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…
Inductance Calculations for Circular Coils of Rectangular Cross Section and Parallel Axes Using Bessel and Struve Functions
2010
A simple method for calculating the mutual and self inductances of circular coils of rectangular cross section and parallel axes is presented. The method applies to non-coaxial as well as coaxial coils, and self inductance can be calculated by considering two identical coils which coincide in space. It is assumed that current density is homogeneous in the coil windings. The inductances are given in terms of one-dimensional integrals involving Bessel and Struve functions, and an exact solution is given for one of these integrals. The remaining terms can be evaluated numerically to great accuracy using computer packages such as Mathematica. The method is compared with other exact methods for …
Time characteristics of Lévy flights in a steep potential well
2013
Using the method previously developed for ordinary Brownian diffusion, we derive a new formula to calculate the correlation time of stationary Lévy flights in a steep potential well. For the symmetric quartic potential, we obtain the exact expression of the correlation time of steady-state Lévy flights with index α = 1. The correlation time of stationary Lévy flights decreases with an increasing noise intensity and steepness of potential well.
Trivial S-Matrices, Wigner-Von Neumann Resonances and Positon Solutions of the Integrable Nonlinear Evolution Equations
1996
It is well known that the scattering matrix is different from the unit matrix in the case of 1-dimensional Schrodinger operator with smooth rapidly decreasing nonzero potential. This no more true in the case of the slowly decreasing and oscillating potentials for which the absence of scattering is accompanied by the occurrence of the Wigner-von Neumann resonances embedded in the positive absolutely continuous spectrum. Taken as initial conditions in the KdV like integrable partial differential equations these potentials generate interesting family of explicit solutions. Below we will call them positon or multipositon solutions. The interaction of an arbitrary finite number of positons and s…
Location of transition states and stable intermediates by MINIMAX/MINIMI optimization of synchronous transit pathways
1983
The MINIMAX/MINIMI concept for the location of transition states and/or stable intermediates of chemical reactions is introduced, based on the synchronous transit method. According to this strategy, minimization of quadratic synchronous transit path maxima or minima is achieved by constrained exhaustive optimization of internal coordinates. The method and its efficiency are demonstrated for two-dimensional model surfaces as well as for thermally allowed electrocyclic interconversions of cyclopropyl-/allyl-cation and cyclobutene-/butadiene (gauche) within the framework of MNDO-SCF calculations. Thus, in both cases a direct comparison with the exact solution determined by minimization of the …
Two-dimensional spectroscopy for the study of ion Coulomb crystals
2015
Ion Coulomb crystals are currently establishing themselves as a highly controllable test-bed for mesoscopic systems of statistical mechanics. The detailed experimental interrogation of the dynamics of these crystals however remains an experimental challenge. In this work, we show how to extend the concepts of multi-dimensional nonlinear spectroscopy to the study of the dynamics of ion Coulomb crystals. The scheme we present can be realized with state-of-the-art technology and gives direct access to the dynamics, revealing nonlinear couplings even in the presence of thermal excitations. We illustrate the advantages of our proposal showing how two-dimensional spectroscopy can be used to detec…
Quantized separations of phase-locked soliton pairs in fiber lasers
2003
Quantized separations of phase-locked soliton pairs in fiber lasers were presented. The relation between the Kelly sidebands and the quantized separations between solitons was confirmed. Simulation results showed that the solitons can see each other at relatively larger distances than they would in the absence of radiation.
Compact-envelope bright solitary wave in a DNA double strand
2012
International audience; We study the nonlinear dynamics of a homogeneous DNA chain which is based on site-dependent finite stacking and pairing enthalpies. We introduce an extended nonlinear Schroedinger equation describing the dynamics of modulated waves in DNA model. We obtain envelope bright solitary waves with compact support as a solution. Analytical criteria of existence and stability of this solution are derived. The stability of bright compactons is confirmed by numerical simulations of the exact equations of the lattice. The impact of the fi nite stacking energy is investigated and we show that some of these compact bright solitary waves are very robust, while others decompose quic…
Propagation, Stability and Interactions of Novel Three-Wave Parametric Solitons
2006
International audience; We found a new class of analytic soliton solutions that describe the parametric wave mixing of optical pulses in quadratic nonlinear crystals. We analyze the stability properties, interactions and collisions of these solitons.
q-deformed solitons and quantum solitons of the Maxwell-Bloch lattice
2000
We report for the first time exact solutions of a completely integrable nonlinear lattice system for which the dynamical variables satisfy a q-deformed Lie algebra - the Lie-Poisson algebra su_q(2). The system considered is a q-deformed lattice for which in continuum limit the equations of motion become the envelope Maxwell-Bloch (or SIT) equations describing the resonant interaction of light with a nonlinear dielectric. Thus the N-soliton solutions we here report are the natural q-deformations, necessary for a lattice, of the well-known multi-soliton and breather solutions of self-induced transparency (SIT). The method we use to find these solutions is a generalization of the Darboux-Backl…
