We study the behavior of the soliton solutions of the equation i((\partial{\psi})/(\partialt))=-(1/(2m)){\Delta}{\psi}+(1/2)W_{{\epsilon}}'({\psi})+V(x){\psi} where W_{{\epsilon}}' is a suitable nonlinear term which is singular for…

The nonlinear Schrodinger equation supports solitons -- self-interacting, localized states that behave as nearly independent objects. We exhibit solitons with self-induced nonreciprocal dynamics in a discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equation.…
