Dark-in-the-Bright solitary wave solution of higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with non-Kerr terms

We present new type of Dark-in-the-Bright solution also called dipole soliton for the higher order nonlinear Schrödinger (HNLS) equation with non-Kerr nonlinearity under some parametric conditions and subject to constraint relation among the parameters in optical context. This equation could be a model equation of pulse propagation beyond ultrashort range in optical communication systems. The solitary wave solution is composed of the product of bright and dark solitary waves. This type of pulse shape to be formed both the group velocity dispersion and third-order dispersion must be compensated. We also investigated the stability of the solitary wave solution under some initial perturbation on the parametric conditions. We have shown that the shape of pulse remains unchanged up to 20 normalized lengths even under some very small violation in parametric conditions.     

Self-similar cnoidal and solitary wave solutions of the (1+1)-dimensional generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation

With the help of the similarity transformation and the solvable stationary nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE),we obtain exact chirped and chirp-free self-similar cnoidal wave and solitary wave solutions of the generalized NLSE exhibitingspatial inhomogeneity, inhomogeneous nonlinearity and gain or loss at the same time. As an example, we investigate their propagationdynamics in a nonlinear optical system, and present a series of interesting properties of optical waves.     

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.     

Statistical mechanics of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We investigate the statistical mechanics of a complex fieldø whose dynamics is governed by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Such fields describe, in suitable idealizations, Langmuir waves in a plasma, a propagating laser field in a nonlinear medium, and other phenomena. Their Hamiltonian $$H(\phi ) = \int_\Omega {[\frac{1}{2}|\nabla \phi |^2 - (1/p) |\phi |^p ] dx}$$ is unbounded below and the system will, under certain conditions, develop (self-focusing) singularities in a finite time. We show that, whenΩ is the circle and theL ² norm of the field (which is conserved by the dynamics) is bounded byN, the Gibbs measureυ obtained is absolutely continuous with respect to Wiener measure and normalizable if and only ifp andN are such that classical solutions exist for all time—no collapse of the solitons. This measure is essentially the same as that of a one-dimensional version of the more realisitc Zakharov model of coupled Langmuir and ion acoustic waves in a plasma. We also obtain some properties of the Gibbs state, by both analytic and numerical methods, asN and the temperature are varied.     

Exact self-similar solutions of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with distributed coefficients

A broad class of exact self-similar solutions to the nonlinear Schr?dinger equation (NLSE) with distributed dispersion, nonlinearity, and gain or loss has been found. Appropriate solitary wave solutions applying to propagation in optical fibers and optical fiber amplifiers with these distributed parameters have also been studied. These solutions exist for physically realistic dispersion and nonlinearity profiles in a fiber with anomalous group velocity dispersion. They correspond either to compressing or spreading solitary pulses which maintain a linear chirp or to chirped oscillatory solutions. The stability of these solutions has been confirmed by numerical simulations of the NLSE.     

Collapse in the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

On the integrability aspects of nonparaxial nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the dynamics of solitary waves

The integrability nature of a nonparaxial nonlinear Schrödinger (NNLS) equation, describing the propagation of ultra-broad nonparaxial beams in a planar optical waveguide, is studied by employing the Painlevé singularity structure analysis. Our study shows that the NNLS equation fails to satisfy the Painlevé test. Nevertheless, we construct one bright solitary wave solution for the NNLS equation by using the Hirota's direct method. Also, we numerically demonstrate the stable propagation of the obtained bright solitary waves even in the presence of an external perturbation in a form of white noise. We then numerically investigate the coherent interaction dynamics of two and three bright solitary waves. Our study reveals interesting energy switching among the colliding solitary waves due to the nonparaxiality.

On the Riemann–Hilbert problem of a generalized derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation

In this work,we present a unified transformation method directly by using the inverse scattering method for a generalized derivative nonlinear Schr?dinger(DNLS)equation.By establishing a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem and reconstructing potential function q(x,t)from eigenfunctions{Gj(x,t,η)}3/1 in the inverse problem,the initial-boundary value problems for the generalized DNLS equation on the half-line are discussed.Moreover,we also obtain that the spectral functions f(η),s(η),F(η),S(η)are not independent of each other,but meet an important global relation.As applications,the generalized DNLS equation can be reduced to the Kaup-Newell equation and Chen-Lee-Liu equation on the half-line.     

Darboux transformations for the generalized Schrödinger equation

The intertwining operator technique is applied to the Schrödinger equation with an additional functional dependence h(r) on the right-hand side of the equation. The suggested generalized transformations turn into the Darboux transformations for both fixed and variable values of energy and angular momentum. A relation between the Darboux transformation and supersymmetry is considered.     

Existence of solitary waves for the discrete Schrödinger equation coupled to a nonlinear oscillator

The discrete Schrödinger equation with a nonlinearity concentrated at a single point is an interesting and important model to study the long-time behavior of solutions, including the asymptotic stability of solitary waves and properties of global attractors. In this note, the global well-posedness of this equation and the existence of solitary waves is proved and the properties of these waves are studied.     

Focusing and multi-focusing solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

A method of dynamic rescaling of variables is used to investigate numerically the nature of the focusing singularities of the cubic and quintic Schrödinger equations in two and three dimensions and describe their universal properties. The same method is applied to simulate the multi-focusing phenomena produced by simple models of saturating nonlinearities.     

On the nonlinear Schrödinger limit of the Korteweg-de Vries equation

Using the multiscale approach of Zakharov and Kuznetsov it is shown that the nonlinear Schrödinger periodic scattering data is related to the Korteweg-de Vries periodic scattering data via an average over the Korteweg-de Vries carrier oscillation. This allows a complete elucidation of the physical meaning of the nonlinear Schrödinger scattering data, conservation laws, theta function solutions and reality constraint.

Self-similar rogue waves in an inhomogeneous generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We present an explicit analytical form of first and second order rogue waves for distributive nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) by mapping it to standard NLSE through similarity transformation. Upon obtaining the rogue wave solutions, we study the propagation of rogue waves through a periodically distributed system for the two cases when Wronskian of dispersion and nonlinearity is (i) zero, (ii) not equal to zero. For the former case, we discuss a mechanism to control their propagation and for the latter case we depict the interesting features of rogue waves as they propagate through dispersion increasing and decreasing fiber.

The nonlinear Schrödinger equation for the ground-state wave function of an inhomogeneous boson system is derived in the self-consistent Hartree–Fock approximation without the use of the formalism of anomalous averages. The results obtained correspond to the Gross–Pitaevskii equation for the Bose–Einstein condensate wave function when using the delta-shaped boson interaction potential.
