The Ablowitz-Ladik chain is an integrable discretized version of the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation. We report on a novel underlying Hamiltonian particle system with properties similar to the ones known for the classical Toda chain and…

We study the concentrated NLS on ${\mathbf R^n}$, with power non-linearities, driven by the fractional Laplacian, $(-\Delta)^s, s>\frac{n}{2}$. We construct the solitary waves explicitly, in an optimal range of the parameters, so that they…

We note that the non-orthogonality of states and their coincidence at the degeneracy point are both admitted by nonlinear Hermitian systems and linear non-Hermitian systems. These striking characteristics motivate us to re-investigate the…

We present a statistical equilibrium model of self-organization in a class of focusing, nonintegrable nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equations. The theory predicts that the asymptotic-time behavior of the NLS system is characterized by the…

We introduce a discrete linear lossy system with an embedded "hot spot" (HS), i.e., a site carrying linear gain and complex cubic nonlinearity. The system can be used to model an array of optical or plasmonic waveguides, where selective…

Certain disorder-free Hamiltonians can be non-ergodic due to a \emph{strong fragmentation} of the Hilbert space into disconnected sectors. Here, we characterize such systems by introducing the notion of `statistically localized integrals of…
