It is known that, in continuous media, composite solitons with hidden vorticity, which are built of two mutually symmetric vortical components whose total angular momentum is zero, may be stable while their counterparts with explicit…
The stabilization of one-dimensional solitons by a nonlinear lattice against the critical collapse in the focusing quintic medium is a challenging issue. We demonstrate that this purpose can be achieved by combining a…
It has been recently demonstrated that self-defocusing (SDF) media with the cubic nonlinearity, whose local coefficient grows from the center to periphery fast enough, support stable bright solitons, without the use of any linear potential.…
It is commonly known that two-dimensional mean-field models of optical and matter waves with the cubic self-attraction cannot produce stable solitons in free space because of the occurrence of the collapse in the same setting. By means of…
Stable ring vortex solitons, featuring a bright-shape, appear to be very rare in nature. However, here we show that they exist and can be made dynamically stable in defocusing cubic nonlinear media with an imprinted Bessel optical lattice.…
We investigate the existence and stability of three-dimensional (3D) solitons supported by cylindrical Bessel lattices (BLs) in self-focusing media. If the lattice strength exceeds a threshold value, we show numerically, and using the…

Fluid configurations in three-dimensions, displaying a plausible decay of regularity in a finite time, are suitably built and examined. Vortex rings are the primary ingredients in this study. The full Navier-Stokes system is converted into…
The dark solitons observed in a large variety of nonlinear media are unstable against the modulational (snake) instabilities and can break in vortex streets. This behavior has been investigated in nonlinear optical crystals and ultracold…
