NLTNs. The respective models are based on either 1D or 2D conservative and dissi-
pative nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations, derivative NLS equations cubic and
cubic-quintic complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equations, Kundu–Eckhaus equa-
tion, Chen-Liu and generalized Chen–Lee–Liu equations and cubic-quintic CGL
equations with derivative terms. Chapter 2 deals with the NLS models for solitons
propagation in 1D lossless nonlinear transmission networks, while Chap. 3 treats
the generation of dissipative solitons in one-dimensional NLTNs. In Chaps. 4 and 5,
we focus our attention, respectively, to the dynamics of rogue waves in 1D NLTNs
and to the transmission of nonlinear modulated waves in multi-component nonlinear
transmission networks.
Part II of this book titled “Dynamics of Matter-Wave and Magnetic-Wave Soli-
tons” is composed of eight chapters. In this part of the book, we develop basic theo-
retical results for the dynamics matter-wave and magnetic-wave solitons of nonlinear
systems in general and of Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) in particular, as well
as of optical fields trapped in external potentials, combined with the time-modulated
nonlinearity. The respective models are based on one-, two-, and three-component
non-autonomous Gross–Pitaevskii equations or NLS equations with external poten-
tials. Chapter 7 addresses the dynamics of one-component condensates with time
modulation of the scattering length and trapping potential. Here, the approach
outlined above leads to the construction and management of non-autonomous soli-
tons of 1D cubic self-defocusing NLS equations with spatiotemporally modulated
coefficients that may be transformed into the classical integrable NLS equation. In
this setting, matter-wave soliton solutions are constructed in an analytical form, and
it is shown that the instability of those solitons, if any, may be delayed or completely
eliminated by varying the nonlinearity’s strength in time. In this Chap. 7, we also engi-
neer non-autonomous matter-wave solitons in BECs with spatially modulated local
nonlinearity and a time-dependent harmonic-oscillator (HO) potential. The modula-
tional instability in that setting is considered too. Chapter 8 deals with the dynamics of
matter rogue waves in BECs trapped in time-dependent external potential. Chapter 9
treats the soliton generation in multi-component Bose–Einstein condensates. In
Chap. 10, we proceed to more general non-integrable models, which are treated
by means of the semi-analytical variational approximation and direct numerical
simulations. In this case, we address the dynamics of two- and three-dimensional
condensates with the nonlinearity strength containing constant and harmonically
varying parts, which can be implemented with the help of AC magnetic field tuned
to FR. In particular, the spatially uniform temporal modulation of the nonlinearity
may readily play the role of an effective trap that confines the condensate and some-
times enforces its collapse. Chapter 11 deals with the investigation of soliton states
in a model based on a set of three coupled GP equations modeling the dynamics
of the spinor BEC. Both integrable and non-integrable versions of the system are
considered, and exact soliton solutions are demonstrated. The stability of the solu-
tions was checked, in most cases, by direct simulations, and, in some cases, it was
investigated in a more rigorous form, based on linearized Bogoliubov–de Gennes
(BdG) equations for small perturbations. The motion of bright and dark matter-wave
solitons in 1D BEC in the presence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is also treated in
Preface ix
Chap. 11. Here, we demonstrate that the spin dynamics of the SOC solitons are
governed by a nonlinear Bloch equation and affects the orbital motion of the soli-
tons, leading to SOC effects in the dynamics of macroscopic quantum objects. The
models addressed in Chap. 11, as well as the applied methods and the obtained
results, are quite similar to those produced by the engineering. In particular, the
macroscopic SOC phenomenology is explained by the fact that an effective time-
periodic force produced by rotation of the soliton’s (pseudo-) spin plays the role of
temporal management which affects the motion of the same soliton. Chapters 12
and 13 deal with the dynamics of magnetization in ferromagnet with or without
spin-transfer torque.
This research book, which accurately treats the mathematical modeling of
nonlinear phenomena and presents methodically several methods for engineering
the propagation of nonlinear waves in nonlinear systems, is suitable for physicists,
mathematicians, engineers, as well as for graduate and postgraduate students from
schools of mathematics, physics, network, and information engineering.

Introduction
Abstract This Chapter introduces the first part of the Book. It presents nonlinear
transmission networks in general and, lossless/lossy nonlinear electric transmission
networks, in particular. Also, we present here scientific motivations for studying non-
linear excitations in both lossless and dissipative nonlinear transmission networks.
While various nonlinear partial differential equations have been explored in detail,
used to model the real systems in different scientific domains, and many solutions
of these equations have been found, there are only a few systems where solitons are
easily and directly observed in controlled laboratory experiments. Nonlinear trans-
mission networks (NLTNs)—most often, electric transmission lines—are relevant
examples of such experimentally available setups [1, 2]. Being discrete systems,
they approximate continuum media quite well, as shown in this part of our book.
Thus, NLTNs provide a reliable platform for studying the dynamics of excitations in
nonlinear media [2].
An electric NLTN is built as a transmission line with periodically inserted var-
actors, in which the capacitance nonlinearity arises from a variable depletion-layer
width, that depends both on the dc bias voltage and ac voltage of the propagating
waves. Usually, diodes with reverse-biased capacitance are employed as nonlinear
capacitors [3]. NLTNs constructed according to this scheme are very convenient
tools to study the wave propagation in one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear dispersive
media [4]. A growing interest to the work with NLTNs has been drawn since the
pioneering works by Hirota and Suzuki and by Nagashima and Amagishi on a single
electrical network simulating the Toda lattice [1, 5–10]. The multiplicative process
in NLTNs is understood as a direct consequence of the propagation of modulated
waves in this medium. Qualitatively, the origin of nonlinear waves, such as solitons,
in NLTNs is explained by the balance between the effect of dispersion, due to the
periodic location of capacitors, and nonlinearity due to the voltage dependence of
the capacitance [11].
Discrete electrical transmission networks have been used in the design of thin-
film and diffusion resistors, capacitors, and conductors, as well as for evaluation of

wave solutions (as for examples solitons, breathers, and rogue waves) for the nonlin-
ear systems is a fascinating subject in the field of contemporary nonlinear science,
which has attracted widespread attention from many experts and scholars. In nonlin-
ear dispersive media, MI is a nonlinear process, in which a continuous plane wave
generates amplitude and frequency self-modulation through a nonlinear dispersive
medium, resulting in exponential growth of small perturbations superimposed on a
plane wave.
This part of the book is composed of two parts, which deal with, respectively,
single-(1D) and multi-component (2D) NLTNs. In each part, we consider both loss-
less and the dissipative NLTNs. The respective models are based on either 1D or
2D conservative and dissipative nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations, derivative
NLS (DNLS) equation, cubic and cubic-quintic complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL)
equations, Kundu–Eckhaus (KE) equation [30–34], Chen-Liu [35] and generalized
Chen-Lee-Liu equation [36], and a cubic-quintic (CQ) CGL equation with derivative
terms. The first part of this book, which addresses the dynamics of modulated waves
in single (1D) and two-dimensional (alias multi-component) NLTNs, is composed
of four Chapters. This chapter deals with the NLS models for solitons propagation in
one-dimensional lossless nonlinear transmission networks, while Chap. 2 treats the
generation of dissipative solitons in one-dimensional NLTNs. Chapters 3 and 4 deal
with respectively the dynamics of rogue waves in 1D NLTNs and the transmission
of modulated waves in multi-component nonlinear transmission networks.

Nonlinear Schrödinger Models for
Solitons Propagation in 1D Lossless
Nonlinear Transmission Networks
(NLTNs)
2.1 Introduction
Nonlinear Schrödinger type equations are models emerging from a wide variety of
fields and playing a significant role in many fields of science such as fluids, nonlin-
ear optics, the theory of deep water waves, plasma physics, nonlinear transmission
networks, nuclear physics, Bose–Einstein condensates, condensed matter physics,
and so on. The present chapter deals with the study of a modified NLTN of the
Noguchi type (which was introduced in [1]) depicted in Fig. 2.1. Such a model is
composed of N identical cells, each of which contains a linear inductor L1 shunted
by a linear capacitor C S in the series branch, and in the transverse branch, a non-
linear capacitor C shunted by another linear inductor L2 . The nonlinear capacitor
is voltage-dependent and is realized as a reverse-biased diode. This physical model
differs from the Hirota-Suzuki model [2] by the presence of the linear dispersive
capacitance C S . Built by Noguchi to experimentally study the propagation of the
first-order Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) solitons [1], the linear dispersive capacitance
C S was absent in its first version.
The physical model shown in Fig. 2.1 has been used by Ichikawa et al. [3] to predict
the realization of KdV-like solitons in it; it has been generalized by Yoshinaga et al.
[4] to experimentally study properties of solitons of the KdV type. Most recently,

Pelap et al. [5] addressed the existence of solitary waves in this network system.
Some years ago, Marklund and Shukla [6] investigated by means of Kengne and Liu
model [7] the MI of partially coherent signals in the transmission lines shown in Fig.
2.1. The main purpose of this Chapter is to present various PDEs of Schrödinger
type that are used to model and to investigate the dynamics of nonlinear modulated
waves propagating in the network of Fig. 2.1. A particular attention will be paid to
the effects of linear dispersive capacitance C S on the soliton propagation.
The present Section deals with the study of dynamics of solitons in the modified
Noguchi lossless electrical transmission network displayed in Fig. 2.1. Employing
the reductive perturbation method in the semi-discrete limit, we establish that the
dynamics of modulated waves are described by one-dimensional NLS equations.
Based on these equations, the analytical results predict either two or four frequency
regions with different behavior concerning the MI. Applying the Darboux transform
to the found network equations, we produce exact bright and dark solitons embedded
in the CW background. Our investigation reveal that the physical system under con-
sideration may support the propagation of bright, dark, and kink soliton signals. Also,
we show that when a wave packet travels along the lattice, it experiences velocity
fluctuations which become more and more pronounced with the increase of lattice

Throughout this Section, we focus ourselves to the network system of Fig. 2.1 with
linear dispersion element C S that satisfies the condition C S < (L 2 /L 1 ) C0 so that
the group velocity υg = dω/dk remains positive in the Brilloum zone 0 ≤ k ≤ π .
During the numerical simulations, the following network parameters will be used [9]:
L 1 = 28 μH, L 2 = 14 μH, C0 = 540 pF, V0 = 1.5 V, α = 0.16 V−1 , β = 0.0197 V−2 , (2.3)

with a small parameter ε 1. Here, υg = dω/dk, ω and k being related by the linear
dispersion relation (2.2). Then, we seek solutions for system (2.1) in the general form
Vn (t) = εV01 (ξ, τ ) exp(iθ ) + ε2 [V02 (ξ, τ ) + V12 (ξ, τ ) exp(2iθ )] + c.c., (2.5)
where θ = kn − ωt is the rapidly varying phase and c.c. stands for the complex
conjugation. In the general form (2.5), the term proportional to ε2 is included in the
dc part to take into account the asymmetry of the charge-voltage relation.
Substituting ansatz (2.5) into the nonlinear discrete system (2.1) and neglecting
terms of higher order in ε, one arrives, after keeping up to the second-order derivatives
of Vn (t) (this is done to secure the balance of the dispersion and nonlinearity), to the
following results
Here,

