We explore the effect of spatiotemporally varying substrate temperature profiles on the dynamics and resulting reaction rate enhancement for the catalytic oxidation of CO on Pt(110). The catalytic surface is "addressed" by a focused laser…

We show the existence of a compacton-like solutions within the relaxing hydrodynamic-type model and perform numerical study of attracting features of these solutions.

In this paper, the regulating effect of guiding filters on the energies of solitons in wave-length division multiplexing (WDM) transmission systems is rigorously studied. More precisely, it is shown that guiding filters prevent the energies…

We introduce a two-dimensional (2D) discrete nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger (DNLS) equation with self-attractive cubic nonlinearity in a rotating reference frame. The model applies to a Bose-Einstein condensate stirred by a rotating strong…

The modulational instability of two interacting waves in a nonlocal Kerr-type medium is considered analytically and numerically. For a generic choice of wave amplitudes, we give a complete description of stable/unstable regimes for zero…

We address the interactions between optical solitons in the system with longitudinally varying nonlocality degree and nonlinearity strength. We consider a physical model describing light propagation in nematic liquid crystals featuring a…

Motivated by recent work on instabilities in expanding domains in reaction-diffusion settings, we propose an analog of such mechanisms in energy-conserving wave equations. In particular, we consider a nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation in a…

Models of two-dimensional (2D) traps, with the double-well structure in the third direction, for Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) are introduced, with attractive or repulsive interactions between atoms. The models are based on systems of…

The Nikolaevskiy equation has been proposed as a model for seismic waves, electroconvection and weak turbulence; we show that it can also be used to model transverse instabilities of fronts. This equation possesses a large-scale "Goldstone"…

We generate conical second-harmonic radiation by transverse excitation of a two-dimensional annular periodically-poled nonlinear photonic structure with a fundamental Gaussian beam. We show that these conical waves are the far-field images…

Three-dimensional solitary and vortex structures in Bose-Einstein condensates are studied in the framework of Gross-Pitaevskii model including the simultaneous action of local cubic-quintic nonlinearity and nonlocal dipole-dipole…

Coupled backward and forward wave amplitudes of an electromagnetic field propagating in a periodic and nonlinear medium at Bragg resonance are governed by the nonlinear coupled mode equations (NLCME). This system of PDEs, similar in…

In response to a sound stimulus, the inner ear emits sounds called otoacoustic emissions. While the exact mechanism for the production of otoacoustic emissions is not known, active motion of individual hair cells is thought to play a role.…

A system of coupled chaotic bistable maps on a lattice with randomly distributed impurities is investigated as a model for studying the phenomenon of phase growth in nonuniform media. The statistical properties of the system are…

The manipulation of locked intrinsic localized modes/discrete breathers is studied experimentally in nonlinear electric transmission line arrays. Introducing a static lattice impurity in the form of a capacitor, resistor or inductor has…

Rolls in finite Prandtl number rotating convection with free-slip top and bottom boundary conditions are shown to be unstable with respect to small angle perturbations for any value of the rotation rate. This instability is driven by the…

The profiles of narrow lattice solitons are calculated analytically using perturbation analysis. A stability analysis shows that solitons centered at a lattice (potential) maximum are unstable, as they drift toward the nearest lattice…

In this paper, we study the competition of linear and nonlinear lattices and its effects on the stability and dynamics of bright solitary waves. We consider both lattices in a perturbative framework, whereby the technique of Hamiltonian…

We study spatio-temporal chaos in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation in parameter regions of weak amplification and viscosity. Turbulent states involving many soliton-like pulses appear in the parameter range, because the complex…

The renormalization method which is a type of perturbation method is extended to a tool to study weakly nonlinear time-delay systems. For systems with order-one delay, we show that the renormalization method leads to reduced systems without…
