Pattern Formation and Solitons
The presence of spatial inhomogeneity in a nonlinear medium restricts the formation of Solitary Waves (SW) on a discrete set of positions whereas a nonlocal nonlinearity tends to smooth the medium response by averaging over neighboring…
We consider a damped, parametrically driven discrete nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation, that models coupled pendula and micromechanical arrays, among others. To study the equation, one usually uses a small-amplitude wave ansatz, that reduces…
The wave properties of solitons in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with attractive interactions or repulsive interactions are investigated in detail. We demonstrate that dark solitons in one of component admit interference and…
We explore the consequences of introducing higher-order interactions in a geometric complex network of Morris-Lecar neurons. We focus on the regime where travelling synchronization waves are observed out of a first-neighbours based…
In this work, we consider the electromechanical density pulse as a coupled solitary waves represented by a longitudinal compression wave and an out-of-plane transversal wave (i.e., perpendicular to the membrane surface). We analyzed using,…
We investigate the existence and stability of dissipative soliton solution in a system described by complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equation with asymmetric complex potential, which is obtained from original parity reflection - time reversal…
We explore the consequences of incorporating parity and time reversal ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetries on the dynamics of nonreciprocal light propagation exhibited by a class of nonuniform periodic structures known as chirped…
Interaction of a solitary wave with a long background wave is studied within the framework of rotation modified Benjamin-Ono equation describing internal waves in a deep fluid. With the help of asymptotic method, we find stationary and…
We consider a discrete nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations with damping and external drive. Using a small amplitude ansatz, one usually approximates the equation using a damped, driven discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Here, we show…
The study of pattern emergence together with exploration of the exemplar Turing model is enjoying a renaissance both from theoretical and experimental perspective. Here, we implement a stability analysis of spatially dependent reaction…
We examine a fractional version of the discrete Nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger (dnls) equation, where the usual discrete laplacian is replaced by a fractional discrete laplacian. This leads to the replacement of the usual nearest-neighbor…
The Korteweg-de Vries and Benjamin-Ono nonlinear wave equations can describe solitary waves, all of which propagate in the same direction and which emerge from collisions with their shapes unchanged. There are technical challenges to giving…
A time crystal is a time dependent physical system that does not reach a standstill, even in state of minimum energy. Here we show that the stability of a time crystal can be enhanced by its topology. For this we simulate time crystals made…
We study the dynamics and pairwise interactions of dark soliton stripes in the two-dimensional defocusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. By employing a variational approach we reduce the dynamics for dark soliton stripes to a set of…
We examine a one-dimensional nonlinear (Kerr) waveguide array which contains a single "void" waveguide where the nonlinearity is identically zero. We uncover a new family of nonlinear localized modes centered at or near the void, and their…
Competing nonlinearities, such as the cubic (Kerr) and quintic nonlinear terms whose strengths are of opposite signs (the coefficients in front of the nonlinearities), exist in various physical media (in particular, in optical and…
Optical frequency combs (OFCs), consisting of a set of phase locked equally spaced laser frequency lines, have enabled a great leap in precision spectroscopy and metrology since seminal works of H\"ansch et al. . Nowadays, OFCs are…
We consider a bulk-membrane-coupled partial differential equation in which a single diffusion equation posed within the unit ball is coupled to a two-component reaction diffusion equation posed on the bounding unit sphere through a linear…
We perform a numerical study of the initial-boundary value problem, with vanishing boundary conditions, of a driven nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) with linear damping and a Gaussian driver. We identify Peregrine-like rogue…
A family of solitary waves is constructed in Frenkel-Kontorova model and its continuum and quasi-continuum approximations. Each solitary waves is characterised by the number of local maxima in its profile and a relation between external…