Q = ω + 02 − . (2.7c)
2 12
As we can see from Eqs. (2.6a), (2.6b), (2.7a), and (2.7c), the two last terms in the
expression for nonlinear coefficient Q of the NLS equation (2.6c) come from the ε2
terms in the general expression (2.5) for Vn (t). From expression (2.7b), it is seen that
the ε2 terms does not affect the dispersion coefficient P. This means that, assuming
a solution in the form of (2.5) without ε2 terms, one arrives at another NLS equation
similar to Eq. (2.6c), except for the nonlinear coefficient which is
Q = 3βω/2. (2.8)
The above methodology shows that one may obtain two NLS equations with the
same dispersion coefficient P, but different nonlinear coefficients Q, allowing the
investigation of the dynamics of solitons in the network of Fig. 2.1. If we apply now
the MI criterion for the NLS equation [11], we can conclude that a uniform wavetrain
propagating along the network of Fig. 2.1 is unstable under modulation for P Q > 0,
and remains stable for P Q < 0. In the situation when the nonlinearity parameter Q of
the NLS equation is given by Eq. (2.8), product P Q and P have the same sign as soon
as ω is always positive; this behavior can be seen from Fig. 2.3b. Now, considering
that the nonlinear coefficient Q is given by Eq. (2.7c), one of the three scenarios
shown in Fig. 2.3 occurs, depending on the value of dispersive parameter C S . Indeed,
max Q(k) = Q max (C S ) is an increasing continuous function of C S , with Q max (0) <
[0,π]
0 < Q max (C0 /2). Therefore, there exists a unique value, C S = C S0 ∈ [0, C0 /2] that
satisfies the relationship Q max (C S0 ) = 0. For every C S < C S0 , one has Q (k) < 0,
while for every C S > C S0 , equation Q(k) = 0 has two solutions, kq1 and kq2 , in
interval [0, π ]. Different shapes of the region of the MI by the wave solution of the
NLS equation (2.6c) with the nonlinear coefficient (2.7c) are displayed in Fig. 2.3.
In Fig. 2.3d–f, f k shows the value of the frequency for the wavenumber k = k z that
satisfies the relationship P(k z ) = 0, that is, f z = f (k z ); in these same figures, f q1 and
f q2 are frequencies associated with Q(k) = 0. Figure 2.3d shows two MI regions,
the one with f ∈ [ f min , f z ] corresponding to P Q < 0, hence the modulationally
stable CW and hole (dark) solitons, and region f ∈ [ f z , f max ] corresponding to
P Q > 0, that is, MI and bright envelope solitons. In Fig. 2.3e, three regions of
the modulational instability can be observed, the one f ∈ [ f min , f z ] corresponding
to P Q < 0 (modulational stability and dark solitons), and two regions f ∈ [ f z ,
f q1 ] ∪ [ f q1 , f max ] corresponding to P Q > 0 (MI and envelope solitons). From Fig.

2.3f, we can clearly see four regions of MI: two regions of f ∈ [ f min , f z ] and f ∈
[ f q1 , f q2 ], corresponding to P Q < 0 (modulational stability and hole solitons), and
two regions f ∈ [ f z , f q1 ] and f ∈ [ f q2 , f max ] corresponding to P Q > 0 (once again,
this implies the presence of the MI and bright solitons).
In Fig. 2.4, we depict the product P Q versus the wavenumber k for different
values of dispersion parameter C S . Plots of Fig. 2.4a correspond to the NLS equation
(2.6c) with nonlinear coefficient (2.8), while Fig. 2.4b and c are obtained with the
nonlinear coefficient Q given by Eq. (2.7c) for C S < C S0 and C S > C S0 , respectively. It
is clearly seen from Figs. 2.2a and 2.4a, that the region of negative P Q (modulational
stability) for NLS equation (2.6c) with nonlinear coefficient (2.8) enhances when the
dispersion parameter C S increases. From Figs. 2.2a and 2.4b, we can see that the
region of negative P Q (i.e., the region of the modulational stability) of NLS equation
(2.6c) with nonlinear coefficient (2.7c) shrinks when the dispersion parameter C S
increases, being capped by C S < C S0 . As one can seen from Figs. 2.2a and 2.4c, using
nonlinear coefficient (2.7c), the modulational stability region (P Q < 0) shrinks for
low frequencies and enhances for
higher frequencies,
when C S > C S0 increases. In
other words, the size of interval f min , f z decreases ( f z is getting smaller) while
that of interval [ f q1 , f q2 ] increases ( f q1 decreases and f q2 increases) when C S > C S0
increases.

With the use of the NLS equations (2.6c) with the nonlinear coefficient Q given by
Eq. (2.7c) and by Eq. (2.8), we here aim to study analytically the propagation of
bright and dark solitary waves through the network of Fig. 2.1. For this purpose, we
first find analytical soliton like solutions of the NLS equation (2.6c).

here, Acb , Acd , kcb , kcd , and δ0 are arbitrary real constants. If we apply the Darboux

sitting on top of a flat background. Different parameters appearing in solutions (2.9a)

turn into the following bright soliton solution and the kink solution

ξ0 and τ0 being arbitrary real constants. This means that solutions (2.9a) and (2.9b)
produce solitary waves embedded into the CW background.
Substituting expressions (2.9a) and (2.9b) into Eqs. (2.6a) and (2.6b) leads to
analytical expressions for V02 (ξ, τ ) and V12 (ξ, τ ). If we then insert the expressions
of V10 (ξ, τ ), V02 (ξ, τ ) and V12 (ξ, τ ) in the general form (2.5) for voltage Vn (t) and
going back to the original coordinate n and time t by means of Eq. (2.4), we will
obtain the analytical expressions for Vn (t). These results for Vn (t) can be used to
investigate analytically the dynamics of solitons in the network system of Fig. 2.1.
Next, we separately discuss the dynamics of solitons in the MI region (envelope
solitons given by Eq. (2.9a)) and in the region of the modulational stability (hole
solitons defined by Eq. (2.9b)).
Using the zeros of functions P = P(k) and Q = Q(k), the regions of the MI for
the NLS equation (2.6c) are displayed in Fig. 2.3 for a given set of the network
parameters, with nonlinear coefficient (2.7c) or (2.8).
In the regions of MI, that is, the regions of positive P Q, the solitons are enve-
lope modes propagating on top of the CW background, defined by expression (2.9a).
Without the loss of generality, we consider here the NLS equation (2.6c) with disper-
sion coefficient (2.7b). First of all, we notice that the situation with 4 A2cb − A2sb = 0
leads to a constant solution. In what follows, we focus on three special cases, viz.,
the bright soliton with a vanishing CW background (Acb = 0), the case of ksb = kcb
and A2sb − 4 A2cb < 0, and, finally, the one with ksb = kcb and A2sb − 4 A2cb > 0.
Case Acb = 0 By taking Acb = 0, solution (2.9a) of NLS equation (2.6c) for positive
P Q (i.e., solution (2.10a)) can be written as follows:

ground is chosen as kcb = k 4 A2cb − A2sb , where k is an integer. Any wavenumber
kcb = k 4 A2cb − A2sb will lead to an aperiodic solution in both time and space.
We display in Fig. 2.6 the evolution of the MI corresponding to solution (2.12)
for the network parameters (2.3) with C S = C0 /5. Figure 2.6a–c and d–f show the
transmission of the soliton-like signals through the network at frequencies f = 2.018
MHz and f = 2.256 MHz, respectively. Therefore, the envelope solitons in Fig.
2.6a–c propagate at the frequency taken from the MI region [ f min , f z ], while the
pulses of Fig. 2.6g, h are associated with the frequency taken from the MI region,
[ f q2 , f max ]. Figure 2.6g, h show solitons propagating at different frequencies taken
from the same MI region; here, it is clearly seen that the CW background becomes
unstable. From Fig. 2.6, we can conclude that the choice of the propagating frequency
in the MI region affects the soliton propagation. Figure 2.6 also reveals that, with the
best choice of solution parameters, the solution is periodic in time, with the period
increasing with the underlying frequency. This can be clearly seen in Fig. 2.6c, f, as
well as in Fig. 2.6g, h. Moreover, Fig. 2.6g, h reveal that the envelope soliton features
different behavior at frequencies taken from the low- and high-frequency regions of
the MI. We conclude from Fig. 2.6g and h that the temporal period of the wave is
related to the propagating frequency f of the envelope soliton: In the low-frequency
MI region, the period increases with f , while in the high-frequency region the period
decreases.
Case ksb = kcb and A2sb − 4 A2cb > 0 In the special case when ksb = kcb and A2sb −

behavior when propagating at frequencies taken from the low- and high-frequency

smaller frequency reach their peak earlier than ones with a higher frequency. The
opposite situation is observed for the solitons in high-frequency MI region.

Employing now solution (2.9b), we address here the dynamics of solitons propagating
in the network at frequencies taken from the regions of the modulational stability. As
we have already mentioned, the analytical solution (2.9b) describes the propagation of
dark (hole) solitons on the non-vanishing CW background V01c (ξ, τ ). √ The analytical
expression (2.9b) shows that the soliton amplitude is proportional to −Q/(2P).
Firstly, it is important to notice that for vanishing CW background, i.e., when
Acd = 0, solution (2.9b) is associated with the propagation of a kink soliton through
the network, as it is shown in Fig. 2.8, which is produced by the NLS equation (2.6c)
with the nonlinearity coefficient (2.7c). Figure 2.8 shows the temporal profile of
stable kink solitary waves at the 350-th cell at low and high frequencies (left and right
panels, respectively). Plots of the top, middle, and bottom panels correspond to the
network with the dispersion parameter C S = C0 /5, C S = C0 /4.5 and C S = C0 /4.1,
respectively. The left and right panels of Fig. 2.8 show that, independently of the
value of C S , the soliton’s speed decreases as the propagating frequency increases.
Secondly, in the non-vanishing CW background (i.e., at Acb = 0), solution (2.9b)
leads to the propagation of dark solitons embedded in the CW background. Thus,
expression (2.9b), may lead to the dark soliton solution of Eq. (2.1) which corre-
sponds to waves propagating on a CW background. An example of the propagation
of the dark soliton is shown in Fig. 2.9. The top and the bottom panels of Fig.
2.9 show respectively dark solitons propagating at different frequencies, taken from

