We describe laboratory experiments in a 2D wave tank that aim at building up and monitor 2D shallow water soliton gas. The water surface elevation is obtained over a large ($\sim 100\,\text{m}^2$) domain, with centimetre-resolution, by…
In this study, we investigate the Klein-Gordon-Zakharov system with a focus on identifying multi-soliton solutions. Specifically, for a given number $N$ of solitons, we demonstrate the existence of a multi-soliton solution that…
The role of multiple soliton and breather interactions in formation of very high waves is disclosed within the framework of integrable modified Korteweg - de Vries (mKdV) equation. Optimal conditions for the focusing of many solitons are…
Solitons are non-dispersive wave solutions that arise in a diverse range of nonlinear systems, stablised by a focussing or defocussing nonlinearity. First observed in shallow water, solitons have subsequently been studied in many other…

Ball lightning is one of the most mysterious atmospheric phenomena, whose long lifetime, penetrative ability, and stability are difficult to explain with traditional physical models. This paper proposes a novel theoretical framework,…

We construct families of ordinary and gap solitons (GSs), including solitary vortices, in the two-dimensional (2D) system based on the nonlinear-Schr\"Aodinger/Gross-Pitaevskii equation with the 2D or quasi-1D (Q1D) periodic linear…
We consider KdV-type equations with $C^1$ nonhomogeneous nonlinearities and small dispersion $\varepsilon$. The first result consists in the conclusion that, in the leading term with respect to $\varepsilon$, the solitary waves in this…
It is well known that the nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation is a very important integrable equation. Ablowitz and Musslimani introduced and investigated an integrable nonlocal NLS equation through inverse scattering transform. Very…
