It is shown that a large subset of initial data with finite energy ($L^2$ norm)evolves nearly linearly in nonlinear Schr\" odinger equation with periodic boundary conditions. These new solutions are not perturbations of the known ones such…
The Kerr nonlinearity allows for exact analytic soliton solutions in 1+1D. While nothing excludes that these solitons form in naturally-occurring real-world 3D settings as solitary walls or stripes, their observation has previously been…
We uncover a strong coupling between nonlinearity and diffraction in a photonic crystal at the supercollimation point. We show this is modeled by a nonlinear diffraction term in a nonlinear schroedinger type equation, in which the…

We analyze the existence, stability, and mobility of gap solitons (GSs) in a periodic photonic structure built into a nonlocal self-defocusing medium. Counter-intuitively, the GSs are supported even by a highly nonlocal nonlinearity, which…

We consider a periodic magnetic Schr\"odinger operator on a noncompact Riemannian manifold $M$ such that $H^1(M, \RR)=0$ endowed with a properly discontinuous cocompact isometric action of a discrete group. We assume that there is no…
We consider a class of nonlinear Schrodinger / Gross-Pitaevskii (NLS/GP) equations with periodic potentials, having an even symmetry. We construct "solitons", centered about any point of symmetry of the potential. For focusing (attractive)…
Existence and stability of PT-symmetric gap solitons in a periodic structure with defocusing nonlocal nonlinearity are studied both theoretically and numerically. We find that, for any degree of nonlocality, gap solitons are always unstable…
We obtain localized field configurations with finite energy in a ($2+1$)-dimensional model with Maxwell and Chern-Simons gauge terms coupled to a massive complex scalar field. These non-topological solitons are characterized by the $U(1)$…
We present a set of smooth infinite energy global solutions (without spatial symmetry) to the non-integrable, nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations on $\Bbb R$. These solutions are space-time quasi-periodic with two frequencies each. Previous…
We consider minimising $p$-harmonic maps from three-dimensional domains to the real projective plane, for $1<p<2$. These maps arise as least-energy configurations in variational models for nematic liquid crystals. We show that the singular…
We obtain multiplicity results for a class of first-order superquadratic Hamiltonian systems and a class of indefinite superquadratic elliptic systems which lead to the study of strongly indefinite functionals. There is no assumption to the…

We prove the existence of quasi-periodic solutions for wave equations with a multiplicative potential on T^d, d \geq 1, and finitely differentiable nonlinearities, quasi-periodically forced in time. The only external parameter is the length…
There is a lack of knowledge about the topological invariants of non-linear $d$-dimensional systems with a periodic potential. We study these systems through a classification of the linearized NLS/GP equation around their soliton solutions.…
