Approximate rogue wave solutions of the forced and damped nonlinear Schrödinger equation for water waves

We consider the effect of the wind and the dissipation on the nonlinear stages of the modulational instability. By applying a suitable transformation, we map the forced/damped nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation into the standard NLS with constant coefficients. The transformation is valid as long as |Γt|?1$|\Gamma t|?1$, with Γ the growth/damping rate of the waves due to the wind/dissipation. Approximate rogue wave solutions of the equation are presented and discussed. The results shed some lights on the effects of wind and dissipation on the formation of rogue waves.     

Early detection of rogue waves in a chaotic wave field

The ability to unveil growing rogue waves in the ocean is essential for safe marine travel in stormy conditions. This vital problem has not been adequately addressed so far. We show that the specific triangular spectra of rogue waves can be detected at early stages of their development in a chaotic wave field. Continuously measuring the spectra of various parts of the wave field allows us to find a rogue wave before the dangerous peak appears. This possibility of early detection is a necessary part of a rogue wave early-warning system.     

Modulational instability,rogue waves,and envelope solitons in opposite polarity dusty plasmas

Dust-acoustic (DA) waves (DAWs) and their modulational instability (MI) have been investigated theoretically in a plasma system consisting of inertial opposite polarity (positively and negatively) warm adiabatic charged dust grains as well as inertialess non-extensive $q?$distributed electrons and non-thermal ions. A nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is derived by using the reductive perturbation method. It has been observed from the analysis of NLSE that the modulationally stable solitary DAWs give rise to the existence of dark envelope solitons, and that the modulationally unstable solitary DAWs give rise to the existence of bright envelope solitons or rogue structures. It is also observed for the fast mode of DAWs that the basic features (viz. stability of the DAWs, MI, growth rate, amplitude, and width of the DA rogue waves, etc.) are significantly modified by the related plasma parameters (viz. dust masses, dust charge state, non-extensive parameter q, and non-thermal parameter α). The results of our present investigation might be useful for understanding different nonlinear electrostatic phenomena in both space (viz. ionosphere and mesosphere) and laboratory plasmas (viz. high intensity laser irradiation and hot cathode discharge).     

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.     

Shallow water rogue wavetrains in nonlinear optical fibers

In addition to deep-water rogue waves which develop from the modulation instability of an optical CW, wave propagation in optical fibers may also produce shallow water rogue waves. These extreme wave events are generated in the modulationally stable normal dispersion regime. A suitable phase or frequency modulation of a CW laser leads to chirp-free and flat-top pulses or flaticons which exhibit a stable self-similar evolution. Upon collision, flaticons at different carrier frequencies, which may also occur in wavelength division multiplexed transmission systems, merge into a single, high-intensity, temporally and spatially localized rogue pulse.     

Existence of traveling wave solutions of a high-order nonlinear acoustic wave equation

In this Letter, we present an analytical study of a high-order acoustic wave equation in one dimension, and reformulate a previously given equation in terms of an expansion of the acoustic Mach number. We search for non-trivial traveling wave solutions to this equation, and also discuss the accuracy of acoustic wave equations in terms of the range of Mach numbers for which they are valid.     

Double-Wronskian solitons and rogue waves for the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation in an inhomogeneous plasma

Plasmas are the main constituent of the Universe and the cause of a vast variety of astrophysical, space and terrestrial phenomena. The inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation is hereby investigated, which describes the propagation of an electron plasma wave packet with a large wavelength and small amplitude in a medium with a parabolic density and constant interactional damping. By virtue of the double Wronskian identities, the equation is proved to possess the double-Wronskian soliton solutions. Analytic one- and two-soliton solutions are discussed. Amplitude and velocity of the soliton are related to the damping coefficient. Asymptotic analysis is applied for us to investigate the interaction between the two solitons. Overtaking interaction, head-on interaction and bound state of the two solitons are given. From the non-zero potential Lax pair, the first- and second-order rogue-wave solutions are constructed via a generalized Darboux transformation, and influence of the linear and parabolic density profiles on the background density and amplitude of the rogue wave is discussed.     

