This paper obtains the 1-soliton solution of the complex KdV equation with power law nonlinearity. The solitary wave ansatz is used to carry out the integration. The soliton perturbation theory for this equation is developed and the soliton cooling is observed for bright solitons. Finally, the dark soliton solution is also obtained for this equation.

There are three types of models of the nonlinear Klein–Gordon equation, with power law nonlinearity, that are studied in this paper. The soliton perturbation theory is utilized to carry out this investigation.

The adiabatic variation of soliton velocity is obtained in this paper by soliton perturbation theory.     

Bright and dark solitons of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation

The 1-soliton solution is obtained in all of these four cases. The adiabatic parameter dynamics of the solitons due to perturbation terms are laid down. In addition, the analysis of dark soliton is also carried out. Finally, a few numerical simulations of these equations are given.

Soliton chaos and lengthscale competition in nonlinear dynamics

Perturbing soliton-bearing completely integrable dynamics can give rise to rich and fascinating behaviour. If the perturbation introduces a lengthscale which is large compared to the spatial extent of the solitons present in the system, the solitons move like particles in an effective potential. Taking into account two-soliton interaction can result in chaotic behaviour called ‘soliton chaos’. In the opposite limit of a small-lengthscale perturbation the solitons acquire a dressing which effectively shields them from the perturbation. If the resulting ‘dressed solitons’ are subject to an additional long-wavelength perturbation they move like renormalised particles. Furthermore they can scatter nearly elastically. If the perturbation contains lengthscales which are comparable to one of the soliton's typical lengthscales then lengthscale competition can occur. Neither the particle approximation nor the dressed-particle approximation for the soliton is valid and complicated spatio-temporal behaviour is observed. We illustrate this scenario by means of the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The perturbed sine-Gordon equation and the Ablowitz-Ladik equation are also discussed.     

Quasi-stationary solitons for Langmuir waves in plasmas

The multiple-scale perturbation analysis is used to study the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation, that describes the Langmuir waves in plasmas. The perturbation terms include the non-local term due to nonlinear Landau damping. The WKB type ansatz is used to define the phase of the soliton that captures the corrections to the pulse where the standard soliton perturbation theory fails.     

Autoresonance excitation of a soliton of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

The action of an external parametric perturbation with slowly changing frequency on a soliton of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation is studied. Equations for the time evolution of the parameters of the perturbed soliton are derived. Conditions for the soliton phase locking are found, which relate the rate of change of the perturbation frequency, its amplitude, the wave number, and the phase to the initial data of the soliton. The cases when the initial amplitude of the soliton is small and when the amplitude of the soliton is of the order of unity are considered.     

Numerical resolution of stochastic focusing NLS equations

In this note, we numerically investigate a stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation derived as a perturbation of the deterministic NLS equation. The classical NLS equation with focusing nonlinearity of power law type is perturbed by a random term; it is a strong perturbation since we consider a space-time white noise. It acts either as a forcing term (additive noise) or as a potential (multiplicative noise). For simulations made on a uniform grid, we see that all trajectories blow-up in finite time, no matter how the initial data are chosen. Such a grid cannot represent a noise with zero correlation lengths, so that in these experiments, the noise is, in fact, spatially smooth. On the contrary, we simulate a noise with arbitrarily small scales using local refinement and show that in the multiplicative case, blow-up is prevented by a space-time white noise. We also present results on noise induced soliton diffusion.

Asymptotic Analysis of Pulse Dynamics in Mode-Locked Lasers

Solitons of the power-energy saturation (PES) equation are studied using adiabatic perturbation theory. In the anomalous regime individual soliton pulses are found to be well approximated by solutions of the classical nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation with the key parameters of the soliton changing slowly as they evolve. Evolution equations are found for the pulse amplitude(s), velocity(ies), position(s), and phase(s) using integral relations derived from the PES equation. The results from the integral relations are shown to agree with multi-scale perturbation theory. It is shown that the single soliton case exhibits mode-locking behavior for a wide range of parameters, while the higher states form effective bound states. Using the fact that there is weak overlap between tails of interacting solitons, evolution equations are derived for the relative amplitudes, velocities, positions, and phase differences. Comparisons of interacting soliton behavior between the PES equation and the classical NLS equation are also exhibited.

Solitary waves in dusty plasmas with variable dust charge and two temperature ions

Propagation of nonlinear waves in dusty plasmas with variable dust charge and two temperature ions is analyzed. The Kadomtsev–Petviashivili (KP) equation is derived by using the reductive perturbation theory. A Sagdeev potential for this system has been proposed. This potential is used to study the stability conditions and existence of solitonic solutions. Also, it is shown that a rarefactive soliton can be propagates in most of the cases. The soliton energy has been calculated and a linear dispersion relation has been obtained using the standard normal-modes analysis. The effects of variable dust charge on the amplitude, width and energy of the soliton and its effects on the angular frequency of linear wave are discussed too. It is shown that the amplitude of solitary waves of KP equation diverges at critical values of plasma parameters. Solitonic solutions of modified KP equation with finite amplitude in this situation are derived.     

A System of ODEs for a Perturbation of a Minimal Mass Soliton

We study soliton solutions to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with a saturated nonlinearity. NLS with such a nonlinearity is known to possess a minimal mass soliton. We consider a small perturbation of a minimal mass soliton and identify a system of ODEs extending the work of Comech and Pelinovsky (Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 56:1565–1607, 2003), which models the behavior of the perturbation for short times. We then provide numerical evidence that under this system of ODEs there are two possible dynamical outcomes, in accord with the conclusions of Pelinovsky et al. (Phys. Rev. E 53(2):1940–1953, 1996). Generically, initial data which supports a soliton structure appears to oscillate, with oscillations centered on a stable soliton. For initial data which is expected to disperse, the finite dimensional dynamics initially follow the unstable portion of the soliton curve.     

Collision of delta-waves in a turbulent model studied via a distribution product

By using a product of distributions, the existence and collision of soliton delta-waves for a singular perturbation of the Burgers conservative equation are established. We also prove that singular solitons under collision behave as in classical soliton collision (for example, as described by the Korteweg-de Vries equation). The impossibility of two delta-wave collisions for the inviscid Burgers conservative equation is also verified. The introduction is dedicated to a motivation for our study.     

Soliton perturbation theory for the modified nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation

The soliton perturbation theory is used to study the solitons that are governed by the modified nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation.

In particular, the nonlinear gain (damping) and filters or the coefficient of finite conductivity are treated as perturbation terms for the solitons.

Quasi-particle theory of optical soliton interaction

The intra-channel collision of optical solitons, with non-Kerr law nonlinearities, is studied in this paper by the aid of quasi-particle theory. The perturbations terms that are considered in this paper are both of Hamiltonian as well as non-Hamiltonian type. The suppression of soliton–soliton interaction, in presence of these perturbation terms, is achieved. The nonlinearities that are studied in this paper are Kerr, power, parabolic and dual-power laws. The numerical simulations support the quasi-particle theory.
