A diffractive study of optical parametric interactions in nonlinear photonic crystals

With the nonlinear diffraction concept, we present a diffractive study of optical parametric interactions in nonlinear photonic crystals. The nonlinear diffraction concept enables the design of complicated nonlinear photonic crystal structures in an intuitive way. We show that there are two basic linear sequences, the anti-stacking and the para-stacking sequences, existing in a one-dimensional structure; and we present the realization of multiple phase-matching resonances in the combination of the two basic sequences. The parameters affecting the structure factor of a two-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystal are investigated, which indicate that not only the Ewald construction but also the relative domain size determines two-dimensional nonlinear diffractions.     

Perturbation Expansion Method and Effective Medium Approximation for Effective Conductivity of Nonlinear Composite Media

In this paper, we establish an effective medium approximation (EMA) for effective conductivity of nonlinear composite media. As an example, we consider a two-dimensional composite medium with a cylindrical inclusion embedded in a homogeneous host, both the host and the inclusion having nonlinear current-voltage constitutive relations, and apply the perturbation expansion method to derive its analytic series solution. Using the nonlinear EMA we derive the formulae of the first, the third and the fifth-order effective conductivities, which are valid for nonlinear composite media with middle concentration of inclusion.

In this paper, by using the parity operator as well as the nonlinear displacement-type operator, we define new operators which by the action of them on the vacuum state of the radiation field, superposition of two nonlinear coherent states and two-mode entangled nonlinear coherent states are generated. Also, we show that via the generalization of the presented method, the superposition of more than two nonlinear coherent states and n-mode entangled nonlinear coherent states can be generated.

Nonlinear three-wave interaction in photonic crystals

We present a multi-scale analysis of nonlinear three-wave-interaction processes in photonic crystals. Based on photonic Bloch functions as carrier waves, we derive the effective nonlinear coupled wave equations that govern pulse propagation in these systems and obtain the corresponding effective photonic crystal parameters directly from photonic band-structure computations. As an illustration, we show how hitherto inaccessible radiation-conversion processes such as wave-front reversal of optical pulses can be realized. Furthermore, we describe a novel regime of nonlinear three-wave interaction in photonic crystals associated with the nearly degenerate case and show how these results may be utilized to study experimentally certain problems from plasma physics and hydrodynamics in the context of nonlinear photonic crystals.     

Nonlinear all-photonic-crystal Fabry-Perot resonator with angle-independent bistability

We propose a nonlinear all-photonic-crystal (PhC) Fabry-Perot cavity tuned to the subdiffractive regime of the interior PhC, and we study angular-resolved nonlinear propagation of monochromatic plane wave excitations. With rigorous numerical simulations, we show that, for sufficiently large negative pump detunings and a focusing nonlinearity, the transmitted field has a bistable dependence on the pump field. Moreover, we reveal that, in contrast to a homogeneous resonator for different inclinations, the hysteresis curve is virtually unchanged for a fairly wide angular range. This may pave the way for obtaining novel kinds of nonlinear localized solutions in driven nonlinear resonators.     

Effective Nonlinear Response of the Nonlinear Random Mixed Composites

A simple self-consistent mean-field theory is used to study the nonlinear composites consisting of linear and strongly nonlinear materials or strongly nonlinear materials with different nonlinear exponents. The effective nonlinear response obtained is compared with simulation data. Good agreement is found. Meanwhile, we study the effect of granular shapes (depolarization factor g) in different external applied fields on the nonlinear response of nonlinear random composites. It is found that the factor g affects the effective nonlinear response greatly in certain conditions.     

Pathological tremors: Deterministic chaos or nonlinear stochastic oscillators?

Pathological tremors exhibit a nonlinear oscillation that is not strictly periodic. We investigate whether the deviation from periodicity is due to nonlinear deterministic chaotic dynamics or due to nonlinear stochastic dynamics. To do so, we apply various methods from linear and nonlinear time series analysis to tremor time series. The results of the different methods suggest that the considered types of pathological tremors represent nonlinear stochastic second order processes. Finally, we evaluate whether two earlier proposed features capturing nonlinear effects in the time series allow for a discrimination between two pathological forms of tremor for a much larger sample of time series than previously investigated.

Similarity transformations and exact solutions for a family of higher-dimensional generalized Boussinesq equations

In this Letter, we investigate explicitly exact solutions of the higher-dimensional generalized Boussinesq equation. We firstly reduce this equation to one nonlinear ODE and a set of two nonlinear homogeneous PDEs via semi-traveling wave similarity transformation. And then we study solutions of the obtained nonlinear ODE and the set of two nonlinear homogeneous PDEs, respectively. Finally, we can obtain many types of exact solutions of higher-dimensional generalized Boussinesq equation via the semi-traveling wave similarity transformations. These solutions contain an arbitrary function which leads to abundant structures.     

