چکیده
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 permits accurate tracing of complex perturbation eigenvalues.

Linear and Nonlinear Dust Acoustic Waves in Quantum Dusty Electron-Positron-Ion Plasma
The behavior of linear and nonlinear dust acoustic waves (DAWs) in an unmagnetized plasma including inertialess electrons and positrons, ions, and mobile positive/negative dust grains are studied. Reductive perturbation method is employed for small and finite amplitude DAWs. To investigate the solitary waves, the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation is derived and the solution is presented. B...
متن کاملStability analysis for pitchfork bifurcations of solitary waves in generalized nonlinear Schrdinger equations
Linear stability of both sign-definite (positive) and sign-indefinite solitary waves near pitchfork bifurcations is analyzed for the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equations with arbitrary forms of nonlinearity and external potentials in arbitrary spatial dimensions. Bifurcations of linear-stability eigenvalues associated with pitchfork bifurcations are analytically calculated. Based on thes...
متن کاملSolitary Waves and Their Linear Stability in Nonlinear Lattices
Solitary waves in a general nonlinear lattice are discussed, employing as a model the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a spatially periodic nonlinear coefficient. An asymptotic theory is developed for long solitary waves, that span a large number of lattice periods. In this limit, the allowed positions of solitary waves relative to the lattice, as well as their linear stability properties, h...
متن کاملDynamics of Three-Dimensional Gravity-Capillary Solitary Waves in Deep Water
A model equation for gravity-capillary waves in deep water is proposed. This model is a quadratic approximation of the deep water potential flow equations and has wavepacket-type solitary wave solutions. The model equation supports line solitary waves which are spatially localized in the direction of propagation and constant in the transverse direction, and lump solitary waves which are spatial...

We demonstrate that, in contrast with what was previously believed, multihump solitary waves can be stable. By means of linear stability analysis and numerical simulations, we investigate the stability of twoand three-hump solitary waves governed by incoherent beam interaction in a saturable medium, providing a theoretical background for the stability of the experimental results reported by Mit...