2.3.1 Introduction
Femtosecond pulses have been extensively investigated for the past few decades, due
to their wide applications in many different physical systems such as ultrahigh-bit-
rate optical communication systems [13], ultrafast physical processes [14], infrared
time-resolved spectroscopy [15], and optical sampling systems [16]. Nonlinear
partial differential equations with higher-order nonlinear and dispersive terms of
Schrödinger types have been used to explain a variety of effects in the propagation
of pulses in such systems. These equations in general and the NLS models in partic-
ular are generally not completely integrable and cannot be solved exactly by using
traditional methods [17]. Therefore, these models do not have soliton solutions in
general. However, they can admit solitary-wave solutions. The generation and prop-
agation of solitons in nonlinear systems result, as we well-know, generally from the
phenomenon of the MI [18, 19]. The phenomenon of the modulational instability
22 2 Nonlinear Schrödinger Models for Solitons Propagation …
appears in many nonlinear dispersive systems and indicates that due to the interplay
between nonlinearity and the dispersive effects, a small perturbation on the envelope
of a plane wave may induce an exponential growth of the wave amplitude, resulting
in the carrier-wave breakup into a train of localized waves [20].
The main purpose of this Section is the analytical transmission of chirped fem-
tosecond soliton signals and periodic pulse trains through the modified Noguchi
nonlinear electric transmission network system of Fig. 2.1. Some years ago, Liu
and Kengne [10] presented a model for wave propagation on the discrete electrical
transmission network of Fig. 2.1 based on the generalized cubic-quintic derivative
nonlinear Schrödinger (GCQD-NLS) equation, derived in the small amplitude and
long wavelength limit using the standard reductive perturbation technique and com-
plex expansion on the governing nonlinear equations. This GCQD-NLS equation,
also referred to as the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with derivative
terms, reads
∂ψ ∂ 2ψ ∂ψ ∗ ∂ψ
i + P 2 + Q 3 |ψ|2 ψ + Q 5 |ψ|4 ψ + iχ1 ψ 2 + iχ2 |ψ|2 = 0.
∂t ∂x ∂x ∂x
(2.14)
Here, ψ(x, t) is the complex envelope of the electric field, t and x are respectively
the temporal and the spatial coordinates, and P, Q 3 , Q 5 , χ1 , and χ2 coefficients
expressed in terms of the network parameters. Throughout this Section, we will
mostly use the following equivalent form of Eq. (2.14)
∂ψ ∂2ψ ∂ 2 ∂ 2
i + P 2 + Q 3 |ψ|2 ψ + Q 5 |ψ|4 ψ + i Q 13 |ψ| ψ + i Q 14 ψ |ψ| = 0,
∂t ∂x ∂x ∂x
(2.15)
where Q 13 = χ2 − χ1 and Q 14 = 2χ1 − χ2 . In the context of NLS models, P is
the group velocity dispersion (GVD) parameter, Q 3 and Q 5 represent respectively
the cubic or Kerr nonlinearity and the quintic or non-Kerr nonlinearity, while Q 13
and Q 14 are respectively the self-steepening and the self-frequency shift coefficients
which arise from stimulated Raman scattering. In cases of self-focusing (Q 3 > 0),
self-defocusing (Q 3 < 0), and zero Kerr nonlinearities, cubic nonlinearity Q 3 can
be normalized to 1, −1, and 0. The nonlinearity that arises because of the fifth-order
susceptibility can be obtained in many optical materials such as semiconductor-doped
glasses, semiconductors, polydiacetylene toluene sulfonate, AlGaAs, chalcogenide
glasses, and some transparent organic materials [21]. The cubic term |ψ|2 ψ in the
context of fiber optics is often referred to as self-phase modulation and its coefficient
Q 3 can be scaled out to the GVD term, which will be termed normal (anomalous)
dispersion depending on whether Q 3 < 0 (Q 3 > 0) [21]. Arising from an intensity-
dependent group velocity, the self-steepening of an optical fiber pulse produces a
temporal pulse distortion and an asymmetry in the pulse spectrum [22, 23]. The last
term of Eq. (2.15) related to Q 14 incorporates the intrapulse Raman scattering and
originates from the delayed Raman response [note that for model (2.15), the intrapulse
Raman scattering coefficient is Q 13 + Q 14 = χ1 ], which causes a self-frequency
shift. The self-frequency shift is the main driving mechanism of several wavelength
2.3 Modulational Instability and Transmission… 23
Here, we focus ourselves on the MI and the transmission through the network of
Fig. 2.1 of femtosecond solitonlike pulses, propagating on a non-vanishing CW
background with nonlinear chirp. In order to build such pulses and investigate their
MI, we start by performing the Madelung transformation [25, 26]
where φ(x, t) is the new unknown complex amplitude and θ (x, t) is a real function,
relating with φ(x, t) as follows

∂t ∂x ∂x
in Eq. (2.17b), φ ∗ (x, t) is a the complex conjugate of φ(x, t) and α10 , α12 , and α13
are three real parameters given in terms of the network parameters as

Replacing Eq. (2.16) into Eq. (2.15) and employing the relationships (2.17a), (2.17b)
and (2.17c), we obtain the following cubic NLS equation for φ :

Equation (2.18a) (or its equivalent form (2.19a)) is the standard NLS equation.

+1, (P Q 3 < 0, i.e, κ0 = −1) [27]. Its soliton solutions obtained in the vanishing
boundary conditions are known. In order to obtain our results in terms of the network
parameters, our preference of the equation to be used here is Eq. (2.18a) (remember
that the coefficients of Eq. (2.15) are expressed, according to Ref. [10], in terms of
the network parameters). To study the phenomenon of the MI, we need to find exact
solutions of Eq. (2.18a) on the non-vanishing CW background

the solution solutions of the NLS equation (2.18a) in the form [28]

Here, b, c, d, ϕ and ϑ and ξ are given respectively by Eqs. (2.22) and (2.23b), and Acw ,
kcw , Acw , and Asol are arbitrary real constants. It is well seen from Eqs. (2.25a) and
(2.25b) that the nonlinear part of the frequency chirp strongly depends of the GVD
parameter P and both the self-steepening and the self-frequency shift coefficients
Q 13 and Q 14 through the nonlinear chirp parameter μ = −α10 , α10 being given by
Eq. (2.17c); on the other hand, the pulse intensity |ψ(x, t)|2 is independent of Q 13
and Q 14 . This means that we can control the chirping amplitude by varying the self-
steeping and self-frequency shift terms of Eq. (2.15). It is important to notice that
solutions (2.24b) and (2.24b) and the corresponding chirping (2.25a) and (2.25b)
are different from those obtained in Ref. [29] and can be used to investigate the
dynamics of chirped femtosecond bright and dark solitons in the network of Fig. 2.1.
The nonlinear chirp parameter μ and the constant chirp parameters − Q2P 3 kcw
or −k1
are similar to those obtained in Ref. [29].
2.3 Modulational Instability and Transmission… 27
Now, we turn to the study of the dynamics of chirped bright/dark solitons embed-
ded on a CW background and the corresponding chirping. For this aim, we distinguish
three special cases, namely, the case Acw = 0 corresponding to soliton signals prop-
agating on the vanishing CW background, the case kcw = ksol and 4 A2cw − A2sol > 0,
and the case kcw = ksol and 4 A2cw − A2sol < 0 corresponding respectively to

and 4 A2cw − A2sol < 0 is a dark soliton (see the first and last columns of Fig. 2.10),
while that of bright pulse in the case kcw = ksol and 4 A2cw − A2sol > 0 is a bright soli-
tary wave, as we can see from the plots of the middle column of Fig. 2.10. As we
can clearly see from plots of the middle (right) columns, the pulse amplitude and the
corresponding chirping are periodic (aperiodic) in the x− coordinate and aperiodic
(periodic) in the t− coordinate when kcw = ksol and 4 A2cw − A2sol > 0 (kcw = ksol and
4 A2cw − A2sol < 0). In Fig. 2.11a and d, we show the evolution of the dark solitary
signal propagating on a vanishing CW background and the corresponding chirping
when the nonlinear chirping parameter μ is negative. From the plots of the middle
and left panels of Fig. 2.11, we can observe the propagation of dark pulses embedded
on a non-vanishing CW background for respectively positive and negative nonlinear
chirping parameter μ. From the plots of the left and right panels of Fig. 2.11, we can
conclude that the chirping associated with dark solitary signals corresponding to a
negative nonlinear chirping parameter μ are bright pulses, while that with positive
nonlinear chirping parameter μ corresponding to the dark solitary pulse is of dark
soliton type, as we can well see from Fig. 2.11b and e. We thus conclude from the
plots of Figs. 2.10 and 2.11 that the chirping profile of a bright (Fig. 2.10) or a dark
(Fig. 2.11) solitary signal can be either of bright type or of dark soliton type.
Remark: It is important to notice that when kcw = ksol , Acw << Asol and 4 A2cw −
A2sol < 0, the background becomes very small within the existence of chirped bright
soliton, and the bright soliton given by Eq. (2.24b) will be stable under modulation.
As well as we know, a small perturbation for Eq. (2.24b) may lead to the modulation
instability in the situation when 4A2cw − A2sol > 0 with kcw = ksol [17, 30]. In order to
understand such a modulational instability process, we compute, under the conditions
kcw = ksol and 4 A2cw − A2sol > 0, the initial value of solution (2.24b) for ϑ0 = 0 as

Here, we are interested in finding chirped modulated nonlinear waves with special
properties that propagate along the network of Fig. 2.1. For this purpose, we use ansatz
(2.16) under the restrictions (2.17a) and (2.17b). One of the particularities of such
nonlinear modulated waves is that their chirping has two nonlinear parts and varies
as directly and inversely proportional to the intensity of the wave. To derive such
nonlinear modulated waves, we seek the complex envelope traveling-wave solutions
of Eq. (2.18a) as
φ(x, t) = ρ(z) exp [i {λ(z) − υt}] , (2.27)
where z = x − υt is the traveling coordinate and ρ(z) and λ(z) are real functions of
z. Inserting Eq. (2.27) in ansatz (2.16) yields

δω(x, t) = − [λ(z) − υt + θ (x, t)] = − + ρ (z).

It is seen from Eq. (2.28d) that the chirping will be directly and inversely proportional
to the wave intensity as soon as Q 1 = 0. Equation (2.28d) means that the value of the
chirp parameter contains a free parameter Q 1 and depends on different coefficients of
the higher-order NLS equation (2.15) such as diffraction, self-steepening, and self-
frequency shift. Therefore, the amplitude of chirping can be managed by varying
these four parameters. Now, if we insert Eq. (2.28c) into Eq. (2.28a), we obtain the
elliptic ordinary differential equation (EODE)

which is known to have a variety of solutions such as solitonlike solutions and periodic
solutions that can be expressed in a generic form by means of the Weierstrass elliptic
function ℘ [31, 32]. The classification of the behavior of solutions u(z) of Eq.
(2.29) can be made as follows: First, we introduce the so-called invariants g2 and g3
of function ℘ [33]: g2 = −4βδ + 3γ 2 and g3 = 2βδγ − γ 3 − εβ 2 , which are then
used to introduce the discriminant of ℘ and F as = g23 − 27g32 . Using these three
parameters, we can classify the behavior of solutions u(z) of Eq. (2.29) as follows:
If either = 0 or = 0 and g2 > 0 and g3 > 0, then u(z) is periodic; if = 0,
g2 ≥ 0 and g3 ≤ 0, then u(z) is solitary wavelike [33]. Conditions under which Eq.
(2.29) admits real and bounded solutions u(z) can be obtained by considering the
phase diagrams of F(u) [33]. In the following, we focus ourselves to special cases
of Eq. (2.29) leading to solitonlike and periodic solutions, that leads respectively to
chirped solitary pulses and chirped periodic pulses propagating along the network
of Fig. 2.1.
Definition: We call two wave solutions u 1 (z) and u 2 (z) of Eq. (2.29) two sister wave
solutions if there exist two real constants B0 = 0 and C0 = 0 so that
and y(z) and w(z) are solutions of the nonlinear ordinary differential equations

the use of two sister wave solutions of Eq. (2.29) will be referred to as two sister
wave solutions of the NLS equation (2.15). The corresponding electric signals will
be referred to as two sister electric signals.
Sister Solitary Wave Solutions of the Higher-Order NLS Equation (2.15)
In order that Eqs. (2.30c) and (2.30d) admit simultaneously solitary solutions, param-
eters β, γ , δ, and A0 must satisfy the condition

Eqs. (2.32a) and (2.32b), two sister solitonlike solutions (2.32a)-(2.32b) will take
the same value, A0 at z = 0.
Now, if we use Eqs. (2.32b), (2.32a), (2.27), and (2.16), we obtain, under condi-

pulses, respectively; in Fig. 2.13b and d, we show respectively the evolution of a

while the dark solitonlike wave signal plotted in Fig. 2.13c leads to a dark-bright-dark

In the following subsections, we describe two classes of two sister periodic wave
solutions of Eq. (2.38) with the help of which one can build two sister periodic
solutions of the higher-order NLS equation (2.15) that model the propagation of two
sister periodic wave pulses through the network of Fig. 2.1.

