A Robust Numerical Method to Study Oscillatory Instability of Gap Solitary Waves

The spectral problem associated with the linearization about solitary waves of spinor systems or optical coupled mode equations supporting gap solitons is formulated in terms of the Evans function, a complex analytic function whose zeros correspond to eigenvalues. These problems may exhibit oscillatory instabilities where eigenvalues detach from the edges of the continuous spectrum, so called e...

Efficient numerical method for linear stability analysis of solitary waves

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t In this paper we use a numerical relaxation algorithm to improve and generalize the obtainment of the perturbation eigenstates of nonlinear systems. As a model problem we consider the linear stability analysis of the vortex eigenstates of the cubic–quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. It is shown by numerical calculations that the relaxation algorithm pe...

Instability of nonlinear dispersive solitary waves

We consider linear instability of solitary waves of several classes of dispersive long wave models. They include generalizations of KDV, BBM, regularized Boussinesq equations, with general dispersive operators and nonlinear terms. We obtain criteria for the existence of exponentially growing solutions to the linearized problem. The novelty is that we dealt with models with nonlocal dispersive t...

Instability of large solitary water waves

We consider the linearized instability of 2D irrotational solitary water waves. The maxima of energy and the travel speed of solitary waves are not obtained at the highest wave, which has the 120 degree angle at the crest. Under the assumption of non-existence of secondary bifurcation which is con…rmed numerically, we prove linear instability of solitary waves which are higher than the wave of ...

Stability and instability of solitary waves of the fifth-order KdV equation: a numerical framework

The spectral problem associated with the linearization about solitary waves of the generalized fifth-order KdV equation is formulated in terms of the Evans function, a complex analytic function whose zeros correspond to eigenvalues. A numerical framework, based on a fast robust shooting algorithm on exterior algebra spaces is introduced. The complete algorithm has several new features, includin...
