Temporal solitary waves near linear resonances

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Solitary waves can exist near linear resonances where the dispersion is strong and nonparabolic. These solitary waves form a two-parameter family; the velocity and the wave number are these parameters. We derive analytical solutions for both bright and dark solitary waves and show that these solutions are characterized by a chirp proportional to the peak power. Moreover, these solitary waves may even exist on a continuous-wave background. Domains of existence and stability are explicitly given, and the influence of weak absorption on the solitary-wave dynamics is discussed.