It is important to note that Eq. (2.41a) and Eq. (2.39c) are two distinct solutions of
Eq. (2.30c); indeed, they are obtained under different conditions of α1 , α2 , and α3 .
Because y(z) = 0 for all real z and B0 and C0 satisfy the Eq. (2.36b), solution (2.41a)
gives birth to the solution

Two Sister Periodic Wave Solutions of Eq. (2.29)
By using the above two sister periodic wave solutions (2.39c) and (2.41a) of Eq.
(2.38), we can, with the use of Eq. (2.30a), write down the following two sister
periodic wave solutions of Eq. (2.29),
where y B0 (z) and yC0 (z) are obtained from Eqs. (2.39c) and (2.41a) by replacing
respectively D0 by B0 and C0 in α1 and α3 , as one can see from Eq. (2.37a). For
example, in the special case when B0 and C0 satisfy Eq. (2.36b), Eqs. (2.41a) and
(2.41b) lead to the following two sister dn-nd periodic wave solutions of Eq. (2.29)

For the above numerical values of parameters, we show in Fig. 2.17 the typical
periodic solutions generated with the use of Eqs. (2.43a) and (2.43b); different plots
of this figure behave like periodic dark solitonlike waves. As we can clearly see
from plots of Fig. 2.17, the amplitude of the nd wave given by Eq. (2.43b) is higher
than that of the dn wave given by Eq. (2.43a). Also, Fig. # 2.17c
# and d show that the
#P#
amplitude and the width of the wave increase when # Q 3 # increases. We can then
conclude that parameter P of the GVD and parameter Q 3 of the cubic nonlinearity
can be used to control two sister nonlinear modulated waves of the higher NLS
equation (2.15). Figure 2.18 show how parameters Q 13 and Q 14 of self-steeping and
self-frequency shift can be used to manage the motion of the chirping. Depending
on the choice of these two parameters, the chirping corresponding to the two sister
dn-nd periodic wave solutions (2.43a) and (2.43b) can behave like (i) periodic bright
solitons as it is seen from Fig. 2.18a, (ii) periodic bright two-solitons as one can see
from dashed plot of Fig. 2.18b, (iii) periodic dark solitons as shown in Fig. 2.18c,
or (iv) periodic bright-dark-bright solitons, as we can see from dashed plots of Fig.

with those of the bottom panels generated with P/Q 3 = −0.245, we conclude that
the behavior of the chirping also depends on parameter P of the GVD and parameter
Q 3 of the cubic nonlinearity. As we can clearly see from plots of Fig. 2.18, the
amplitude and the width of the chirping increase as |P/Q 3 | increases. For a better
understanding, we display in Fig. 2.19 the chirping profiles for both the dn and nd
periodic wave solutions (2.43a) and (2.43b) for different values of P/Q 3 .
In order to obtain two sister periodic wave solutions of Eq. (2.15), we go
back to ψ(x, t) by substituting Eq. (2.42a) into Eq. (2.27) and then, inserting the
resulting equation into Eq. (2.16). For example, two sister dn and nd periodic
wave solutions of the higher-order NLS equation (2.15) generated from Eqs. (2.43a)
and (2.43b) are found to be

where α1 , α2 , and α3 are given by Eq. (2.37a) with which D0 = B0 and satisfy
conditions (2.40d), θ (x, t) is any real function satisfying conditions (2.17a) and
(2.17b), λ(z) is any solution of Eq. (2.28c), with z = x − υt. The free parameters
A0 , Q 1 = 0, υ, δ, and B0 must be suitably chosen from Eq. (2.36a), that is, they must
be chosen so that the conditions (2.40d) are fulfilled and the main square root in Eq.
(2.44a) is defined. Chirping δω(x, t) associated with solutions (2.44a) and (2.44b)
are obtained by inserting respectively Eqs. (2.43a) and (2.43b) with z = x − υt
into Eq. (2.28d). In Fig. 2.20a and b, we depict the spatiotemporal evolution of the
two sister dn and nd periodic nonlinear modulated waves obtained with the help of
respectively solutions (2.44a) and (2.44b) of the higher-order NLS equation (2.15).
The evolution of the corresponding chirping is shown in Fig. 2.20c and d, respectively.
From Fig. 2.20a and b, it is clearly seen that the two sister dn-nd modulated wave
corresponding to solutions (2.44a) and (2.44b) behave like periodic dark solitons.
The chirping shown in Fig. 2.20c has the behavior of periodic bright solitons. It is
clearly seen from Fig. 2.20d that the chirping for the nd modulated wave plotted in
Fig. 2.20b behaves like periodic bright two-solitons.
In conclusion, we have showed that the propagation of ultrashort pulses along the
lossless network of Fig. 2.1 are modeled by a higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger
equation with derivative terms. With the help of this NLS equation, the phenomenon
of the modulational instability in the network under consideration has been inves-
tigated and our results reveal that the competing higher-order nonlinearity induces
propagating on CW background solitonlike bright (dark) solitary wave and rogue
wave signals in the lossless network of Fig. 2.1. The concept of two sister nonlin-
ear modulated waves was introduced and their properties were explored; through
bright solitonlike waves and periodic waves, the propagation of such nonlinear mod-
ulated waves in the network under consideration is analyzed. We have shown that the
nonlinear chirp associated with each of electric solitary pulses embedded on a CW
background is directly proportional to the intensity of the pulse, while chirping asso-
ciated with each two sister modulated nonlinear waves is formed of two nonlinear
parts, one of which is directly proportional to the intensity of the wave, while another
part is inversely proportional to the intensity of the wave. Also, we have obtained
that the amplitude of the chirping can be managed by varying the parameters of the
GVD and cubic nonlinearity.

Our investigations also revealed the amplification [the compression] of two sister
chirped femtosecond modulated signals can be enhanced by either increasing |P|
or decreasing |Q 3 | [decreasing |P| or increasing |Q 3 |], and the wave structure is
not destroyed during the process. It is also established that these two parameters P
and Q 3 have important effects of the feature of the chirping. They also have some
effect on the unlimited transmission of the compressed amplified chirping in an
inhomogeneous media. Through our results, one can conclude that the self-steeping
and self-frequency parameters Q 13 and Q 14 have a universal influence on chirping
dynamics.

Transmission of Dissipative Solitonlike
Signals Through One-Dimensional
Transmission Networks
Abstract This chapter presents analytical results for the dynamics of nonlin-
ear modulated waves in dissipative electrical nonlinear transmission networks. We
employ the reductive perturbation method in the semi-discrete limit to derive a dis-
sipative NLS equation that models the propagation of nonlinear modulated waves
in the given network. Based on both the direct method and the method of Weier-
strass elliptic functions, we present classes of bright, kink, dark, or chirped Lambert
W-kink solitonlike solutions of the amplitude equations. These solitonlike solutions
are then used to investigate analytically the transmission of dissipative solitonlike
signals through the networks under consideration. Effects of the dissipation are also
investigated. Naturally, the wave’s amplitude decreases and its width increases under
the action of the dissipation. We show how the dissipative elements of the networks
can be used to control the motion of solitonlike signals during their propagation along
the dissipative network system under consideration.
3.1.1 Introduction
demonstrate through a generalized CQ CGL equation [15] how the Lambert function
W function can be used to investigate the propagation of chirped pulses along a lossy
nonlinear electric transmission network.
The model under consideration is the discrete nonlinear transmission network
with dissipative elements made of N identical blocks, illustrated in Fig. 3.1 [1]. Each
single block contains a linear inductor with inductance L1 in the series branch and
a linear inductor with inductance L2 in parallel with the bias-dependent nonlinear
capacitor C(V ) in the shunt branches. To take into consideration the dissipative effects
of the network, two linear conductances G 1 and G 2 are connected in parallel with,
respectively, L1 and L2 . In this model, the nonlinear capacitance C(V ), responsible
for nonlinearity of the system, consists of a reversed-biased diode with differential
capacitance which is a function of voltage Vn across the n-th capacitor, biased by a
constant voltage Vb . For low voltage, it is of the form [1]

with n = 1, 2, . . . , N − 1; here, u02 = (C0 L1 )−1 and ω02 = (L2 C0 )−1 are the dimen-

tively, while σ1 and σ2 are dimensionless conductances

σ1 = G1,
σ2 = G2. (3.3)

Throughout this Section, numerical results will be displayed for the network
parameters
L1 = 220 µH, L2 = 470µH, C0 = 370 pF, α = 0.21 V−1 , β = 0.0197 V−2 . (3.4)
For the numerical simulation, the total number N of cells in the network must be
chosen so to eliminate wave reflection at the edge of the network.
3.1 Chirped Lambert W-Kink Waves Propagation in a Lossy Electrical … 49
In order to derive the governing equation (amplitude equation) that models the prop-
agation of slowly modulated waves in the lossy network of Fig. 3.1, we employ the
reductive perturbation method in the semidiscrete limit. In other words, we introduce
the continuum approximation for the envelope and keep a discrete description for the
carrier wave, whose wavenumber kp ranges over the Brilloum zone (0 ≤ kp ≤ π ),
with the corresponding frequency ωp = 2π fp . For this aim, two slow time scales are
introduced as T1 = εt and T2 = ε2 t, in addition to the original one, T0 ≡ t. Also,
one slow spatial coordinate X1 is introduced as X1 = εx, in addition to original one,
x ≡ n. When studying the dissipative effects on the dynamics of modulated waves
propagating through the network system of Fig. 3.1, Yemélé et al. [1] have found that
the most important one comes from conductance G 1 in the series branch of the net-
work. Conductance G 2 in the shunt branch may then be disregarded when addressing
the linear propagation, while effects originating from G 2 and the nonlinearity appear
in the same perturbation equation; therefore we set σ2 ≡ ε2 σ2 . Next, the solution
Vn (t) of the difference-differential system (3.2) is sought in the general form [2]

dissipation parameter χ is an increasing function of the angular frequency ω in the

decays more rapidly when
the frequency of input wave increases.

[19, 20]. In the following, we consider the general case of Eq. (3.13a) and focus our
attention on its chirped Lambert W-kink solutions.
By mean of the CQ-CGL equation (3.13a), we establish in this subsection the con-
ditions under which a uniform wavetrain in the lossy network of Fig. 3.1 is unstable
against small perturbations with infinitesimally small wavenumbers. The MI of this
type is referred to as the baseband MI [21]. First of all, we note that Eq. (3.13a)
admits Stokes’ waves of the form
where ρ0 is a constant real amplitude, and K0 and 0 are adjustable real wavenumber
and frequency, given by
0 = Pr K02 + (Q4r − Q3r ) ρ02 K0 + Q1r + Q2r ρ02 ρ02 + Ri , (3.20a)
for ρ02 . Next, we focus on the situation when the “global existence condition (GEC)”
is satisfied. This avoids the situation when ρ02 → +∞ as K0 → +∞. In the limit
K0 → 0, Eq. (3.20b) leads to
−Q1i ± 2
Q1i + 4Rr Q2i

which imposes the following restrictions called “local existence conditions (LECs)”
2
Q1i + 4Rr Q2i > 0andQ2i −Q1i ± 2
Q1i + 4Rr Q2i > 0. (3.22)
Using the network parameters (3.4), we show in Fig. 3.3d the domain (in term of
frequency ω) in which GEC (3.21) and LECs (3.22) are satisfied simultaneously; in
this figure, we have used the sign “+” in (3.22).

not satisfied. Different plots are produced for network parameters (3.4) with σ1 = 0.461 × 10−2 ,

It is seen from the dispersion relation (3.20a) that plane wave (3.19) is nonlinear,
hence the superposition principle cannot be applied to it. To investigate the MI of
the carrier wave under the GEC (3.21), we consider a small perturbation of the form

K and being the wavenumber and complex frequency of the modulation waves,
respectively. Following Chen et al. [21], we limit our consideration to perturbations
with infinitesimally small K. Substituting Eq. (3.25) in Eq. (3.24) yields the following
dispersion law for the perturbations:

where X and Y are real quantities given in work [17]. Following the discussion carried
out in Ref. [17], one obtains, under GEC (3.21) and LECs (3.22), the following
baseband-MI condition for the Stokes waves (3.19):
where ρ02 is any solution of Eq. (3.20b) with Q2i = 0. Under the MI criterion (3.27),
the wavenumber K of the perturbation in the case when Pi < 0 satisfies the conditions

Relation (3.28) means that Q1i > 0 and Rr Q2i < 0. The propagating frequency f =
fp = ω/2π , as well as dimensionless conductances σ1 and σ2 significantly modify
the instability domain. In fact, different values of either fp or σ1 and σ2 correspond to

different instability diagrams. Each of these three parameters enhances the instability
of the system. This behavior is shown in Fig. 3.4 through the MI growth rate:

when K0 = 0. Figure 3.4a–c show that the MI growth rate increases when each
of fp , σ1 , and σ2 increases. From the plots of Fig. 3.4, we can also conclude that
new ranges of wavenumber K may become available to the MI, causing expansion
of the MI domain. Figure 3.4a confirms the behavior shown in Fig. 3.2a, that is,
the propagating frequency f = fp increases when the dimensionless conductance σ1
increases.

