such physical models. Further, three-dimensional plots of some of the solutions are also given to visualize the dynamics of the equations. The results reveal that the method is a very effective and powerful tool for solving nonlinear partial differential equations arising in mathematical physics.     

New approach to periodic solutions of integrable equations and nonlinear theory of modulational instability

A new method of finding the periodic solutions for the equations integrable within the framework of the AKNS scheme is reviewed. The approach is a modification of the known finite-band integration method, based on the re-parametrization of the solution with the use of algebraic resolvent of the polynomial defining the solution in the finite-band integration method. This approach permits one to obtain periodic solutions in an effective form necessary for applications. The periodic solutions are found for such systems as the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the Heisenberg model, the uniaxial ferromagnet, the AB system, and self-induced transparency and stimulated Raman scattering equations. The modulation Whitham theory describing the slow modulation of periodic waves is expressed in a form convenient for applications. The Whitham equations are obtained for all abovementioned cases. The technique developed is applied to the nonlinear theory of modulational instability describing the transformation of a local disturbance expanding into a nonuniform region presented as a modulated periodic wave whose evolution is governed by the Whitham equations. This theory explains the formation of solitons on the sharp front of a long pulse.     

Evaluating the robustness of rogue waves under perturbations

Rogue waves, and their periodic counterparts, have been shown to exist in a number of integrable models. However, relatively little is known about the existence of these objects in models where an exact formula is unattainable. In this work, we develop a novel numerical perspective towards identifying such states as localized solutions in space-time. Importantly, we illustrate this methodology for different perturbations of nonlinear Schrödinger models. In particular, in addition to benchmarking known solutions (and confirming their numerical propagation under controllable error) this enables the continuation of such solutions over parametric variations to non-integrable models. As a result, we can answer in the positive the question about the parametric robustness of Peregrine-like waveforms and even of generalizations thereof on a cnoidal wave background.
