Pattern Formation and Solitons
In this paper, we apply a machine-learning approach to learn traveling solitary waves across various families of partial differential equations (PDEs). Our approach integrates a novel interpretable neural network (NN) architecture, called…
We investigate the dynamics of fast two-pulse collisions in linear diffusion-advection systems with weak quadratic loss in spatial dimension 2. We introduce a two-dimensional perturbation method, which generalizes the perturbation method…
We study the excitations of dark solitons in a nonlinear optical fiber with the second- and fourth-order dispersion, and find the emergence of striped dark solitons (SDSs) and some multi-dark-soliton bound states. The SDSs can exhibit…
In this paper we consider a classical model of gasless combustion in a one dimensional formulation under the assumption of ignition temperature kinetics. We study the propagation of flame fronts in this model when the initial distribution…
In two-component non-linear Schr\"odinger equations, the force exerted by incident monochromatic plane waves on an embedded dark soliton and on dark-bright-type solitons is investigated, both perturbatively and by numerical simulations.…
In this paper, we investigate the role of four-wave mixing effect on the structure of nondegenerate vector solitons and their collision dynamics. For this purpose, we consider the generalized coupled nonlinear Schr\"odinger (GCNLS) system…
It is well known that wave collapses can emerge from the focusing one-dimensional (1-D) Majda-McLaughlin-Tabak (MMT) model as a result of modulational instability. However, how these wave collapses affect the spectral properties and…
We report results of systematic investigation of dynamics featured by moving two-dimensional (2D) solitons generated by the fractional nonlinear Schroedinger equation (FNLSE) with the cubic-quintic nonlinearity. The motion of solitons is a…
The Optical Darboux Transformer is introduced as a photonic device which performs the Darboux transformation directly in the optical domain. This enables two major advances for signal processing based on the nonlinear Fourier transform: (i)…
We study a spherical, self-gravitating fluid model, which finds applications in cosmic structure formation. We argue that since the system features nonlinearity and gravity-induced dispersion, the emergence of solitons becomes possible. We…
The generalized recurrence plot is a modern tool for quantification of complex spatial patterns. Its application spans the analysis of trabecular bone structures, Turing patterns, turbulent spatial plankton patterns, and fractals.…
There is considerable fundamental theoretical and applicative interest in obtaining two-dimensional rogue wave similar to one-dimensional rogue wave of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Here, we first time proposes a self-mapping…
The question of collapse (blow-up) in finite time is investigated for the two-dimensional (non-integrable) space-time nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equations. Starting from the two-dimensional extension of the well known AKNS q,r system,…
Localized phenomena abound in nature and throughout the physical sciences. Some universal mechanisms for localization have been characterized, such as in the snaking bifurcations of localized steady states in pattern-forming partial…
We present an analytical model of the self-consistent equilibrium of a magnetic flux rope which is obtained in cylindrical geometry. The equilibrium azimuthal magnetic field and plasma pressure are determined in a self-consistent way…
We study existence, asymptotics, and stability of spiral waves in a driven curvature approximation, supplemented with an anchoring condition on a circle of finite radius. We analyze the motion of curves written as graphs in polar…
A phenomenon of emergence of stability islands in phase-space is reported for two periodic potentials with tiling symmetries, one square and the other hexagonal, inspired by bidimensional Hamiltonian models of optical lattices. The…
We study a semilinear hyperbolic system of PDEs which arises as a continuum approximation of the discrete nonlinear dimer array model introduced by Hadad, Vitelli and Alu (HVA) in \cite{HVA17}. We classify the system's traveling waves, and…
We present a two-dimensional nonlinear equation to govern the dynamics of disturbances in a rotating self-gravitating fluid. The nonlinear term of the equation has the form of a Poisson bracket (Jacobian), and the linear part contains,…
Parametric oscillators are examples of externally driven systems that can exhibit two stable states with opposite phase depending on the initial conditions. In this work, we propose to study what happens when the external forcing is…
