We study dynamics of dark solitons in the theory of the DNLS equation by the method based on imposing the condition that this dynamics must be Hamiltonian. Combining this condition with Stokes' remark that relationships for harmonic linear…
We apply the idea of using a combination of virial inequalities and Kato smoothing, previously applied to NLS and generalized KdV pure power equations to Euler-Poisson: we assume that a solution remains very close for all times to a soliton…
We present a review of the normal form theory for weakly dispersive nonlinear wave equations where the leading order phenomena can be described by the KdV equation. This is an infinite dimensional extension of the well-known…
This work studies the instability of stochastic scalar reaction diffusion equations, driven by a multiplicative noise that is white in time and smooth in space, near to zero, which is assumed to be a fixed point for the equation. We prove…
In this work we revisit a classical problem of traveling waves in a damped Frenkel-Kontorova lattice driven by a constant external force. We compute these solutions as fixed points of a nonlinear map and obtain the corresponding kinetic…

In this paper we study dynamics of solitons in the generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) with an external potential in all dimensions except for 2. For a certain class of nonlinearities such an equation has solutions which are…

We derive a general theorem relating the energy, momentum and velocity of any solitary wave solution of the generalized KdV equation which enables us to relate the amplitude, width, and momentum to the velocity of these solutions. We obtain…
We revisit the asymptotic analysis of the KdV shock problem in the soliton region. Our approach is based on the analysis of the associated Riemann-Hilbert problem and we extend the domain of validity of the asymptotic formulas while at the…
This paper is concerned with strong blow-up instability (Definition 1.3) for standing wave solutions to the system of the quadratic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations. In the single case, namely the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with power…
Multi-soliton solutions, i.e. solutions behaving as the sum of N given solitons as $t\to +\infty$, were constructed in previous works for the L2 critical and subcritical (NLS) and (gKdV) equations. In this paper, we extend the construction…
We show analytically, numerically, and experimentally that a transversely stable one-dimensional [(1+1)D] bright Kerr soliton can exist in a 3D bulk medium. The transverse instability of the soliton is completely eliminated if it is made…
In this paper we prove rigidity for blowup solutions to the focusing, mass-critical nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation in dimensions $2 \leq d \leq 15$ with mass equal to the mass of the soliton. We prove that the only such solutions are…
We prove pointwise-in-time dispersive estimates for solutions to the generalized Korteweg--de Vries (gKdV) equation. In particular, for solutions to the mass-critical model, we assume only that initial data lie in $\dot{H}^{\frac{1}{4}}…
The KdV-Burgers equation is a canonical model describing the interplay between nonlinearity, viscosity and dispersion, and it admits viscous-dispersive shocks as traveling wave solutions. In this paper, we establish an $L^2$-contraction…

We show that the Cauchy problem for the KdV equation can be solved by the inverse scattering transform (IST) for any initial data bounded from below, decaying sufficiently rapidly at plus infinity, but unrestricted otherwise. Thus our…