(3.37a)
Under assumptions (3.33)–(3.37a), we arrive to the following second order ordinary
differential equation for ρ
d 2ρ dρ
+ M2 ρ 2 + M0 + N1 ρ + N3 ρ 3 + N5 ρ 5 = 0, (3.38)
dζ2 dζ
Equation (3.38) admits a variety of solutions, such as periodic, kink, and soliton-
like ones. When the network parameters are all fixed, except linear conductance G 1 ,
Eq. (3.37a) establishes relationship g0 (ω, σ1 ) = 0 between frequency fp = ω/2π
and spatial linear parameter χ , g0 (ω, σ1 ) being the function that coincides with the
lhs of Eq. (3.37a) times exp (4χ n), that is,
g0 (ω, σ1 ) = exp (4χ n) (Pr (Q3r + Q4r ) + Pi (Q3i + Q4i ))
× (Pi (Q3r − Q4r ) − Pr (Q3i − Q4i )) + 4 |P|2 (Pr Q2i − Pi Q2r ) .
To prove that equation g0 (ω, σ1 ) = 0 admits real solutions in σ1 , we depict in Fig. 3.5
the dimensionless conductance σ1 versus frequency ω, in an implicit form defined
by g0 (ω, σ1 ) = 0 [any set of values (ω, σ1 ) on the curve of Fig. 3.5 satisfies the
equation (3.37a)]. It is seen from Fig. 3.5 that for given propagating frequency ω,
there exist more than one value of dimensionless conductance σ1 for which the set
(ω, σ1 ) satisfies relationship (3.37a).
To derive chirped kink solitonlike solutions of the CQ-CGL equation (3.13a), we
impose to the first derivative d ρ/d ζ to be a polynomial of the third degree in ρ. The
chirped Lambert W-kink solution of Eq. (3.13a) is expressed via the Lambert W-kink

solitonlike solution of Eq. (3.38). To this end, we seek the solution to Eq. (3.38) in
the form r
ρ(ζ ) = q + , (3.40a)
1 + f [g(ζ )]
where q and r are two real constants, and f and g are two real functions of variable
ζ satisfying relationship
df f0 + f1 (q + r) + (f0 + f1 q) f (ζ )

dg g(ζ ) (1 + f (ζ ))
f0 and f1 being two real parameters. If we differentiate Eq. (3.40a) in respect with ζ
and replace f by f = (r + q − ρ) / (ρ − q), we obtain
dρ 1 1 dg

where f0 and f1 are two real parameters. Asking to the rhs of Eq. (3.40c) to be a
third-degree polynomial in ρ, we find that g −1 d g/d ζ must be a constant and f1 = 0.
Hence, we arrive to g(ζ ) = λ0 exp (μ0 ζ ), where
λ0 is a real constant. Replacing now
g by this expression in Eq. (3.40b) and integrating the resulting equation, we find
that f = f (ζ ) = 0 must be any solution of the algebraic equation

3.1 Chirped Lambert W-Kink Waves Propagation in a Lossy Electrical … 65
Eqs. (3.44)–(3.46), are given by Eqs. (3.44)–(3.46). In general, υgr is positive, while
υgi is negative. This behavior is seen in Fig. 3.6, in which υgr and υgi are plotted
versus the angular frequency ω for different values of dimensionless conductance σ1 .
As we can see from Fig. 3.6a, b, υgr and vgi severally increases and decreases with
the increase of σ1 . The presence of factor exp [−χ n] in Eq. (3.58) indicates that the
dissipative effects, introduced by conductance G 1 in the series branch of the network
of Fig. 3.1, lead to a decay of the amplitude as the Lambert W-kink pulses propagate
in the lattice. Depending on the sign of the parameter λ given by
β0 Pr (Q3r + Q4r ) + Pi (Q3i + Q4i ) 2
λ = υgi Pr + q ,
α0 2
ε
λ
the presence of factor exp t
in Eq. (3.58) shows that dissipative effects intro-
2|P|2
duced by G 1 lead to either decrease (for λ < 0) or increases (when λ > 0) of the
amplitude in the course of the propagation of the Lambert W-kink signals through the
network. Because G 1 accounts for the loss in the network of Fig. 3.1,
λ must be nega-
tive so that the wave amplitude decreases. One then concludes that the self-steepening
term Q3 and self-frequency shift Q4 can be used to modulate the amplitude of the
Lambert W-kink signals propagating in the dissipative network. As a consequence
of the presence of the dissipation, the wave’s phase is a superposition of linear and
nonlinear phases L (n, t) and NL (n, t), given by Eq. (3.59). Equation (3.58) reveals
that the center of the chirped Lambert W-kink pulses moves with a constant speed,
υc = υgr + εβ0 /α0 , which is different from the group velocity. Equation (3.58) also
indicates that the width of the W-kink pulses is 1/ (εα0 μ0 ), and, according to the
expression for μ0 [see Eqs. (3.44)–(3.46)], it is proportional to α0 /β0 . Therefore,
the width of the W-kink pulse remains constant during its propagation. With the
use of network parameters (3.4) with σ1 = 0.766 × 10−2 and σ2 = 1.152 × 10−2 ,
and using (r, q, μ0 ) given by Eq. (3.45), a relevant set of values of the solution
parameters is chosen to depict, in Fig. 3.7, the temporal and spatial (left and right
panels, respectively) profiles of the chirped Lambert W-kink signals, propagating at
frequency fp = 1171.38 kHz. For these data, condition (3.21) is violated, meaning
that the propagating frequency fp = 1174.05 kHz does not belong to the domain of
the baseband MI. It is important to notice that for the signals shown in Fig. 3.7d–f,
the center of the pulse is located (approximately) at n = 800, n = 809, and n = 813,
respectively, meaning that the pulse moves with a positive speed. Thus, Fig. 3.7
demonstrates that the dynamics of the Lambert W-kink signal is different from that
of the well-known kink soliton, cf. Ref. [22].
In conclusion, we have studied analytically in this Section the results for the
baseband MI and the transmission of chirped Lambert W-kink signals through a
lossy electrical network. First, we have derived a generalized CQ CGL equation
with self-steepening and self-frequency shift that governs the dynamics of slowly
modulated waves propagating in our network system. The spatial-decay rate χ is
found in the analytical form, including its dependence on the wave’s frequency. The

derived amplitude equation predicts the linear stability of slowly modulated Stokes’
waves, showing how the dissipative elements of the network affect the baseband
MI of the system. Further, our investigations have revealed that the model under
the consideration supports the propagation of a variety of chirped pulses including
the chirped Lambert W-kink signals. Analytical expressions for the chirped phase,
ϕ(ξ ) − ωk t, and nonlinear frequency change δph (x, t) across the pulse are obtained
as functions of the intensity of the signal, while its amplitude can be modulated by
varying parameters Q3 and Q4 of the self-steepening and self-frequency shifts. The
derived chirped Lambert W-kink solution of the amplitude equation (3.13a) is then
used to investigate analytically the effects of the dissipation on the amplitude of

constant as the wave propagates in the network. Our results show that the effects of
dissipative losses in the series branch of the network are stronger than those resulting
from the dissipative losses in the shunt branch. Results of the present Section can
be useful for exploring the dynamics of Lambert W-kink pulses in other complex
systems, which, in the first approximation, may be modelled by equations of the
CQ-CGL type, including the self-steepening and self-frequency shift.

Because of the non-negativity of z3 (ω, k) for k ∈ [0, π0 ], the linear dissipation param-
eter χ (k, ω(k)) is positive for all k ∈]0 , π0 ]. Therefore, the amplitude of linear
waves defined by Eq. (3.64) is an exponentially decreasing function of the network
cell number n (this is clearly seen if we replace in Eq. (3.64) k by its expression
k = k + iχ ).
In the special case of a lossless network (σ1 = σ2 = 0), the linear dissipation
parameter (3.67) gives χ (ω) = 0, while the linear spectrum (3.66), under the con-
dition that ω(0) = 0, reduces to the well-known dispersion relation of a band-pass

which possesses a gap ω0 = 0 at k = 0 and is also limited by the cut-off angular
frequency ωc = 2u0 sin π20 when k = π0 . Therefore, relation (3.66) establishes the
relation between the wavenumber k and the angular frequency ω in the general case
of dissipative network of Fig. 3.8, and the propagation of plane waves and modulated
waves in our dissipative system will take place in the frequency range of the allowed
band, that is, fp ∈ [f0 , fc [, where f0 = 0 and fc = ωc /(2π ). Throughout this Section,
we use, without loss of generality, the value π0 = π/2 so that the propagating fre-
quency fp = ω/2π will be an increasing function of wavenumber k in [0, π0 ].
As one can see from plots of Fig. 3.9, to different sets of the dimensionless
resistances σ1 and σ2 correspond different linear dispersion curves. It is seen from
Fig. 3.9a, that the linear dispersion curve of the network associated with Eq. (3.66)
can be well approximated by Eq. (3.69) for small enough σ1 and σ2 . We can see
from plots of Fig. 3.9b that the introduction of the series dissipative elements in our
system decreases the propagation frequency fp = ω/2π . Figure 3.9c reveals that the
introduction of the dissipative elements in the shunt branches decreases [increases]
the propagating frequency associating with low [high] wavenumber k.
In order to analyze the contribution of the two resistances in the resulting mag-
nitude of spatial decreasing rate χ , we have displayed, for the network parameters
(3.61) and different values of σ1 and σ2 , χ given by Eq. (3.67) in Fig. 3.10 as a func-
tion of the angular frequency ω. It is seen from different plots of Fig. 3.10 that the
spatial decreasing rate χ is more manifested for frequencies close to f c = ωc /2π and
is an increasing function of the frequency in the operating range f0 , fc = [0, ωc /2π ]
of the network. Therefore, the wave amplitude will decrease more rapidly when the
frequency of input wave increases. When comparing Fig. 3.11a, b, we observe that
the linear dissipative parameter χ associated to σ2 only (Fig. 3.10a) is greater than
that induced by σ1 only (Fig. 3.10b). Hence, the must important contribution to χ
comes from the resistance R2 in the shunt branch of the network and consequently,
this resistance R2 cannot be neglected in the analytical study of wave propagation in
the network under consideration.
Plots of Fig. 3.10 also reveal that for frequencies in
the operating range f0 , fc of the network, the spatial decreasing rate χ is very small
(0 ≤ χ ≤ 0.03) so that its contribution to the linear waves (3.64) can be neglected.
As we will see in the next Section, its presence can be crucial in the derivation of the
model equations governing the dynamics of nonlinear modulated waves propagating
in the dissipative nonlinear electrical network under consideration.
In this subsection, we first derive the amplitude equation that governs the dynamics
of spatiotemporal modulated damped waves propagating in the network system of
Fig. 3.8. Then we investigate the linear stability of plane wave with time-varying
amplitude propagating in our network system.
3.2 Spatiotemporal Modulation of Damped Solitonlike Wave … 73
Now, we focus our attention to modulated damped waves with a slowly varying
envelope in time and space with regard to a given carrier wave with angular fre-
quency ω = ωp = 2π fp and wavenumber k = kp . To derive the amplitude equation,
that is, the nonlinear partial differential equation that governs spatiotemporal mod-
ulated damped waves in the network of Fig. 3.8, we use the results of the preceding

that governs the dynamics of modulated waves propagating in the network of Fig. 3.8.
Substituting Eq. (3.74) into Eq. (3.62) and taking into account conditions (a), (b),
and (c), we obtain the dc term and the second-harmonic terms ψ1 and ψ2 as,

