This paper obtains bright, dark and singular 1-soliton solution to nonlinear Schrodinger's equation that is studied with anti-cubic nonlinearity for optical fibers. The traveling wave hypothesis leads to implicit solution in terms of elliptic functions. The method of undetermined coefficients yields explicit single soliton solutions. Finally, a comprehensive discussion on conservation laws closes the chapter. (C) 2016 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

Chirped optical soliton propagation in birefringent fibers modeled by coupled Fokas-Lenells system

Houria Triki, Qin Zhou, Wenjun Liu, Anjan Biswas, Luminita Moraru, Yakup Yildirim, Hashim M. Alshehri, Milivoj R. Belic

Summary: This article addresses the propagation of ultrashort light pulses in a birefringent optical fiber with various dispersion effects. The dynamics of the pulses are described by the coupled Fokas-Lenells equations, which provide an accurate description of pulse evolution in the femtosecond range. The study reports the first analytical demonstration of chirped solitons in a birefringent fiber medium and discusses their formation and characteristics.

Summary: In this paper, the multi-elliptic rogue wave clusters of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation are analyzed to understand the origin and appearance of optical rogue waves in this system. The Darboux transformation scheme is used to obtain these structures on uniform backgrounds. The main outcomes of this research are the new multi-rogue wave solutions of the NLSE and its extended family.

On different aspects of the optical rogue waves nature

Milivoj R. Belic, Stanko N. Nikolic, Omar A. Ashour, Najdan B. Aleksic

Summary: This article discusses the strange nature, dynamic generation, ingrained instability, and potential applications of rogue waves in oceans and optics. It presents solutions to the standard cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation, which models many propagation phenomena in nonlinear optics. The article proposes a method for suppressing the modulation instability of rogue waves and demonstrates how rogue waves can be used to produce stable recurrent images in nanolithography. It also highlights instances when rogue waves appear as numerical artifacts and how statistical analysis based on different numerical procedures can lead to misleading conclusions about the nature of rogue waves.

Families of gap solitons and their complexes in media with saturable nonlinearity and fractional diffraction

Liangwei Zeng, Milivoj R. Belic, Dumitru Mihalache, Jincheng Shi, Jiawei Li, Siqi Li, Xiaowei Lu, Yi Cai, Jingzhen Li

Summary: We have demonstrated the existence of various types of gap localized modes, including one- and two-dimensional solitons and soliton clusters, as well as vortex modes, in optical media with saturable Kerr nonlinearity and fractional diffraction. We found that soliton clusters with different peak numbers can be stable, and the localized modes at the center of the first and second band gaps are stable. The stability of these modes is confirmed through linear stability analysis and numerical simulations.

Higher-order breathers as quasi-rogue waves on a periodic background

Omar A. Ashour, Siu A. Chin, Stanko N. Nikolic, Milivoj R. Belic

Summary: We investigated higher-order breathers of the cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation on a periodic elliptic background. We found that, beyond first order, any arbitrarily constructed breather on a disordered background generates a single-peaked solitary wave. However, on the periodic backgrounds, the so-called quasi-rogue waves, which are quasiperiodic breathers with distorted side peaks, are more common. We constructed such higher-order breathers using constituent first-order breathers with commensurate periods and also found truly periodic breathers, but they are rare and require finely tuned parameters.

Multiple-peak and multiple-ring solitons in the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with inhomogeneous self-defocusing nonlinearity

Liangwei Zeng, Xing Zhu, Milivoj R. Belic, Dumitru Mihalache, Jincheng Shi, Junbo Chen

Summary: In this study, it is proven that inhomogeneous defocusing cubic nonlinear media described by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation can support one-dimensional multiple-peak and two-dimensional multiple-ring solitons with equal intensity peaks. The number of equal peaks depends on the parameters describing nonlinearity. Furthermore, vortical modes in these media exhibit alternating stability and instability domains, unlike their non-vortical counterparts which are completely stable.

Soliton transformation between different potential wells

Qing Wang, Dumitru Mihalache, Milivoj R. Belic, Liangwei Zeng, J. Lin

Summary: This paper introduces a novel method for realizing soliton transformation between different potential wells by gradually manipulating their depths in the propagation direction. The method requires a smooth gradient of the manipulated depth and stable solitons in different potential wells. The comparison with iterative solitons proves the efficiency and reliability of the method, and it also shows that stable solitons can be obtained in complex potential wells where iterative numerical methods fail. The controllable soliton transformation provides opportunities for all-optical switching, optical information processing, and other applications.

Quiescent Optical Solitons with Cubic-Quartic and Generalized Cubic-Quartic Nonlinearity

Ahmed H. Arnous, Anjan Biswas, Yakup Yildirim, Luminita Moraru, Simona Moldovanu, Seithuti P. Moshokoa

Summary: The study focuses on the application of the enhanced Kudryashov approach in dealing with the model of self-phase modulation, pointing out the limitations when the nonlinearity has a generalized form. In contrast to the common approach in the past, the current analysis employs a direct method rather than intermediate phase-portrait analysis.

Triangular bright solitons in nonlinear optics and Bose-Einstein condensates

Liangwei Zeng, Milivoj R. Belic, Dumitru Mihalache, Dan Xiang, Qing Wang, Jianrong Yang, Xing Zhu

Summary: We demonstrate novel triangular bright solitons supported by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with inhomogeneous Kerr-like nonlinearity and external harmonic potential, which can be realized in nonlinear optics and Bose-Einstein condensates. The profiles of these solitons differ from common Gaussian or sech envelope beams, with tops and bottoms resembling triangle and inverted triangle functions. Self-defocusing nonlinearity leads to triangle-up solitons, while self-focusing nonlinearity supports triangle-down solitons. The stability of these lowest-order fundamental triangular solitons is confirmed by linear stability analysis and direct numerical simulations.

Two-dimensional toroidal breather solutions of the self-focusing nonlinear Schr?dinger equation

Zhengping Yang, Wei-Ping Zhong, Milivoj R. Belic

Summary: We introduce ring-like toroidal breather solutions of the (2 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation with Kerr nonlinearity. By approximating the (2 + 1)-dimensional NLS equation in cylindrical coordinates with the standard (1 + 1)-dimensional NLS equation, we obtain the first-order toroidal breather solutions and investigate their dynamic characteristics. Notably, we discover and present the toroidal Peregrine soliton for the first time. This research can be extended to studying other high-dimensional nonlinear equations and provides a practical method for analyzing other high-dimensional nonlinear localized wave structures.

Chengming Lyu, Milivoj R. Belic, Yongdong Li, Yiqi Zhang

Summary: In this paper, we investigate the generation and propagation of diffraction-free Bessel beams by combined axicons. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that these beams can propagate up to 9.63 km in free space. By utilizing the angular spectrum reconstruction theory, the propagation distance can be extended up to 15 km. The self-healing property and outstanding performance of Bessel beams in weak to moderate turbulence atmosphere are also demonstrated.

VALLEY HALL EDGE SOLITONS IN THE KAGOME PHOTONIC LATTICE

Qian Tang, Boquan Ren, Milivoj R. Belic, Yiqi Zhang, Yongdong Li

Summary: After more than 10 years of development, nonlinear topological photonics is emerging as a new branch of physics. One of the most interesting subjects in this field is the topological edge solitons, which are solitary structures that can move along the edges of photonic crystals with constant speed and maintain their profiles unchanged during long-distance propagation. This paper presents bright and dark valley Hall edge solitons in the kagome photonic lattice, which can circumvent sharp corners and have potential applications in the development of novel photonic chips.
