Solutions of the nonlocal(2+1)-D breaking solitons hierarchy and the negative order AKNS hierarchy

The(2+1)-dimensional nonlocal breaking solitons AKNS hierarchy and the nonlocal negative order AKNS hierarchy are presented.Solutions in double Wronskian form of these two hierarchies are derived by means of a reduction technique from those of the unreduced hierarchies.The advantage of our method is that we start from the known solutions of the unreduced bilinear equations,and obtain solitons and multiple-pole solutions for the variety of classical and nonlocal reductions.Dynamical behaviors of some obtained solutions are illustrated.It is remarkable that for some real nonlocal equations,amplitudes of solutions are related to the independent variables that are reversed in the real nonlocal reductions.     

Rogue-wave pair and dark-bright-rogue wave solutions of the coupled Hirota equations

Novel explicit rogue wave solutions of the coupled Hirota equations are obtained by using the Darboux transformation.In contrast to the fundamental Peregrine solitons and dark rogue waves, we present an interesting rogue-wave pair that involves four zero-amplitude holes for the coupled Hirota equations. It is significant that the corresponding expressions of the rogue-wave pair solutions contain polynomials of the fourth order rather than the second order. Moreover, dark-brightrogue wave solutions of the coupled Hirota equations are given, and interactions between Peregrine solitons and dark-bright solitons are analyzed. The results further reveal the dynamical properties of rogue waves for the coupled Hirota equations.     

Soliton and rogue wave solutions of two-component nonlinear Schr?dinger equation coupled to the Boussinesq equation

The nonlinear Schr?dinger(NLS) equation and Boussinesq equation are two very important integrable equations.They have widely physical applications. In this paper, we investigate a nonlinear system, which is the two-component NLS equation coupled to the Boussinesq equation. We obtain the bright–bright, bright–dark, and dark–dark soliton solutions to the nonlinear system. We discuss the collision between two solitons. We observe that the collision of bright–bright soliton is inelastic and two solitons oscillating periodically can happen in the two parallel-traveling bright–bright or bright–dark soliton solution. The general breather and rogue wave solutions are also given. Our results show again that there are more abundant dynamical properties for multi-component nonlinear systems.     

Exact solutions and residual symmetries of the Ablowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur system

The residual symmetries of the Ablowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur(AKNS)equations are obtained by the truncated Painleve′analysis.The residual symmetries for the AKNS equations are proved to be nonlocal and the nonlocal residual symmetries are extended to the local Lie point symmetries of a prolonged AKNS system.The local Lie point symmetries of the prolonged AKNS equations are composed of the residual symmetries and the standard Lie point symmetries,which suggests that the residual symmetry method is a useful complement to the classical Lie group theory.The calculation on the symmetries shows that the enlarged equations are invariant under the scaling transformations,the space–time translations,and the shift translations.Three types of similarity solutions and the reduction equations are demonstrated.Furthermore,several types of exact solutions for the AKNS equations are obtained with the help of the symmetry method and the Bcklund transformations between the AKNS equations and the Schwarzian AKNS equation.     

Explicit solutions from residual symmetry of the Boussinesq equation

The Bcklund transformation related symmetry is nonlocal, which is hard to be applied in constructing solutions for nonlinear equations. In this paper, the residual symmetry of the Boussinesq equation is localized to Lie point symmetry by introducing multiple new variables. By applying the general Lie point method, two main results are obtained: a new type of Backlund transformation is derived, from which new solutions can be generated from old ones; the similarity reduction solutions as well as corresponding reduction equations are found. The localization procedure provides an effective way to investigate interaction solutions between nonlinear waves and solitons.     

Canonical Formalism for Lagrangians of Maximal Nonlocality

A canonical formalism for Lagrangians of maximal nonlocality is established. The method is based on the familiar Legendre transformation to a new function, which can be derived from the maximally nonlocal Lagrangian.The corresponding canonical equations are derived through the standard procedure in local theory and appear much like those local ones, though the implication of the equations is largely expanded.     

