We present a definition of the non-abelian generalisations of affine Toda theory related from the outset to vertex operator constructions of the corresponding Kac-Moody algebra ĝ. Reuslts concerning conjugacy classes of the Weyl group of the finite Lie algebra g to embeddings of A1 in g are used both to present the theories, and to elucidate their soliton spectrum. We confirm the conjecture of ...

We establish a long time soliton asymptotics for a nonlinear system of Maxwell equation coupled to a charged particle. The coupled system has a six dimensional manifold of soliton solutions. We show that in the large time approximation, any solution, with an initial state close to the solitary manifold, is a sum of a soliton and a dispersive wave which is a solution of the free Maxwell equation...

In each dimension N ≥ 3 and for each real number λ ≥ 1, we construct a family of complete rotationally symmetric solutions to Ricci flow on R which encounter a global singularity at a finite time T . The singularity forms arbitrarily slowly with the curvature blowing up arbitrarily fast at the rate (T − t)−(λ+1). Near the origin, blow-ups of such a solution converge uniformly to the Bryant soli...

Narrow optical dip solutions are investigated when, besides self-phase modulation and group velocity dispersion, also third-order dispersion, nonlinear dispersion, and stimulated Raman scattering are taken into account. By using the inverse scattering transform for the higher-order optical nonlinear Schrödinger (HNLS) equation under Hirota parameter conditions, the dark N-soliton solution is co...

We critically review the recent progress in understanding soliton propagation in birefringent optical fibers. By constructing the most general bright two-soliton solution of the integrable coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation (Manakov model) we point out that solitons in birefringent fibers can in general change their shape after interaction due to a change in the intensity distribution among...

A direct approach is applied to the periodic amplification of a soliton in an optical fibre link with loss. In a single soliton case, the adiabatic solution and first-order correction are given for the system. The apparent advantage of this direct approach is that it not only presents the slow evolution of soliton parameters, but also the perturbation-induced radiation, and can be easily used t...

We develop a theory of the soliton self-frequency shift compensation by the resonant radiation recently observed in photonic crystal fibers. Our approach is based on the calculation of the soliton plus radiation solution of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger (GNLS) equation and on subsequent use of the adiabatic theory leading to a system of equations governing evolution of the soliton param...

Remarkable mathematical properties of the integrable nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) can offer advanced solutions for the mitigation of nonlinear signal distortions in optical fiber links. Fundamental optical soliton, continuous, and discrete eigenvalues of the nonlinear spectrum have already been considered for the transmission of information in fiber-optic channels. Here, we propose to ...

In this paper, we obtained the 1-soliton solutions of the symmetric regularized long wave (SRLW) equation and the (3+1)-dimensional shallow water wave equations. Solitary wave ansatz method is used to carry out the integration of the equations and obtain topological soliton solutions The physical parameters in the soliton solutions are obtained as functions of the dependent coefficients. Note t...

Orbital and asymptotic stability for 1-soliton solutions to the Toda lattice equations as well as small solitary waves to the FPU lattice equations are established in the energy space. Unlike analogous Hamiltonian PDEs, the lattice equations do not conserve momentum. Furthermore, the Toda lattice equation is a bidirectional model that does not fit in with existing theory for Hamiltonian system ...
