Isolated many-body systems far from equilibrium may exhibit scaling dynamics with universal exponents indicating the proximity of the time-evolution to a non-thermal fixed point. We find universal dynamics connected with the occurrence of…

Rogue waves (RWs) are unexpectedly strong excitations emerging from an otherwise tranquil background. The nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE), a ubiquitous model with wide applications to fluid mechanics, optics and plasmas, exhibits…