Darboux transformation and soliton solutions of a nonlocal Hirota equation

Starting from local coupled Hirota equations,we provide a reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation by the symmetry reduction method known as the Ablowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur scattering problem.The Lax integrability of the nonlocal Hirota equation is also guaranteed by existence of the Lax pair.By Lax pair,an n-fold Darboux transformation is constructed for the nonlocal Hirota equation by which some types of exact solutions are found.The solutions with specific properties are distinct from those of the local Hirota equation.In order to further describe the properties and the dynamic features of the solutions explicitly,several kinds of graphs are depicted.     

Lattice Bhatnagar—Gross—Krook Simulations of Turbulent Natural Convection in a Cavity

A thermal lattice Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (LBGK) model with a robust boundary scheme is developed for Boussinesq incompressible fluids.In the model the velocity and temperature fields are solved by two independent LBGK equations which are combined into a coupled equation for the whole system.The two-dimensional natural convection flow of air in a differentially heated cavity of an aspect ratio of four is simulated for the Rayleigh number up to 10^10.The numerical results are found to be in good agreement with those of previous studies.     

Vector Spatiotemporal Solitons and Their Memory Features in Cold Rydberg Gases

We propose a scheme to generate stable vector spatiotemporal solitons through a Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency(Rydberg-EIT) system. Three-dimensional vector monopole and vortex solitons have been found under three nonlocal degrees. The numerical calculation and analytical solutions indicate that these solitons are generated with low energy and can stably propagate along the axes. The behavior of vector spatiotemporal solitons can be manipulated by the local and nonlocal nonline...     

Rogue Waves and Lump Solitons of the(3+1)-Dimensional Generalized B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation for Water Waves

In this paper, the(3+1)-dimensional generalized B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation for water waves is investigated. Through the Hirota method and Kadomtsev–Petviashvili hierarchy reduction, we obtain the first-order,higher-order, multiple rogue waves and lump solitons based on the solutions in terms of the Gramian. The first-order rogue waves are the line rogue waves which arise from the constant background and then disappear into the constant background again, while the first-order lump solitons propagate stably. Interactions among several first-order rogue waves which are described by the multiple rogue waves are presented. Elastic interactions of several first-order lump solitons are also presented. We find that the higher-order rogue waves and lump solitons can be treated as the superpositions of several first-order ones, while the interaction between the second-order lump solitons is inelastic.

Realizing single light solitons that are stable in high dimensions is a long-standing goal in research of nonlinear optical physics.Here,we address a scheme to generate stable two-dimensional solitons in a cold Rydberg atomic system with a parity-time(PT) symmetric moiré optical lattice.We uncover the formation,properties,and their dynamics of fundamental and two-pole gap solitons as well as vortical ones.The PT symmetry,lattice strength,and the degrees of local and nonlocal nonlinearity are tun...     

THERMODYNAMICS OF EQUILIBRIUM AND STABILITY

The dependence of the entropy of a homogeneous system on the composition is investigated with the help of a reversible adiabatic process which allows the change of composition by means of a semipermeable wall. The conditions of equilibrinm for phase transition and for homogeneous chemical reaction are derived in a new way. Next the criterion of minimum energy for constant entropy and volume is derived from the principle of increase of entropy. This criterion is then applied to obtain the conditions of equilibrium and stability with the help of Lagrange's multipliers. The conditions of stability are expressed in several alternative forms. Next the equilibrium properties of a binary system arc considered, and some types of phase diagram are explained by means of equations. The theory is extended to the general heterogeneous equilibrium of a system consisting of any number of independent components. A system of equations for the change of temperature, pressure, and composition are obtained and are solved by means of determinants. Next Planck's theory of a binary solution is extended to a solution consisting of several solnte components, with the same conclusion regarding the lowering of freezing point as for a binary solution. Finally Planck's theory on the number of coexisting phases for aone-component system is extended to a system consisting of k components with the result that a state with, σ coexisting phases is more stable than one with σ-1 phases: where σ is an integer not greater than k + 2.

Melting phenomenon in magneto hydro-dynamics steady flow and heat transfer over a moving surfacein the presence of thermal radiation

The Lie group method is applied to present an analysis of the magneto hydro-dynamics(MHD) steady laminar flow and the heat transfer from a warm laminar liquid flow to a melting moving surface in the presence of thermal radiation.By using the Lie group method,we have presented the transformation groups for the problem apart from the scaling group.The application of this method reduces the partial differential equations(PDEs) with their boundary conditions governing the flow and heat transfer to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations(ODEs) with appropriate boundary conditions.The resulting nonlinear system of ODEs is solved numerically using the implicit finite difference method(FDM).The local skin-friction coefficients and the local Nusselt numbers for different physical parameters are presented in a table.     

