We study the scattering of solitons in the nonlinear Schroedinger equation on local inhomogeneities which may give rise to resonant transmission and reflection. In both cases, we derive resonance conditions for the soliton's velocity. The…
Matter-wave bright solitons are predicted to reflect from a purely attractive potential well although they are macroscopic objects with classical particle-like properties. The non-classical reflection occurs at small velocities and a…
Scattering of solitons and dark solitons by potential walls is studied in the nonlinear Schroedinger equation under various conditions. We investigate the conditions under which solitons are split into two solitons at the potential wall. We…
The presence of a large applied magnetic field removes the degeneracy of the vacuum energy states for spin-up and spin-down neutrons. For polarized neutron reflectometry, this must be included in the reference potential energy of the…
We study systematically the scattering of solitons on localized impurities in the discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation with a saturable nonlinearity. We show that, apart from the generic scenario of the outcome of the scattering…
Employing a particularly suitable higher order symplectic integration algorithm, we integrate the 1-$d$ nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation numerically for solitons moving in external potentials. In particular, we study the scattering off an…
Extending previous works on the spectrum of QCD_2, we now investigate the 2D analogue of meson-baryon scattering. We use semi-classical methods, perturbing around classical soliton solutions. We start with the abelian case, corresponding to…
We theoretically investigate the scattering of bright solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate on narrow attractive potential wells. Reflection, transmission and trapping of an incident soliton are predicted to occur with remarkably abrupt…
We present four examples of integrable partial differential equations (PDEs) of mathematical physics that---when linearized around a stationary soliton---exhibit scattering without reflection at {\it all} energies. Starting from the most…
We investigate the interaction between two flat-top solitons within the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation framework. Our study results point towards a significant departure of flat-top solitons collisional characteristics from…
In this paper we perform a numerical study on the interesting phenomenon of soliton reflection of solid walls. We consider the 2D nonlinear Schrodinger equation as the underlying mathematical model and we use an implicit-explicit type…
We observe nonlinear scattering of 39 K atomic bright solitons launched in a one-dimensional (1D) speckle disorder. We directly compare it with the scattering of non-interacting particles in the same disorder. The atoms in the soliton tend…
The resonant scattering of gap solitons (GS) of the periodic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with a localized defect which is symmetric under the parity and the time-reversal (PT) symmetry, is investigated. It is shown that for suitable…
We numerically demonstrate the unidirectional flow of flat-top solitons when interacting with two reflectionless potential wells with slightly different depths. The system is described by a nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation with dual…
We present numerical and analytical results for the reflection and transmission properties of matter wave solitons impinging on localized scattering potentials in one spatial dimension. Our mean field analysis identifies regimes where the…
We consider the problem of reflectionless propagation of PT-symmetric solitons described by the nonlocal nonlinear Schroedinger equation on a line in the framework of the concept of transparent boundary conditions for evolution equations.…
As a part of the program `discrete quantum mechanics,' we present general reflectionless potentials for difference Schr\"odinger equations with pure imaginary shifts. By combining contiguous integer wave number reflectionless potentials, we…
Linear theory for phonon scattering by discrete breathers in the discrete nonlinear Schroedinger equation using the transfer matrix approach is presented. Transmission and reflection coefficients are obtained as a function of the wave…
We investigate theoretically and numerically quantum reflection of dark solitons propagating through an external reflectionless potential barrier or in the presence of a position-dependent dispersion. We confirm that quantum reflection…
In a seminal work, S.A.R. Horsley and collaborators [S.A.R. Horsley {\em et al.}, Nature Photon. {\bf 9}, 436 (2015)] have shown that, in the framework of non-Hermitian extensions of the Schr\"odinger and Helmholtz equations, a localized…