We now turn to the analysis of the uniform wave train propagating along the lossy
nonlinear electrical transmission network under small perturbations. We start by
seeking exact plane wave solutions of the GL equation (3.75) of the form
where 0 is a real number and a0 (τ ) and ϕ0 (τ ) are two real functions of τ . For
equation (3.77) to satisfy the complex GL equation (3.75), a0 (τ ) and ϕ0 (τ ) must

the ansatz of the form

For the phenomenon of the modulational instability to occur, at least one of the fre-
quencies of modulation ± must possess a positive imaginary part [37–39], meaning
that

nentially when τ → +∞, meaning that the system remains unstable under modu-
lation. In the case where Pi 20 − 2Qi a02 < 0, we have Im − < 0 as K → +0, and
the modulational instability will occur only when

Using Eq. (3.75) with a nonzero right-hand side as the basic model, Lange and
Newell [40] studied the modulational instability of harmonic waves by means of
the cumulative momentum method. They showed that plane waves with constant
amplitude are unstable (stable) under modulation for
Pr Qr + Pi Qi > 0
is known as the Lange and Newell’s criterion of the MI [40]. When examining the
MI of slowly modulated waves in physical systems described by a higher-order
GL equation, Pelap and Faye [41] generalized the Lange and Newell’s criterion
with a corrective term which depends on the characteristic parameters of the carrier
wave. The condition (3.86) of the MI of Stokes waves with time-varying amplitude
thus differs from the Lange and Newell’s criterion for plane waves with constant
amplitude. It is important to note that MI criterion (3.86) is in agreement with the
Benjamin–Feir criterion for Stokes waves of NLS equation [42–45].
With the use of the network parameters given in Eq. (3.61), we display in Fig. 3.11
the behavior of coefficients P and Q through their real and imaginary parts, as well as
products Pr Qr and Pi Qi as functions of angular frequency ω. For generating different
plots, we use the dimensionless resistances σ1 = 25 × 10−4 and σ2 = 5 × 10−3 that
correspond respectively to R1 = 5 and R2 = 10 (values close to the numerical
one [24]). As it is seen from Fig. 3.12a, b and d, Pr , Pi , and Qi change their sign
in the whole frequency range of the allowed band; as we can see from Fig. 3.11c,
the real part Qr of the nonlinear coefficient Q is always negative for the network
parameter (3.61). It is also seen from Fig. 3.11f that product Pi Qi changes its sign
when ω varying in the segment [0, ωc ]. Plots (b), (d), and (f3 ) reveal that different
scenarios described after Eqs. (3.76a) and (3.76b) occur for the network parameters
(3.61) and the dimensionless parameters σ1 = 25 × 10−4 and σ2 = 5 × 10−3 . Espe-
cially, in some given range of angular frequency, Pi is negative while Qi is positive,
as it is clearly seen from Fig. 3.11 (f3 ); this means that in such a region of vari-
ation of the angular frequency ω, Pi and Qi designate respectively the dispersion
dissipation coefficient and the nonlinear dissipation coefficient. Also, it is seen from
Fig. 3.11 (f3 ) that the situation where either Pi > 0 or Qi > 0, the resistances act
as if the driven field Pi and Qi are taken separately. The situations where Pi < 0
and Qi < 0 and Pi > 0 and Qi > 0 can be also observed in Fig. 3.11 (f3 ); in the
corresponding frequency range, the effect of resistances in the dynamics of modu-
lated waves depends on the balance between the two coefficients. Lastly, Fig. 3.11e
reveals that equation Pr Qr = 0 admits only one solution, ωnull = 156106.5, which
corresponds to the propagating frequency fnull = 24. 85 kHz. According to condition
(3.86) of the modulational instability, Fig. 3.11e establishes the existence of two
regions concerning the MI of plane wave with time-varying amplitude and possi-
ble soliton solutions of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (3.75): (i) Region

associating with fp ∈ [0, fnull [ for which Pr > 0 and Qr < 0, leading to Pr Qr < 0
and corresponding the modulational stability and hole soliton, and (ii) region for
fp ∈ [fnull , fc [ for which Pr < 0 and Qr < 0, leading to Pr Qr > 0 and corresponding
to the modulational instability and envelope soliton.
Because Pr , Pi , Qr , and Qi depend on the dissipative elements R1 and R2 , the
instability growth rate (3.87) and the domain of the variability of the wavenumber
K of the modulation depend on R1 and R2 . To show how R1 and R2 affect the MI
growth rate , we have depicted in Fig. 3.12 the MI growth rate according to Eq. (3.87)
for the carrier wave with parameters (3.79c) for a00 = 1 and for different values of
resistances R1 and R2 . Figure 3.12a shows the MI gain when only R2 varies, while
Fig. 3.12(b) shows the MI growth rate when only R1 varies. It is seen from these
plots that the dissipative elements R1 and R2 enhance the instability region. For the
wavenumber of modulation K near zero (small K = 0), the MI growth rate decreases
[increases] when R2 increases [R1 increases], while for wavenumber of modulation K
near Kmax , the MI growth rate increases [decreases] when R2 increases [R1 increases];
this situation is well seen in Fig. 3.12c. Also, we can see from Fig. 3.12 that Kmax
increases with R2 as we can seen from plots (a), while increasing R1 decreases
the value of Kmax , as we can well observe from plots (b). By comparing plots of
Fig. 3.12a obtained with a fixed value of R1 and those of Fig. 3.12b obtained with
a fixed value of R2 , it appears that the values of the growth rate of the MI showed
in Fig. 3.13a is higher that those showed in Fig. 3.12b. This means that the must
important contribution to the MI gain comes from the resistance R2 in the shunt
branch of the network. In conclusion, the effects of dissipative losses in shunt branch
are more manifested than those resulting from the dissipative losses in the series
branch.
Remark It is important to notice that in the case of damping modulated plane waves,
the amplitude of the propagating wave may decrease rapidly to zero and the waves
vanish after few cells. In such situations, the phenomena of the MI would not be
experimentally observed if the processing of instability takes place after many cells.
Consequently, it should not be experimentally possible to predict the domain in which
the electrical network may support the propagation of envelope solitons.

where 3 and 4 are real parameters. The solution parameters 1 > 0 and 2 , as we
will see in the following, play an important role in the management of spatiotemporal
envelope signals propagating through the network of Fig. 3.8. The positivity of N in
Eq. (3.89b) follows from that of product Pr Qr . It is important to notice that the exact
solitonlike solution (3.89a) with parameters (3.89b)–(3.89d) is valid only when P
and Q satisfy the additional condition Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0; for Qi = 0, condition (3.86)
of the MI under the condition Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0 becomes Pi Qi > 0.
In the practice, condition Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0 can be used as follows: For the given
network parameters (3.61) and, let us say, for a given dimensionless resistance σ1 , one
can use equation Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0 to express σ2 in terms of the angular frequency
ω (here, taking into account the fact the most contribution to the spatial decreasing
rate comes from R2 , we have preferred to solve Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0 in σ2 ); in other
words, for a given propagating frequency fp = ω/2π , one can find the appropriate
dimensionless resistance σ2 = σ2 (ω) that leads to Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0. If condition
Pi Qi > 0 is satisfied for such σ2 (ω), then Eq. (3.89a) with parameters (3.89b)–(3.89d)
will give an envelope solitonlike solution of the complex GL equation (3.75) for the
given network parameters (3.61) with dimensionless resistances σ1 and σ2 = σ2 (ω).
For a better understanding, we show in Fig. 3.13a the plot of the dimensionless
resistance σ2 versus the angular frequency ω as an implicit function derived from the
equation Pr Qi − Pi Qr = 0 for the network parameters (3.61) and the dimensionless
resistance σ1 = 25 × 10−4 (this value of σ1 corresponds to the numerical value R1 =
5 [24]). As we can see from Fig. 3.13b, product Pi Qi is positive for σ2 around the
numerical value σ2 = 5 × 10−3 . It is seen from Fig. 3.13a that the numerical value
σ2 = 5 × 10−3 corresponds to the propagating frequency fp = 10.135 MHz.
Now, if we insert Eq. (3.89a) in the decomposition (3.74) and ignore the dc term
ψ1 and the second harmonics term ψ2 , we will obtain that the shape of the network
soliton signal can be well approximated by the shape of the first harmonic whose
expression is given as

In general, the real part υgr of group velocity υg is a nonnegative quantity, while
its imaginary part υgi can take any sign, negative, null, or positive. For a better
understanding, we depict in Fig. 3.14 the variation of υgr and υgi versus the angular
frequency ω for the network parameters (3.61); here, we use the dimensionless resis-
tances σ1 = 25 × 10−4 and σ2 = 5 × 10−3 corresponding respectively to R1 = 5
and R2 = 10 (values close to the numerical one [24]). As we can see from dif-
ferent plots of Fig. 3.14, υgr is nonnegative (Fig. 3.14a) and υgi changes its sign
(Fig. 3.14b).
From Eq. (3.90a),
we can see that the wave amplitude is proportional to exp
ε2 υgi t − χ n so that if the free parameter 2 is taken from the condition 2 υgi < 0,
the envelope soliton signal associated with Eq. (3.90a) will be damped in both time
and space. That is, the signal amplitude will decrease in both the time t and the cell
number n (since χ is a positive quantity). The expression of z1 (n, t) given in Eq.
(3.91) reveals that the soliton width is ωdth = 1/ε1 , while its speed is defined as
υsol = υgr + ε Pi 1 − −1
1 2 + 2Pr 2
2
and coincides with the group velocity if the free parameters 1 and 2 are chosen
from the condition (Pr ± |P|) 1 − Pi 2 = 0. Therefore, the situation when 1 and 2
satisfy the relationship (Pr ± |P|) 1 − Pi 2 = 0 corresponds to the case where the
electrical network is excited by a soliton signal with initial velocity corresponding to
3.2 Spatiotemporal Modulation of Damped Solitonlike Wave … 85
the group velocity υgr of the wave packet. The centre of the envelope soliton in such
a situation will move with the constant speed υsol = υgr , while its amplitude will
vary proportionally to exp 2 ευgi t − χ n . If 1 and 2 are taken from the condition
(Pr ± |P|) 1 − Pi 2 = 0, we obtain a situation in which our network system is
excited by a bright soliton with a speed υsol different from the group velocity υgr
of the wave packet, and its amplitude varies proportionally to exp 2 ευgi t − χ n .
It should be to noticed that in the case when N = 1, both 1 and 2 can be used to
control the wave amplitude in the propagating regime where υgi = 0. It follows from
the expression ωdth = 1/ε1 of the wave width, that parameter 1 can also be used to
manage the soliton width. Hence, the two solution parameters 1 and 2 can be used
to manage the spatiotemporal bright soliton signals propagating through the network
of Fig. 3.8.
In the following, we assume that P and Q satisfy the condition of the MI (3.86) and
intend to find the approximative bright solitonlike solution of Eq. (3.75). For this
aim, we consider the ansatz
where A and λ are two real constants, and (τ ), ρ(ξ ), (τ ), and B(τ ) are real
functions to be determined. Inserting Eq. (3.92) into Eq. (3.75) and setting the real
and imaginary parts of the resulting equation equal to zero yield the differential
system of two equations in ρ, , B, , and :

with respect to ξ from ξ = −∞ to ξ = +∞, we arrive to

It is important to note that Eqs. (3.102) and (3.103a) are solutions in the averaged
sense. They can be obtained with the help of the adiabatic perturbation theory devel-
oped for bright solitons [46, 47]. It is seen from Eqs. (3.102) and (3.103a) that the
soliton amplitude decays in time τ as the wave progresses.
In the special case when λ = 0, solution (3.102) corresponds to the situation where
the electrical network is excited by a soliton signal with initial velocity corresponding
to the group velocity υgr of the wave packet. The centre of the envelope soliton in such
a situation moves with the speed dx/d τ = 0, and this means that the soliton speed
remains constant while its amplitude as (τ ) varies according to the second equation in
Eq. (3.102). Therefore, the network electrical bright soliton propagates in the lossy
network of Fig. 3.8 with a constant speed which coincides with the group velocity
of the carrier wave. In the situation when λ = 0, the initial amplitude as (τ ) = 0 and
speed υs = 2Pr λ = 0 of the bright soliton satisfy the relationship

and solution (3.102) in this case λ = 0 corresponds to the situation when the network
under consideration is excited by an envelope solitons with a velocity υs different to
the group velocity of the wave packet.
To use the above approximate soliton solution for the transmission of bright soli-
tonlike signal through our network system, we proceed as in the case of the exact
soliton solution of the amplitude equation. We use the decomposition (3.74) of the
network voltage Vn (t) and the approximative envelope solitonlike solutions of Eq.
(3.75), and return back to dimensioned parameters variables. We then obtain, after
ignoring the dc and the second harmonics, that the shape of the network envelope
soliton signal can be well approximated by the shape of the first harmonic whose
expression is given by either

