Self-compression of multi-millijoule femtosecond laser pulses and dramatic increase of the peak intensity are found in pressurized helium and neon within a range of intensity in which the ionization modification of the material parameters by the pulse is negligible. The pulse propagation is studied by the (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation including basic lowest order optical proc...

We investigate the dynamics of a boson gas with three-body interactions in dimensions d = 1, 2. We prove that in the limit where the particle number N tends to infinity, the BBGKY hierarchy of k-particle marginals converges to a limiting (Gross-Pitaevskii (GP)) hierarchy for which we prove existence and uniqueness of solutions. The solutions of the GP hierarchy are shown to be determined by sol...

2014 A strongly nonlinear, spatially invariant equation for the dynamics of a cellular flame is derived, on the assumption that the curvature of the flame front is small. The equation generalizes the corresponding weakly nonlinear equation, obtained previously near the stability threshold. J.

Asymptotic reductions of the Fanno model for one-dimensional turbulent compressible flow of a perfect gas in a long tube are investigated. Conservation laws are derived using the multiplier method for a nonlinear wave equation and a nonlinear diffusion equation for the mean velocity and a nonlinear diffusion equation for the mean pressure. Two conserved quantities for the mean velocity are obta...

Nonlinear dynamics of wave packets in parity-time-symmetric optical lattices near the phase-transition point is analytically studied. A nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation is derived for the envelope of these wave packets. A variety of phenomena known to exist in this envelope equation are shown to also exist in the full equation, including wave blowup, periodic bound states, and solitary wave solu...

Multisoliton solutions are derived for a general nonlinear Schrödinger equation with derivative by using Hirota's approach. The dynamics of one-soliton solution and two-soliton interactions are also illustrated. The considered equation can reduce to nonlinear Schrödinger equation with derivative as well as the solutions.

The dynamics of a heavy particle in a gas of much lighter particles is studied via the Boltzmann-Lorentz equation with inelastic collisions among all particles. A formal expansion in the ratio of gas to tagged particle mass transforms the Boltzmann-Lorentz equation into a Fokker Planck equation. The predictions of the latter are tested here using direct Monte Carlo simulation of the Boltzmann-L...

This paper is concerned with interacting wave packet dynamics for long waves. The Kortweg-de Vries equation is the most well-known model for weakly nonlinear long waves. Although the dynamics of a single wave packet in this model is governed by the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation, implying that a plane wave is modulationally stable, the dynamics of two interacting wave packets is gove...
