We study the generalization of the dispersionless Kadomtsev - Petviashvili (dKP) equation in n+1 dimensions and with nonlinearity of degree m+1, a model equation describing the propagation of weakly nonlinear, quasi one dimensional waves in…

We report a detailed and systematic numerical study of wave propagation through a coherently amplifying random one-dimensional medium. The coherent amplification is modeled by introducing a uniform imaginary part in the site energies of the…

Whitham modulation theory for certain two-dimensional evolution equations of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) type is presented. Three specific examples are considered in detail: the KP equation, the two-dimensional Benjamin-Ono (2DBO) equation…

The propagation of water waves of finite depth and flat bottom is studied in the case when the depth is not small in comparison to the wavelength. This propagation regime is complementary to the long-wave regime described by the famous KdV…

A general theory for the existence of solitary wave and double layer at M= Mc has been discussed, where Mc is the lower bound of the Mach number M, i.e., solitary wave and/or double layer solutions of the well-known energy integral start to…

Coherent structures, such as solitary waves, appear in many physical problems, including fluid mechanics, optics, quantum physics, and plasma physics. A less studied setting is found in geophysics, where highly viscous fluids couple to…

This thesis deals with some theoretical aspects of deterministic freak wave generation in the wave basin of a hydrodynamic laboratory. We adopt the spatial nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation as a mathematical model to describe the deformation…

We analyze asymptotically a differential-difference equation, that arises in a Markov-modulated fluid model. Here there are N identical sources that turn "on" and "off", and when "on" they generate fluid at unit rate into a buffer, which…

A generalisation of the Lattice Potential Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (LPKP) equation is presented, using the method of Direct Linearisation based on an elliptic Cauchy kernel. This yields a (3+1)-dimensional lattice system with one of the…

In the context of fluid flows, the coupled Ostrovsky equations arise when two distinct linear long wave modes have nearly coincident phase speeds in the presence of background rotation. In this paper, nonlinear waves in a stratified fluid…

The formation of singularities in solutions to the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (dKP) equation is studied numerically for different classes of initial data. The asymptotic behavior of the Fourier coefficients is used to…

We study the flow of water waves over bathymetry that varies periodically along one direction. We derive a linearized, homogenized model and show that the periodic bathymetry induces an effective dispersion, distinct from the dispersion…

We analyze asymptotically a differential-difference equation, that arises in a Markov-modulated fluid model. We use singular perturbation methods to analyze the problem with appropriate scalings of the two state variables. In particular,…

We revisit the scheme of single-photon weak-coupling optomechanics using post-selection, proposed by Pepper, Ghobadi, Jeffrey, Simon and Bouwmeester [Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 023601 (2012)], by analyzing the exact solution of the dynamical…

The famous Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion model combines linear diffusion with the typical KPP reaction term, and appears in a number of relevant applications in biology and chemistry. It is remarkable as a mathematical model since it…

The purpose of this work is to analyze the flow due to a potential point vortex pair in the vicinity of a symmetry line (or "wall"), in order to understand why the presence of the wall, even far from the vortices, accelerates fluid mixing…

Asymptotic couplings by reflection are constructed for a class of non-linear monotone SPDES (stochastic partial differential equations). As applications, the gradient/H\"older estimates as well as the exponential convergence are derived for…

The modified Poisson-Boltzmann theory of the restricted primitive model double layer is revisited and recast in a fresh, slightly broader perspective. Derivation of relevant equations follow the techniques utilized in the earlier MPB4 and…

We exploit millimeter wave technology to measure the reflection and transmission response of random dielectric media. Our samples are easily constructed from random stacks of identical, sub-wavelength quartz and Teflon wafers. The…

Dynamics of a matter wave soliton bouncing on the reflecting surface (atomic mirror) under the effect of gravity has been studied by analytical and numerical means. The analytical description is based on the variational approach. Resonant…