MHz through our network system. From plots of Fig. 3.15, we can see that the
soliton amplitude decays as either the cell number increases [column (a)] or the time
t increases [column (b)]. Also, plots of Fig. 3.15 reveal that the centre of the bright
soliton moves with both the cell number n [column (a)] and time t [column

Fig. 3.15c and 8d show how the exponential factor exp 2 ευgi t − χ n of the wave

Our second example is generated with the shape of the first harmonic (3.104)
and (3.106) associated with the approximative envelope solitonlike solutions of the
complex GL equation (3.75). This example demonstrates how the solution parameter
λ affects the transmission of the spatiotemporal damped envelope soliton signals
propagating through the lossy network of Fig. 3.8. In order to examine the effects
parameter λ on the soliton signals, we have depicted in Fig. 3.16 the evolution plots
92 3 Transmission of Dissipative Solitonlike Signals …
of damped bright soliton signals for three values of λ. The data used in Fig. 3.16 lead
to a positive υgi so that λυgi > 0 for positive λ and λυgi < 0 for negative λ. From
plots of Fig. 3.16, we conclude that
1. in the situation where the electrical network is excited by a soliton with initial
velocity corresponding to the group velocity υg = υgr of the wave packet (that
is, λ = 0), the soliton amplitude is higher than in the general situation where
the electrical network is excited by the envelope solitons with initial velocity
different to the group velocity of the wave packet (that is, λ = 0);
2. the soliton amplitude for λ > 0 is higher than that for λ < 0 (this is well seen
when comparing plots of the left column with those of the right column, espe-
cially for large time);
in the series branch. Also, our study has showed that the solution parameters 1 and
2 or λ can be used to manage the soliton amplitude and speed.

Now, we turn our attention to the coherent structures in our network system. Through-
out this subsection, ω and k are not the same angular frequency and wavenumber
used in the derivation of the amplitude equation; they have the same meaning as
ω0 and k0 used in the Stokes-wave solution of the amplitude equation. The tempo-
ral evolution of coherent structures in the modified/generalized CQ-CGL equation
amounts to the uniform propagation with velocity υ and overall phase oscillations
with frequency ω :
This ansatz covers all possible traveling wave solutions. The substitution of Eq.
(3.130) in the modified/generalized CQ-CGL equation (3.115) gives rise to an ordi-
nary differential system for a and :

It is clear that system (3.135a)–(3.135b) does not depend on Qi , Qr , Q1r , Q1i , Q2r ,
Q2i , Q3r , Q3i . Following the results of Ref. [54], we can easily show that system
(3.135a)–(3.135b) characterizes the behavior of solutions of the singularized system
(a, q, y) system at a → 0.
In the following, system (3.134a)–(3.134c) is addressed in the case when

to a number of critical points, (0, 0, 0) being one of them, which corresponds to the
zero amplitude, a = 0. If the coefficients of the amplitude equation (3.115) satisfy
the conditions
then
± (Pr Qi − Pi Qr ) / (Pi Q3r − Pr Q3i ), 0, 0
are also critical points of system (3.134a)–(3.134c) under conditions (3.136). Using
the linearization in the (a, x, y) space, the stability of the fixed point (0, 0, 0) is
addressed here. In similar way, we can address the stability of the other critical
points.
The result is that point (0, 0, 0) has a two-dimensional unstable manifold when
Pi (2υ + Pr ) ≥ 0, and a one-dimensional one, when Pi (2υ + Pr ) < 0. The respec-
tive linearized system has real eigenvalues for υ ∈ [υmin , υmax ] , and complex eigen-
values when υ ∈ / [υmin , υmax ] , where

The results are summarized by means of phase portraits shown in Fig. 3.19 for
Pi (2υ + Pr ) ≥ 0, and in Fig. 3.20, when Pi (2υ + Pr ) < 0, for the critical-line
parameters Lp . For Pi (2υ + Pr ) ≥ 0, we depict |v11 (x, t)| = |a(z)|, with z =
x − υt in Fig. 3.21 for Pi (2υ + Pr ) ≥ 0, and in Fig. 3.22 for Pi (2υ + Pr ) < 0.
To analyze the propagation of the wave, we here take = 10−2 . As initial condi-
tions, we use (a0 , x0 , y0 ) = (a(0), x(0), y(0)) = (0.01, 0.001, −0.001). We can see
from panels (b1 ), (b5 ) and (b7 ) of Fig. 3.21 that waves are absorbed somewhere to
the left of z = 0 (and to the right in that of Fig. 3.22). It is also seen from panels Fig.
3.21 (b2 ) , (b3 ) , (b6 ) and (b8 ) that waves are emitted from somewhere to the left of
z = 0. The wave shown in panel (b4 ) of Fig. 3.21 has a uniform profile.
In conclusion, modulated wavetrains in the discrete nonlinear-dispersive dissipa-
tive transmission network sketched in Fig. 3.17 have been addressed in this Section.
With the use of the semi-discrete approximation and the reductive perturbation
method, it is proven that the evolution of nonlinear excitations in the network is
governed by the modified/generalized CQ CGL equation with the cubic derivative
terms. The MI analysis of the Stokes waves is included, along with the MI criterion.
Also, a real-valued system of ordinary differential equations was derived to describe
coherent structures of the amplitude equation.

Emission of Rogue Wave Signals
in Nonlinear Electrical Transmission
Networks
4.1.1 Introduction
Firstly observed in the ocean [1–3], rogue waves (alias killer, giant, or extreme storm
waves) are waves that are about twice or thrice higher than expected for the ocean
state. Rogue waves can appear out of nowhere [4]. Mathematically, rogue waves
are rational polynomial solutions of a class of NPDEs such as equations of NLS
type [4–8]. In the physical context, rogue waves are located both in space and time,
propagate on a nonzero continuous wave background, and concentrate the energy of
the CW background into a small region [3, 6, 9–17]. As physical and mathematical
phenomena, rogue waves occur in many fields of nonlinear science including optical
fibers [18], super fluids [19], quantum mechanics [20], BECs [21], NLTNs [22],
atmospherics [23], plasmas [24], etc.

110 4 Emission of Rogue Wave Signals in Nonlinear Electrical Transmission Networks
The present Section deals with the propagation of RWs in the modified Noguchi
electrical NLTN depicted in Fig. 2.1. These RWs are produced as solutions of a
NLS equation with an additional time-varying linear-potential term [25]. The RWs
propagate at bandwidth frequencies at which the network may exhibit baseband MI.
Effects of network parameters on characteristics of the RW parameters are consid-
ered. We shown how to use parameters and the propagation frequency to maintain
or suppress the RWs in a network such as that of Fig. 2.1.
The physical model to be studied in this Section is the 1D modified Noguchi electrical
NLTN shown in Fig. 2.1 made of N identical cells. Assuming the capacitance-voltage
(C − V ) characteristics to be of the form
d Qn
C (Vb + Vn ) = C0 1 − 2αVn + 3βVn2 , (4.1)
d Vn
we employ the Kirchhoff’s laws and obtain the following network system
d2
2
Vn + λ (2Vn − Vn+1 − Vn−1 ) − αVn2 + βVn3
dt
+ ω02 Vn + u 20 (2Vn − Vn+1 − Vn−1 ) = 0, (4.2)
and the angular frequency ω is related to the wavenumber k through the following
linear dispersion relation
ω2 1 + 4λ sin2 (k/2) − ω02 + 4u 20 sin2 (k/2) = 0. (4.4)
Following Marquié et al. [27], we seek the solution of system (4.2) in the general
form [27, 28]
Vn (t) = εψ(x, τ ) exp (iθ ) + ε2 ψ10 (x, τ ) + ψ20 (x, τ ) exp (2iθ ) + c.c., (4.5)
where θ = (kn − ωt) is the rapidly varying phase, ψ(x, τ ), ψ10 (x, τ ), and ψ20 (x, τ )
are respectively the fundamental, dc and second-harmonic terms. During the numer-
ical computations, the wavenumber k will be taken from the first Brilloum zone
(0 ≤ k ≤ π ). In the following, we assume the group velocity (4.3) to be nonnegative
in the first Brilloum zone, which is possible only when the dispersive parameter λ
satisfies the following restriction [29]:
L2 L2
0≤λ< , i.e., 0 ≤ C S < C0 . (4.6)
L1 L1
2αωυg2
ψ10 (x, τ ) = |ψ|2 + χ0 (τ )x, (4.7a)

∂ψ ∂ 2ψ
i + P 2 + Q |ψ|2 ψ + χ xψ = 0, (4.8)
∂τ ∂x
In the special case when χ = 0, Eq. (4.8) coincides with the standard NLS equation.
When χ = 0, it turns to a NLS equation with a linear density profile (alias the GP
equation in the BEC context). It is important to note that Eq. (4.8) can be reduced
to the standard NLS equation [31] by means of transformations [30]
ψ (x, τ ) ≡ ψ̃ (x̃, τ ) exp i(τ )x − i P dτ 2 (τ ) , (4.10)
and
x̃ ≡ x − 2P dτ (τ ), (τ ) ≡ λ(τ )dτ. (4.11)
The NLS equation (4.8) admits the following plane wave solution
⎡ 2 ⎤
T
1 1 x + σx
ψ(x, τ ) = √ ψ0 exp ⎣−i (y)dy + i ⎦, (4.12)
0 (τ + τ0 ) 4P τ + τ0
T0
where
1 P dσ 20 2 ψ02 Q
T =− , (T ) =
= 4P (τ + τ0 ) χ (τ ), σ + ;
2 (τ + t ) dτ 0 T
0 0 16P 2
where δψ is a small perturbation. Using the linear stability analysis and denoting
by respectively K and the modulation wavenumber and the complex modulation
angular, we arrive to the following time-dependent dispersion relation:
2
2 σ K 2Q ψ02
(T ) − 0 − K 2 40 K 2 − (τ + τ0 ) = 0. (4.14)

It is important to note that the CW solution (4.12) will be stable under modulation as
soon as P Q < 0. Although parameter χ (τ ) of the linear potential does not affect the
MI criterion, it affects implicitly the local MI growth rate. Indeed, the dependence
of the growth rate (4.16) on “time” τ is a consequence of the presence of χ (τ ) in the
amplitude equation (4.8) of the network.
Employing the network parameters [30]
we display, respectively, in Fig. 4.1a–c linear dispersion curves showing the propagat-
ing frequency f = ω/ (2π ), the dispersion coefficient P, the nonlinearity coefficient
Q, and the product P Q versus the wavenumber k.
Figure 4.1a shows four different regions concerning the MI and possible soliton
solutions (regions of positive P Q correspond to envelope solitons, while region of
negative P Q lead to hole solitons):
We now turn to the construction of RWs in the lossless network of Fig. 2.1. For this
purpose, we first need to find rogue wave solutions of the amplitude equation (4.8).

