It is commonly held that a necessary condition for the existence of solitons in nonlinear-wave systems is that the soliton's frequency (spatial or temporal) must not fall into the continuous spectrum of radiation modes. However, this is not…

It was recently proved that isolated unstable "embedded lattice solitons" (ELS) may exist in discrete systems. The discovery of these ELS gives rise to relevant questions such as the following: are there continuous families of ELS?, can ELS…
We address the existence and properties of discrete embedded solitons (ESs), i.e., localized waves existing inside the phonon band in a nonlinear dynamical-lattice model. The model describes a one-dimensional array of optical waveguides…

We present hitherto unknown forms of soliton dynamics in the forbidden frequency gap of a Bragg reflector, modified by periodic layers of near-resonant two-level systems (TLS). Remarkably, even extremely low TLS densities create an allowed…
The nonlinear Schroedinger equation with a third-order dispersive term is considered. Infinite families of embedded solitons, parameterized by the propagation velocity, are found through a gauge transformation. By applying this…
Basic models which give rise to one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) solitons, such as the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equations for Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), feature the Galilean invariance, which makes it possible to generate families…
We analytically study plasma solitary waves, or solitons, in a two-dimensional (2D) electron system (ES) placed in close proximity to and between two ideal metallic gates. As a rule, solitons are described using a perturbative approach…
