Those ubiquitous cut polyhedra
I first met Paul Erdös on August 3, 1975 in the Stanford apartment of my Ph.D. supervisor, Vasek Chvátal. Erdös asked me what he asked everyone: “What are you working on?” I was working on two topics involving finite metrics, which I knew was one of Erdös’ favourite subjects. I started by defining what I called the Hamming cone, and is now known as the cut cone, CUTn. This is the conic hull of ...
متن کاملLattice solitons in quasicondensates.
We analyze finite temperature effects in the generation of bright solitons in condensates in optical lattices. We show that even in the presence of strong phase fluctuations solitonic structures with a well defined phase profile can be created. We propose a novel family of variational functions which describe well the properties of these solitons and account for the nonlinear effects in the ban...
متن کاملSurface plasmonic lattice solitons.
We reveal the existence of the surface plasmonic lattice solitons (surface PLSs) at the boundary of a semi-infinite metallic-dielectric periodic nanostructure. We find that the truncation of the periodic structure imposes a threshold power for the existence of surface PLSs, and significantly enhances the modal localization. The propagation and excitation of surface PLSs as well as their potenti...
متن کاملSurface lattice kink solitons.
We predict theoretically that surface of an optical lattice imprinted in defocusing nonlinear media can support shock, or kink waves. Such new surface waves contain a modulationally stable pedestal and are strongly localized at the edge of the optical lattice due to Bragg-type reflection. The kink steepness and localization degree can be controlled by the lattice depth. We found two types of ki...
متن کاملMultiband vector lattice solitons.
We predict multiband vector solitons in nonlinear periodic systems, using photonic lattices as a prime example. The solitons consist of two optical fields arising from different bands of the transmission spectrum, which involve both bound state and radiation mode components.
