Nonlinear Schrödinger equation with spatiotemporal perturbations.

چکیده
We investigate the dynamics of solitons of the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) with the following perturbations: nonparametric spatiotemporal driving of the form f(x,t)=a exp[iK(t)x], damping, and a linear term which serves to stabilize the driven soliton. Using the time evolution of norm, momentum and energy, or, alternatively, a Lagrangian approach, we develop a collective-coordinate-theory which yields a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for our four collective coordinates. These ODEs are solved analytically and numerically for the case of a constant, spatially periodic force f(x). The soliton position exhibits oscillations around a mean trajectory with constant velocity. This means that the soliton performs, on the average, a unidirectional motion although the spatial average of the force vanishes. The amplitude of the oscillations is much smaller than the period of f(x). In order to find out for which regions the above solutions are stable, we calculate the time evolution of the soliton momentum P(t) and the soliton velocity V(t): This is a parameter representation of a curve P(V) which is visited by the soliton while time evolves. Our conjecture is that the soliton becomes unstable, if this curve has a branch with negative slope. This conjecture is fully confirmed by our simulations for the perturbed NLSE. Moreover, this curve also yields a good estimate for the soliton lifetime: the soliton lives longer, the shorter the branch with negative slope is.

Analytical Soliton Solutions Modeling of Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with the Dual Power Law Nonlinearity
Introduction In this study, we use a newly proposed method based on the software structure of the maple, called the Khaters method, and will be introducing exponential, hyperbolic, and trigonometric solutions for one of the Schrödinger equations, called the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the dual power law nonlinearity. Given the widespread use of the Schrödinger equation in physics and e...

We prove the persistence of finite dimensional invariant tori associated with the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation under small Hamiltonian perturbations. The invariant tori are not necessarily small.

– We generalize the concept of geometrical resonance to perturbed sine-Gordon, Nonlinear Schrödinger and Complex Ginzburg-Landau equations. Using this theory we can control different dynamical patterns. For instance, we can stabilize breathers and oscillatory patterns of large amplitudes successfully avoiding chaos. On the other hand, this method can be used to suppress spatiotemporal chaos and...
متن کاملQuasi-linear Dynamics in Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with Periodic Boundary Conditions
It is shown that a large subset of initial data with finite energy (L norm) evolves nearly linearly in nonlinear Schrödinger equation with periodic boundary conditions. These new solutions are not perturbations of the known ones such as solitons, semiclassical or weakly linear solutions.
متن کاملA second look at the Gaussian semiclassical soliton ensemble for the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation
We study the Gaussian semiclassical soliton ensemble, a collection of multisoliton solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The ensemble is generated by adding a particular asymptotically vanishing sequence of perturbations to Gaussian initial data. Recent results [Lee, Lyng, & Vankova (2012)] suggest that, remarkably, these perturbations—interlaced as they are with the integra...
