We study spatial and temporal solitons in the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric coupler with gain in one waveguide and loss in the other. Stability properties of the high- and low-frequency solitons are found to be completely determined by a single…
Stability of solitons in parity-time (PT)-symmetric periodic potentials (optical lattices) is analyzed in both one- and two-dimensional systems. First we show analytically that when the strength of the gain-loss component in the PT lattice…

We propose a lattice model, in both one- and multidimensional versions, which may give rise to matching conditions necessary for the generation of solitons through the second-harmonic generation. The model describes an array of linearly…