Multiple soliton solutions and symmetry analysis of a nonlocal coupled KP system

A nonlocal coupled Kadomtsev–Petviashivili(ncKP) system with shifted parity(■) and delayed time reversal(■) symmetries is generated from the local coupled Kadomtsev–Petviashivili(cKP) system. By introducing new dependent variables which have determined parities under the action of ■, the ncKP is transformed to a local system. Through this way, multiple even number of soliton solutions of the ncKPI system are generated from N-soliton solutions of the c KP system, which become breathers by choosin...     

Higher-Order Localized Waves in Coupled Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations

Higher-order localized waves in coupled nonlinear Schr6dinger equations are investigated by the generalized Darboux transformation. We show that two dark-bright solitons together with a second-order rogue wave of fundamental or triangular pattern and two breathers together with a second-order rogue wave of fundamentM or triangular pattern coexist in the second-order localized wave for the coupled system. Moreover, by increasing the value of one free parameter, the nonlinear waves in the second-order localized wave can merge with each other. The results further reveal the abundant dynamic behaviors of localized waves in coupled systems.     

Localized waves of the coupled cubic–quintic nonlinear Schrdinger equations in nonlinear optics

We investigate some novel localized waves on the plane wave background in the coupled cubic–quintic nonlinear Schr o¨dinger(CCQNLS) equations through the generalized Darboux transformation(DT). A special vector solution of the Lax pair of the CCQNLS system is elaborately constructed, based on the vector solution, various types of higherorder localized wave solutions of the CCQNLS system are constructed via the generalized DT. These abundant and novel localized waves constructed in the CCQNLS system include higher-order rogue waves, higher-order rogues interacting with multi-soliton or multi-breather separately. The first-and second-order semi-rational localized waves including several free parameters are mainly discussed:(i) the semi-rational solutions degenerate to the first-and second-order vector rogue wave solutions;(ii) hybrid solutions between a first-order rogue wave and a dark or bright soliton, a second-order rogue wave and two dark or bright solitons;(iii) hybrid solutions between a first-order rogue wave and a breather, a second-order rogue wave and two breathers. Some interesting and appealing dynamic properties of these types of localized waves are demonstrated, for example, these nonlinear waves merge with each other markedly by increasing the absolute value of α.These results further uncover some striking dynamic structures in the CCQNLS system.     

Variable fluid properties and variable heat flux effects on the flow and heat transfer in a non-Newtonian Maxwell fluid over an unsteady stretching sheet with slip velocity

The effects of variable fluid properties and variable heat flux on the flow and heat transfer of a non-Newtonian Maxwell fluid over an unsteady stretching sheet in the presence of slip velocity have been studied. The governing differential equations are transformed into a set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations and then solved with a numerical technique using appropriate boundary conditions for various physical parameters. The numerical solution for the governing non-linear boundary value problem is based on applying the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method coupled with the shooting technique over the entire range of physical parameters. The effects of various parameters like the viscosity parameter, thermal conductivity parameter, unsteadiness parameter, slip velocity parameter, the Deborah number, and the Prandtl number on the flow and temperature profiles as well as on the local skin-friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number are presented and discussed. Comparison of numerical results is made with the earlier published results under limiting cases.     

Exciting rogue waves,breathers, and solitons in coherent atomic media

We propose a scheme that excites rogue waves via electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT), which can also excite breathers and solitons. The system is a resonant Λ-type atomic ensemble. Under EIT conditions, the envelope equation of the probe field can be reduced to several different models, such as the saturable nonlinear Schr?dinger equation(SNLSE), and SNLSE with the trapping potential provided by a far-detuned laser field or a magnetic field. In this scheme, rogue waves can be generated by different initial pulses, such as the Gaussian wave with(or without) the uniform background. The scheme can be used to obtain rogue waves,breathers and solitons. We show the existence regions of rogue waves, breathers, and solitons as the function of the amplitude and width of the initial pulse. The novelty of our paper is that, we not only show rogue waves in the integrable system numerically, but also present the method to generate and control rogue waves in the non-integrable system.
