Dark spatial solitary waves in a cubic-quintic-septimal nonlinear medium
2017
We consider the evolution of light beams in nonlinear media exhibiting nonlinearities up to the seventh order wherein the beam propagation is governed by the cubic-quintic-septimal nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. An exact analytic solution that describes dark solitary wave propagation is obtained, based on a special ansatz. Unlike the well-known $\text{tanh}$-profile dark soliton in Kerr media, the present one has a functional form given in terms of ``${\text{sech}}^{2/3}$''. The requirements concerning the optical material parameters for the existence of this localized structure are discussed. This propagating solitary wave exists due to a balance among diffraction, cubic, quintic, and s…
Lines on the Dwork pencil of quintic threefolds
2012
We present an explicit parametrization of the families of lines of the Dwork pencil of quintic threefolds. This gives rise to isomorphic curves which parametrize the lines. These curves are 125:1 covers of certain genus six curves. These genus six curves are first presented as curves in P^1*P^1 that have three nodes. It is natural to blow up P^1*P^1 in the three points corresponding to the nodes in order to produce smooth curves. The result of blowing up P^1*P^1 in three points is the quintic del Pezzo surface dP_5, whose automorphism group is the permutation group S_5, which is also a symmetry of the pair of genus six curves. The subgroup A_5, of even permutations, is an automorphism of ea…
Mirror quintics, discrete symmetries and Shioda maps
2008
In a recent paper, Doran, Greene and Judes considered one parameter families of quintic threefolds with finite symmetry groups. A surprising result was that each of these six families has the same Picard Fuchs equation associated to the holomorphic 3-form. In this paper we give an easy argument, involving the family of Mirror Quintics, which implies this result. Using a construction due to Shioda, we also relate certain quotients of these one parameter families to the family of Mirror Quintics. Our constructions generalize to degree n Calabi Yau varieties in (n-1)-dimensional projective space.
Dipole soliton solution for the homogeneous high-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with cubic–quintic–septic non-Kerr terms
2015
Abstract We consider a high-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation with third- and fourth-order dispersions, cubic–quintic–septic nonlinearities, self-steepening, and instantaneous Raman response. This equation models describes ultra-short optical pulse propagation in highly-nonlinear media. The ansatz solution of Choudhuri and Porsezian (in Ref. [16]) is adapted to investigate solutions composed of the product of bright and dark solitary waves. Parametric conditions for the existence of the derived soliton solutions are given and their stabilities are numerically discussed. These exact solutions provide insight into balance mechanisms between several high-order nonlinearities of different na…
Multipole solitary wave solutions of the higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with quintic non-Kerr terms
2013
We consider a high-order nonlinear Schrodinger (HNLS) equation with third- and fourth-order dispersions, quintic non-Kerr terms, self steepening, and self-frequency-shift effects. The model applies to the description of ultrashort optical pulse propagation in highly nonlinear media. We propose a complex envelope function ansatz composed of single bright, single dark and the product of bright and dark solitary waves that allows us to obtain analytically different shapes of solitary wave solutions. Parametric conditions for the existence and uniqueness of such solitary waves are presented. The solutions comprise fundamental solitons, kink and anti-kink solitons, W-shaped, dipole, tripole, and…

A subtle error in conventional stochastic linearization techniques
1998
Abstract The stochastic linearization technique as applied to the SDOF system is re-examined. Two standard procedures associated with the stochastic linearization, widely adopted in the literature, are shown to be erroneous. Two new procedures to correct the errors made in previous works are introduced. To gain more insight, the procedures are applied to the quintic oscillator. Comparative numerical analysis is performed.
Turing instability and traveling fronts for a nonlinear reaction–diffusion system with cross-diffusion
2012
In this work we investigate the phenomena of pattern formation and wave propagation for a reaction–diffusion system with nonlinear diffusion. We show how cross-diffusion destabilizes uniform equilibrium and is responsible for the initiation of spatial patterns. Near marginal stability, through a weakly nonlinear analysis, we are able to predict the shape and the amplitude of the pattern. For the amplitude, in the supercritical and in the subcritical case, we derive the cubic and the quintic Stuart–Landau equation respectively. When the size of the spatial domain is large, and the initial perturbation is localized, the pattern is formed sequentially and invades the whole domain as a travelin…
Surfaces of minimal degree of tame representation type and mutations of Cohen–Macaulay modules
2017
We provide two examples of smooth projective surfaces of tame CM type, by showing that any parameter space of isomorphism classes of indecomposable ACM bundles with fixed rank and determinant on a rational quartic scroll in projective 5-space is either a single point or a projective line. For surfaces of minimal degree and wild CM type, we classify rigid Ulrich bundles as Fibonacci extensions. For the rational normal scrolls S(2,3) and S(3,3), a complete classification of rigid ACM bundles is given in terms of the action of the braid group in three strands.
