New Double Wronskian Solutions of the Whitham-Broer-Kaup System: Asymptotic Analysis and Resonant Soliton Interactions

In this paper, by the Darboux transformation together with the Wronskian technique, we construct new double Wronskian solutions for the Whitham-Broer-Kaup (WBK) system. Some new determinant identities are developed in the verification of the solutions. Based on analyzing the asymptotic behavior of new double Wronskian functions as t → ±∞, we make a complete characterization of asymptotic solitons for the non-singular, non-trivial and irreducible soliton solutions. It turns out that the solutions are the linear superposition of two fully-resonant multi-soliton configurations, in each of which the amplitudes, velocities and numbers of asymptotic solitons are in general not equal as t → ±∞. To illustrate, we present the figures for several examples of soliton interactions occurring in the WBK system.     

The one and a half monopoles solution of the SU(2) Yang–Mills–Higgs field theory

Recently we have reported on the existence of finite energy SU(2) Yang–Mills–Higgs particle of one-half topological charge. In this paper, we show that this one-half monopole can co-exist with a ’t Hooft–Polyakov monopole. The magnetic charge of the one-half monopole is of opposite sign to the magnetic charge of the ’t Hooft–Polyakov monopole. However the net magnetic charge of the configuration is zero due to the presence of a semi-infinite Dirac string along the positive z$z$-axis that carries the other half of the magnetic monopole charge. The solution possesses gauge potentials that are singular along the z$z$-axis, elsewhere they are regular. The total energy is found to increase with the strength of the Higgs field self-coupling constant λ$\lambda$. However the dipole separation and the magnetic dipole moment decrease with λ$\lambda$. This solution is non-BPS even in the BPS limit when the Higgs self-coupling constant vanishes.     

Interaction of solitary waves for the generalized KdV equation

We consider a class of generalized KdV equations with a small parameter and nonlinearities of the type u^m. We create a finite differences scheme to simulate the solution of the Cauchy problem and present some numerical results for the problem of the solitary waves interaction. In particular, we consider sufficient condition under which pairs of solitary waves interact, in the asymptotic sense, in accordance with the soliton scenario.     

The integrability and parametric representation of a hierarchy of soliton equations

In this paper after having obtained the Lax pair of a hierarchy of soliton equations,we discuss the parametric representation for finite-band solutions of the stationary solitonequation, and prove it can be represented as a Hamiltonian system which is integrable inLiouville sense. The nonconfocal involutive integral representations {Fm} are obtained also.In the condition of finite-band solutions of the soliton equation, the time and space can bedevided inio two Hamiltonian systems, so the fi…     

Soliton experiments in stimulated Raman scattering

Experimental observations of solitons in stimulated Raman scattering are reported. Soliton formation resulted from the introduction of a phase shift in the incident Stokes beam as predicted by theory. Pulse sharpening and retardation on propagation in the Raman medium have been observed along with amplitude diminution. The first two features were predicted and the third was not. Spontaneous soliton formation has been observed in the absense of any amplitude modulation or apparent phase shift in the optical fields, indicating that additional sets of initial conditions may result in soliton formation.Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy.     

Statistical Dynamics of Solitons in Optical Fibers

The soliton perturbation theory is used to study and analyze the stochastic perturbation of optical solitons in addition to deterministic perturbations of optical solitons that are governed by the nonlinear Schro¨dinger's equation. The Langevin equations are derived and analyzed. The deterministic perturbations that are considered here are of both Hamiltonian as well as of non-Hamiltonian type.

A Petrov-Galerkin method for equal width equation

The equal width equation is solved numerically by Petrov-Galerkin method using linear hat function and quadratic B-spline function as trial and test functions respectively. Product approximation has been used in this method. A linear stability analysis of the scheme is shown to be conditionally stable. Test problems including the single soliton and the interaction of solitons are used to validate the suggested method, which is found to be accurate and efficient. The Maxwellian initial condition pulse and the development of an undular bore are also studied.     

Solitons and Bäcklund transformation for a generalized (3+1)-dimensional variable-coefficient B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation in fluid dynamics

Under investigation in this paper is a generalized (3+1)-dimensional variable-coefficient B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation, which describes the propagation of nonlinear waves in fluid dynamics. Bilinear form and Bäcklund transformation are derived by virtue of the Bell polynomials. Besides, the one- and two-soliton solutions are constructed via the Hirota method.
