Motionless domains walls representing heteroclinic temporal or spatial orbits typically exist only for very specific parameters. This report introduces a novel mechanism for stabilizing temporal domain walls away from the Maxwell point…

We analyze three different high-order nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation (HONLSE) models that have been used in the literature to describe the evolution of slowly modulated gravity waves on the surface of ideal finite-depth fluid. We…

We examine conditions for finite-time collapse of the solutions of the higher-order nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation incorporating third-order dispersion, self-steepening, linear and nonlinear gain and loss, and Raman scattering; this…

We study pattern formation in the bounded confidence model of opinion dynamics. In this random process, opinion is quantified by a single variable. Two agents may interact and reach a fair compromise, but only if their difference of opinion…

It is shown that sufficiently large periodic modulations in the coefficients of a nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation can drastically impact the spatial shape of the Peregrine soliton solutions: they can develop multiple compression points…

We demonstrate a robust, stable, mobile, two-dimensional (2D) spatial and three-dimensional (3D) spatiotemporal optical soliton in the core of an optical vortex, while all nonlinearities are of the cubic (Kerr) type. The 3D soliton can…

We present a method for analyzing the phase noise of oscillators based on feedback driven high quality factor resonators. Our approach is to derive the phase drift of the oscillator by projecting the stochastic oscillator dynamics onto a…

In this paper intermodal modulational instability (IM-MI) is analyzed in a multimode fiber where several spatial and polarization modes propagate. The coupled nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations describing the modal evolution in the fiber…

We consider the problem of ignition of propagating waves in one-dimensional bistable or excitable systems by an instantaneous spatially extended stimulus. Earlier we proposed a method (Idris and Biktashev, PRL, vol 101, 2008, 244101) for…

In the present work, we combine the notion of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry with that of super-symmetry (SUSY) for a prototypical case example with a complex potential that is related by SUSY to the so-called P{\"o}schl-Teller potential which is…

A new class of pattern forming systems is identified and investigated: anisotropic systems that are spatially inhomogeneous along the direction perpendicular to the preferred one. By studying the generic amplitude equation of this new class…

We demonstrate the synthesis of sparse sampling and machine learning to characterize and model complex, nonlinear dynamical systems over a range of bifurcation parameters. First, we construct modal libraries using the classical proper…

We study the impact of spatial confinement on the dynamics of three-dimensional excitation vortices with circular filaments. In a chemically active medium we observe a decreased contraction of such scroll rings and even expanding ones,…

We demonstrate analytically and numerically the existence of exact solitons in the form of double-kink and fractional-transform, supported by a symmetric transversally modulated defocusing nonlinearity acting as a psuedopotential combined…

This article explores the excitation of different vibrational states in a spatially extended dynamical system through theory and experiment. As a prototypical example, we consider a one-dimensional packing of spherical particles (a…

In a recent paper Zhang and Li have doubted our claim that whenever a nonlinear equation has solutions in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions $\cn(x,m)$ and $\dn(x,m)$, then the same nonlinear equation will necessarily also have…

It is well known that a moving intrinsic localized mode (ILM) in a nonlinear physical lattice looses energy because of the resonance between it and the underlying small amplitude plane wave spectrum. By exploring the Fourier transform (FT)…

In this paper we use a traveling wave reduction or a so-called spatial approximation to comprehensively investigate the periodic solutions of the complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation. The primary tools used here are Hopf…

Singularity Theory is used to comprehensively investigate the bifurcations of the steady-states of the traveling wave ODEs of the cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE). These correspond to plane waves of the PDE. In addition to the…

A normal form is derived for Hamiltonian-Hopf bifurcations of solitary waves in generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. This normal form is a simple second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation that is asymptotically…