Mapping nonlinear gravity into General Relativity with nonlinear electrodynamics

We show that families of nonlinear gravity theories formulated in a metric-affine approach and coupled to a nonlinear theory of electrodynamics can be mapped into general relativity (GR) coupled to another nonlinear theory of electrodynamics. This allows to generate solutions of the former from those of the latter using purely algebraic transformations. This correspondence is explicitly illustrated with the Eddington-inspired Born–Infeld theory of gravity, for which we consider a family of nonlinear electrodynamics and show that, under the map, preserve their algebraic structure. For the particular case of Maxwell electrodynamics coupled to Born–Infeld gravity we find, via this correspondence, a Born–Infeld-type nonlinear electrodynamics on the GR side. Solving the spherically symmetric electrovacuum case for the latter, we show how the map provides directly the right solutions for the former. This procedure opens a new door to explore astrophysical and cosmological scenarios in nonlinear gravity theories by exploiting the full power of the analytical and numerical methods developed within the framework of GR.     

Spatiotemporal self-similar nonlinear tunneling effects in the (3 + 1)-dimensional inhomogeneous nonlinear medium with the linear and nonlinear gain

With the help of two kinds of similarity transformations connected with the elliptic equation, at first we analytically derive spatiotemporal self-similar solutions of the (3 + 1)-dimensional inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the linear and nonlinear gain. Then we give out the mutually exclusive parameter domains for bright and dark similaritons. Finally, we discuss nonlinear tunneling effects for spatiotemporal similaritons passing through the nonlinear barrier or well. Results show that bright and dark similaritons in the normal and anomalous dispersion regions have opposite dynamic behaviors.     

Solitary wave for a nonintegrable discrete nonlinear Schr?dinger equation in nonlinear optical waveguide arrays

We study a nonintegrable discrete nonlinear Schr?dinger (dNLS) equation with the term of nonlinear nearest-neighbor interaction occurred in nonlinear optical waveguide arrays. By using discrete Fourier transformation, we obtain numerical approximations of stationary and travelling solitary wave solutions of the nonintegrable dNLS equation. The analysis of stability of stationary solitary waves is performed. It is shown that the nonlinear nearest-neighbor interaction term has great influence on the form of solitary wave. The shape of solitary wave is important in the electric field propagating. If we neglect the nonlinear nearest-neighbor interaction term, much important information in the electric field propagating may be missed. Our numerical simulation also demonstrates the difference of chaos phenomenon between the nonintegrable dNLS equation with nonlinear nearest-neighbor interaction and another nonintegrable dNLS equation without the term.     

Stochastic Processes and Mean Field Systems Defined by Nonlinear Markov Chains: An Illustration for a Model of Evolutionary Population Dynamics

In physics, there is a growing interest in studying stochastic processes described by evolution equations such as nonlinear master equations and nonlinear Fokker–Planck equations that define the so-called nonlinear Markov processes and are nonlinear with respect to probability densities. In this context, however, relatively little is known about nonlinear Markov processes defined by nonlinear Markov chains. In the present work, we demonstrate explicitly how the nonlinear Markov chain approach can be carried out by addressing a model for evolutionary population dynamics. In line with the nonlinear Markov chain approach, we derive a measure that tells us how attractive it is for a biological entity to evolve towards a particular biological type. Likewise, a measure for the noise level of the evolutionary process is obtained. Both measures are found to be implicitly time dependent. Finally, a simulation scheme for the many-body system corresponding to the Markov chain model is discussed.

New applications of the homogeneous balance principle

The homogeneous balance principle has been widely applied to the exploration of nonlinear transformation, exact solutions (especially solitary wave solution), dromion and similarity reduction to the nonlinear partial differential equations in mathematical physics. In this paper, we use the homogeneous balance principle to derive B?cklund transformations for nonlinear partial differential equations that have more nonlinear terms and more highest-order partial derivative terms. With the aid of the B?cklund transformations derived here, we could obtain exact solutions to the nonlinear partial differential equations. The Davey－Stewartson equation and the Nizhnik－Novikov－Veselov equation are considered as the examples.     

Tripartite Nonlinear Entangled State Representations in Quantum Mechanics

Based on the technique of integral within an ordered product of nonlinear bosonic operators we construct a kind of tripartite nonlinear entangled states, which can make up a complete set. As its application, we also derive nonlinear 3-mode charge-related entangled state. The essential point for constructing these states lies in choosing the appropriate charge operator.
