The time-delayed Adler equation is arguably the simplest model for an injected semiconductor laser with coherent injection and optical feedback. It is able to reproduce the existence of topological localized structures (LSs) and their rich…
Very diluted Bose gas placed into a disordered environment falls into a fragmented localized state. At some critical density the repulsion between particles overcomes the disorder. The gas transits into a coherent superfluid state. In this…
