Slow-light solitons: Influence of relaxation

2008

We have applied the transformation of the slow-light equations to the Liouville theory that we developed in our previous work, to study the influence of relaxation on the soliton dynamics. We solved the problem of the soliton dynamics in the presence of relaxation and found that the spontaneous emission from the upper atomic level is strongly suppressed. Our solution proves that the spatial shape of the soliton is well preserved even if the relaxation time is much shorter than the soliton time length. This fact is of great importance for applications of the slow-light soliton concept in optical information processing. We also demonstrate that relaxation plays a role of resistance to the sol…

Simple absorbing layer conditions for shallow wave simulations with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

2013

Abstract We study and implement a simple method, based on the Perfectly Matched Layer approach, to treat non reflecting boundary conditions with the Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics numerical algorithm. The method is based on the concept of physical damping operating on a fictitious layer added to the computational domain. The method works for both 1D and 2D cases, but here we illustrate it in the case of 1D and 2D time dependent shallow waves propagating in a finite domain.

Bright and dark optical solitons in fiber media with higher-order effects

2002

We consider N-coupled higher-order nonlinear Schrodinger (N-CHNLS) equations which govern the simultaneous propagation of N optical fields in fiber media with higher-order effects. Bright and dark soliton solutions are derived using Hirota bilinear method for the general cross-coupling ratio between the parameters of self-phase modulation and cross-phase modulation effects. By means of coupled amplitude-phase formulation also, similar kind of dark soliton solutions are obtained. It is found that the parametric conditions for the simultaneous propagation of N dark solitons from both the methods are the same.

Optimized Hermite-Gaussian ansatz functions for dispersion-managed solitons

2001

Abstract By theoretical analysis, we show that the usual procedure of simply projecting the dispersion-managed (DM) soliton profile onto the basis of an arbitrary number of Hermite-gaussian (HG) polynomials leads to relatively accurate ansatz functions, but does not correspond to the best representation of DM solitons. Based on the minimization of the soliton dressing, we present a simple procedure, which provides highly accurate representation of DM solitons on the basis of a few HG polynomials only.

Stationary problems for equation of the KdV type and dynamical r-matrices

1995

We study a quite general family of dynamical $r$-matrices for an auxiliary loop algebra ${\cal L}({su(2)})$ related to restricted flows for equations of the KdV type. This underlying $r$-matrix structure allows to reconstruct Lax representations and to find variables of separation for a wide set of the integrable natural Hamiltonian systems. As an example, we discuss the Henon-Heiles system and a quartic system of two degrees of freedom in detail.

Modular Schrödinger equation and dynamical duality.

2008

We discuss quite surprising properties of the one-parameter family of modular (Auberson and Sabatier (1994)) nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations. We develop a unified theoretical framework for this family. Special attention is paid to the emergent \it dual \rm time evolution scenarios which, albeit running in the \it real time \rm parameter of the pertinent nonlinear equation, in each considered case, may be mapped among each other by means of an "imaginary time" transformation (more seriously, an analytic continuation in time procedure).

Superfield commutators for D = 4 chiral multiplets and their apppications

1987

The superfield commutators and their corresponding equal-time limits are derived in a covariant way for the D=4 free massive chiral multiplet. For interesting chiral multiplets, the general KAllen-Lehmann representation is also introduced. As applications of the free superfield commutators, the general solution of the Cauchy problem for chiral superfields is given, and an analysis of the closure of the bilinear products of superfields which desrcibe the extension of the internal currents for free supersymmetric chiral matter is performed.

The Poisson Bracket Structure of the SL(2, R)/U(1) Gauged WZNW Model with Periodic Boundary Conditions

2000

The gauged SL(2, R)/U(1) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model is classically an integrable conformal field theory. A second-order differential equation of the Gelfand-Dikii type defines the Poisson bracket structure of the theory. For periodic boundary conditions zero modes imply non-local Poisson brackets which, nevertheless, can be represented by canonical free fields.

Soliton collisions with shape change by intensity redistribution in mixed coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations

2006

International audience; A different kind of shape changing (intensity redistribution) collision with potential application to signal amplification is identified in the integrable N-coupled nonlinear Schrodinger (CNLS) equations with mixed signs of focusing- and defocusing-type nonlinearity coefficients. The corresponding soliton solutions for the N=2 case are obtained by using Hirota's bilinearization method. The distinguishing feature of the mixed sign CNLS equations is that the soliton solutions can both be singular and regular. Although the general soliton solution admits singularities we present parametric conditions for which nonsingular soliton propagation can occur. The multisoliton …

Numerical study of a multiscale expansion of the Korteweg de Vries equation and Painlev\'e-II equation

2007

The Cauchy problem for the Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation with small dispersion of order $\e^2$, $\e\ll 1$, is characterized by the appearance of a zone of rapid modulated oscillations. These oscillations are approximately described by the elliptic solution of KdV where the amplitude, wave-number and frequency are not constant but evolve according to the Whitham equations. Whereas the difference between the KdV and the asymptotic solution decreases as $\epsilon$ in the interior of the Whitham oscillatory zone, it is known to be only of order $\epsilon^{1/3}$ near the leading edge of this zone. To obtain a more accurate description near the leading edge of the oscillatory zone we present a…
