Dark matter-wave solitons in the dimensionality crossover

Abstract

We consider the statics and dynamics of dark matter-wave solitons in the dimensionality crossover regime from 3D to 1D. There, using the nonpolynomial Schr\"{o}dinger mean-field model, we find that the anomalous mode of the Bogoliubov spectrum has an eigenfrequency which coincides with the soliton oscillation frequency obtained by the 3D Gross-Pitaevskii model. We show that substantial deviations (of order of 10% or more) from the characteristic frequency ωz/2\omega_{z}/\sqrt{2} (ωz\omega_{z} being the longitudinal trap frequency) are possible even in the purely 1D regime.
