We discuss the (in)stability of solitary waves for a quasi-linear Schr{\"o}dinger equation. The equation contains a quasi-linear term, responsible for a saturation effect, as well as a power nonlinearity. For different exponents of the…

We study a spherical, self-gravitating fluid model, which finds applications in cosmic structure formation. We argue that since the system features nonlinearity and gravity-induced dispersion, the emergence of solitons becomes possible. We…

Soliton in the hostile turbulent wave dark matter ($\Psi$DM) halo of a galaxy agitates with various kinds of excitation, and the soliton even breathes heavily under great stress. A theory of collective excitation for a $\Psi$DM soliton is…

In this paper we study the behavior of solutions of a nonlinear Schroedinger equation in presence of an external potential, which is allowed to be singular at one point. We show that the solution behaves like a solitary wave for long time…

The generation of rogue waves is investigated via a nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation. In this system, modulation instability is suppressed and is usually expected that rogue wave formation would also be limited. On the…