Periodic travelling and non-travelling wave solutions of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with imaginary mass

Exact solutions, including the periodic travelling and non-travelling wave solutions, are presented for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with imaginary mass. Some arbitrary functions are permitted in the periodic non-travelling wave solutions, which contribute to various high dimensional nonlinear structures.     

On Nth-order rogue wave solution to nonlinear coupled dispersionless evolution equations

Data-driven parity-time-symmetric vector rogue wave solutions of multi-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Rogue waves are a class of nonlinear waves with extreme amplitudes, which usually appear suddenly and disappear without any trace. Recently, the parity-time ($\mathcal {PT}$)-symmetric vector rogue waves (RWs) of multi-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation ($n$-NLSE) are usually derived by the methods of integrable systems. In this paper, we utilize the multi-stage physics-informed neural networks (MS-PINNs) algorithm to derive the data-driven $\mathcal {PT}$ symmetric vector RWs solution of coupled NLS system in elliptic and X-shapes domains with nonzero boundary condition. The results of the experiment show that the multi-stage physics-informed neural networks are quite feasible and effective for multi-component nonlinear physical systems in the above domains and boundary conditions.     

Dark and composite rogue waves in the coupled Hirota equations

The intriguing dark and composite rogue wave dynamics in a coupled Hirota system are unveiled, based on the exact explicit rational solutions obtained under the assumption of equal background height. It is found that a dark rogue wave state would occur as a result of the strong coupling between two field components with large wavenumber difference, and there would appear plenty of composite structures that are attributed to the specific wavenumber difference and the free choice of three independent structural parameters. The coexistence of different fundamental rogue waves in such a coupled system is also demonstrated.

On Nth-order rogue wave solution to the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation

In this Letter, the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger (GNLS) equation is investigated by Darboux matrix method. A generalized Darboux transformation (DT) of the GNLS equation is constructed with the help of the gauge transformation for an Ablowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur (AKNS) type GNLS spectral problem, from which a unified formula of Nth-order rogue wave solution to the GNLS equation is given. In particular, the first and second-order rogue wave solutions to the GNLS equation are explicitly illustrated through some figures.     

Novel soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation model

The methodology developed provides for a systematic way to find an infinite number of the novel stable bright and dark "soliton islands" in a "sea of solitary waves" of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation model with varying dispersion, nonlinearity, and gain or absorption. It is shown that solitons exist only under certain conditions and the parameter functions describing dispersion, nonlinearity, and gain or absorption inhomogeneities cannot be chosen independently. Fundamental soliton management regimes are discovered.     

Novel travelling wave structures: few-cycle-pulse solitons and soliton molecules

Solitary waves and rogue waves in a plasma with nonthermal electrons featuring Tsallis distribution

In this Letter, we discuss the electron acoustic (EA) waves in plasmas, which consist of nonthermal hot electrons featuring the Tsallis distribution, and obtain the corresponding governing equation, that is, a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. By means of Modulation Instability (MI) analysis of the EA waves, it is found that both electron acoustic solitary wave and rogue wave can exist in such plasmas. Basing on the Darboux transformation method, we derive the analytical expressions of nonlinear solutions of NLS equations, such as single/double solitary wave solutions and single/double rogue wave solutions. The existential regions and amplitude of solitary wave solutions and the rogue wave solutions are influenced by the nonextensive parameter q and nonthermal parameter α. Moreover, the interaction of solitary wave and how to postpone the excitation of rogue wave are also studied.     

Emergence of rogue waves from optical turbulence

We provide some general physical insights into the emergence of rogue wave events from optical turbulence by analyzing the long term evolution of the field. Depending on the amount of incoherence in the system (i.e., Hamiltonian), we identify three turbulent regimes that lead to the emergence of specific rogue wave events: (i) persistent and coherent rogue quasi-solitons, (ii) intermittent-like rogue quasi-solitons that appear and disappear erratically, and (iii) sporadic rogue waves events that emerge from turbulent fluctuations as bursts of light or intense flashes.