In the following, we employ the above first- and second-order rational polyno-
mial solutions of the amplitude equation (4.8) to investigate the dynamics of first-
and second-order modulated rogue waves propagating along the network system of
Fig. 2.1. Such investigation is carried out via typical physical example, based on the
form of the magnitude χ (τ ) of the linear potential term of the amplitude equation
(4.8).
The case of constant χ (τ ) (time-independent linear density profile) As the first
example, we consider the time-independent linear density profile and set χ (τ ) = χ =
constant. Solving then Eqs. (4.19) and (4.23d) yields

The case of the temporal periodic modulation of the linear density profile Our
second example corresponds to a temporal periodic modulation of the linear potential
whose magnitude is taken as
χ (τ ) = (2P)−1 2 + 452 cos (τ ) ,
with the constant frequency . From Eqs. (4.19) and (4.23d), we obtain for this
example that
plots of Fig. 4.3 show RWs moving along an oscillating trajectory. Also, plots of
Fig. 4.3 reveal that the first-order [second-order] RW features only one extremum
[two extrema].
The case of an exponentially decaying/growing linear density profile Our last
example is obtained when the strength of the linear-potential undergoes a temporal
modulation, that is, χ (τ ) = χ0 exp (χ1 τ ), χ0 and χ1 being nonzero constants. In this
special case, we obtain from Eqs. (4.19) and (4.23d) that

the first-order rogue wave is reduced to a dark-bright-dark soliton. Plots of Fig. 4.5
show a second-order RW with four peaks. Plots of Figs. 4.4 and 4.5 also show how
much the solution parameters χ0 and χ1 affect the evolution of the modulated RWs
propagating through the network of Fig. 2.1. Although these two parameters have
no effect on the wave shape, they affect the wave behavior. Plots of Figs. 4.4 and 4.5
reveal that modulated RWs of nonlinear electric transmission networks may either
take birth from dark [bright] solitonlike waves and “disappear without a trace”, or
“appear from nowhere” and disappear as dark [bright] solitonlike waves [4].
Based on the exact rational polynomial solutions (4.21) and (4.22) of the amplitude
equation (4.8), we turn to the emission of RW signals through the network of Fig. 2.1.
For this purpose, it is convenient to go back to the original variables n and t and use
expansion (4.5):

(4.24)
where x = ε(n − υg t), τ = ε2 t, and ψ(x, τ ) = ψ1,2 (ξ(x, τ ), τ ). For the simplicity,
we focus ourselves to the case when the linear potential is absent in Eq. (4.8), that
is, χ (t) = 0; in this case, we take β0 = 0, γ0 = 0, and X 1 = 0 so that ξ = x. In the
following, we aim to address effects of various parameters such as the wavenumber
k, the linear dispersive element C S , the linear capacitance C0 , as well as the linear
inductances L 1 and L 2 on the evolution of first- and second-order modulated RWs
propagating along our network system. For the computational purpose, we use the
numerical value of ε = 10−3 .
To study the effect of the wavenumber k on the modulated RWs propagating along our
network system, we show, for different values of the wavenumber k, the waveform
at time t = 0 of the first- and second-order RWs in Fig. 4.6. It is seen from different
plots of Fig. 4.6 that the amplitudes and the widths of both the RW and its background
decreases with the increase in the values of the wavenumber k. Since the propagating

Using now the exact rational polynomial solutions (4.21) and (4.22) of the ampli-
tude equation (4.8), we can experience the emission electrical modulated RWs in
the network of Fig. 2.1. The typical spatial and temporal evolution of the first- and
second-order modulated RWs are showed in respectively Figs. 4.11 and 4.12. Plots

Therefore, studying the effect of β0 (τ ) on the motion of the modulated RWs through
the network of Fig. 2.1 is tantamount to studying the effect of parameter χ (t) on
the RWs. On the basis of Figs. 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11 and 4.12, which pertain
to different values of k, can be interpreted as the effect of the carrier phase on the
modulated RWs propagating along our the network system. To investigate the effect
of the carrier phase originating from parameter χ (t) only, one may vary χ , keeping
all the network parameters and wavenumber k constant.
The present Section deals with the transmission of non-autonomous rogue waves
along the network system with dispersive elements illustrated in Fig. 2.1. Here, we
use the same capacitance-voltage dependence (4.1) as in the previous Section. We
show that the amplitude equation is reduced to a cubic-quintic NLS equation with
cubic derivative terms. One-parameter first-order rational polynomial solutions of
4.2 Generation of Network Modulated Rogue Waves Under … 125
this equation are presented and used to investigate analytically the generation of first-
order non-autonomous modulated RWs propagating in the network system of Fig. 2.1.
We study the effects of the quintic nonlinearity and nonlinear-dispersion parameters
on the first-order non-autonomous modulated RWs during their transmission through
our network system.
Applying the Kirchhoff’s laws to the network in Fig. 2.1 yields the system of non-
linear discrete equations (4.2). Asking to the linear waves propagating along the
network of Fig. 2.1 to be proportional to the expression exp [i (kn − ωt)] yields the
linear dispersion relation (4.4) of a typical passband filter. In the following, we use
the following network parameter for the computational purpose [22, 25]:
is the group velocity, and the frequency ω is related to the wavenumber k via the
following linear dispersion relation

Next, we employ the first-order rational polynomial solution (4.37) to evaluate the

with

Since
lim ψ(ξ, τ ) = r0 ,
|ξ |2 +|τ |2 →∞
we conclude that the one-parameter Peregrine soliton solution (4.37) of the KE equa-
tion (4.30e) has the form of a single-peak structure that merges into the plane wave
at |ξ | + |τ | → +∞. It is evident that various parameters such as the quintic non-
linearity and nonlinear-dispersion parameter β0 , solution parameter r0 , the carrier
wavenumber k, coefficients P and Q of the amplitude equation (4.30e), as well as
on the network parameters impact the transmission of first-order modulated wave
through the network system of Fig. 2.1. These parameters determine the wave char-
acteristics. As well as we know, the ideal initial perturbation that corresponds to
the exact Peregrine soliton solution of the amplitude equation will evolve into a
modulated RWs [43, 44].
It follows from solution (4.37) that the maximal value of the wave intensity is
reached at τ = 0 :
|ψ(ξ, τ )|max = |ψ(ξ, 0)|max = 3 |r0 | .
This means that the wave amplitude and that of its CW background increase with
the increase as |r0 | increases; moreover, |ψ(ξ, τ )|max is independent of the network
system’s parameters.
Effects of parameter r0 and β0 on the Peregrine solitons propagating through the
lossless network Now, we use the exact rational polynomial solution (4.37) to study
the effects of parameters r0 and β0 on the first-order modulated rogue waves propa-
gating along the network system of Fig. 2.1, we have displayed in respectively Figs.
4.13 and 4.14 intensity |ψ| for different values of respectively r0 and β0 . Smoothly
increasing the numerical values of r0 from an optimal value, we can visualize, as
shown plots of Fig. 4.13, the formation of crests and troughs with an increase in
the amplitude wave, large amplitude wave corresponding to large values of r0 . Plots
of Fig. 4.14 reveal that the sign and the magnitude of parameter β0 as well as the
wavenumber k affect the wave speed and have no effect on the wave amplitude. Plots

of Fig. 4.14 also reveal that the carrier wavenumber k has no effect on the wave
shape during the wave propagation through our network system; however, the wave
shape may be affected by the variation of parameter β0 . This fact is clearly seen
from plots of Figs. 4.15 and 4.16 showing the wave evolution for different values
of parameter β0 . When β0 is taken around some critical value β0c , the shape of the
RW remains unchange during the wave propagation, as one can see from plots of
Fig. 4.15. It is seen from plots of Fig. 4.16 that when parameter β0 increases from
some critical value β0c of parameter β0 (the same results are obtained for β0 < β0c ),
Peregrine solitons get more delocalized in space. Therefore, parameter β0 can be
used to control the Peregrine solitons of the network of Fig. 2.1.
Effects of the dispersive element C S on the Peregrine solitons To show the effects
of the network parameter C S on the network Peregrine solitons, we depict in Figs.
4.17 and 4.18 the evolution of Peregrine solitons for different values of the dimen-
sionless dispersive parameter λ = C S /C0 and respectively k = 0.3 and k = 0.9. We
can clearly see from plots of Figs. 4.17 and 4.18 how much the dispersive element
C S through parameter λ affects both the wave’s speed and the localization of its
main peak. Also, plots of Figs. 4.17 and 4.18 show that, depending on the value of
the carrier wavenumber k, the wave speed increases [decreases] and the Peregrine

Fig. 4.17 [Fig. 4.18]. For better understanding, we display in Fig. 4.19 the amplitude
profile |ψ(ξ, τ )| at time τ = 0 for two values of the carrier wavenumber and different
values of parameter λ.
Effects of nonlinear parameters α and β and wavenumber k on the Peregrine
solitons For different values of α, β, and k, we depict respectively in Figs. 4.20, 4.21,
and 4.22 the magnitude of amplitude profile |ψ(ξ, 0)| at time τ = 0 for different
values of respectively α, β, and k. It follows from plots of Figs. 4.20, 4.21, and 4.22
that the wave speed decreases [increases] and the Peregrine soliton gets less√[more]
localized with the increase of each α, β and k taken from the region where P/2Q
is an increasing [a decreasing] function of the corresponding α, β and k. Comparing
plots of Fig. 4.19 to those of Figs. 4.20, 4.21, and 4.22, we conclude that parameter
λ and parameters α, β, and k produce opposite effects, while parameters α, β, and k
have the same effect on the Peregrine solitons. Therefore, these four parameters are
useful for controlling the motion of Peregrine solitons along the electrical network
of Fig. 2.1.

see from plots of Fig. 4.25 showing the phase profile at time τ = 0 for different values
of λ, α, or β. It follows from different plots of Figs. 4.24 and 4.25 that parameter λ

two nonlinear coefficients which are assumed to be positive. Applying Kirchhoff’s

Next, our attention is focused to wave packet centered around (ω, k) for the angular
frequency ω = ω p = 2π f p and wavenumber k = k p . To derive the amplitude equa-
tion that governs the slowly modulated waves propagating along our network system,
we follow Taniuti and Yajima [49] and employ the reductive perturbation method in
the semidiscrete
limit. For this aim, we introduce the following two slow variables,
x = ε n − υg t and τ = ε2 t, where the small ε 1 measures the smallness of the
modulation frequency and the amplitude of the input waves, and υg = dω/dk is the
group velocity of the wave packet. Then, we seek the solution Vn (t) of Eq. (4.39) in
the general form [49]

cubic-quintic NLS equation with cubic derivative terms that can be used to various
context of nonlinear phenomena [47, 50–59] . Its coefficients have different mean-
ings, depending on the physical context of its use. In the context of fiber optics
for example, the u(x, τ ) designates the complex envelope of an optical pulse, vari-
ables τ and x are respectively the distance and retarded time, P, Q 1 , and Q 2 are
respectively the GVD, the Kerr nonlinearity, and the quintic nonlinearity, γ1 and μ1
account respectively for the pulse self-steepening effect and the self-frequency shift
coefficient.
For the numerical computation purpose, we will use the following network param-
eters
and choose the linear dispersive element C S from the condition λ < LL 21 , so that the
group velocity υg remains nonnegative in the first Brilloum zone 0 <= k <= π . .
It is important to note that for a given set of the network parameters, parameter
P of the GVD as well as parameter Q of the cubic nonlinearity, as we can see from
plots of Fig. 4.26 showing the evolution of the propagating frequency f p , the GVD
parameter P and the kerr nonlinearity Q 1 versus k, may take, depending on the
value of the carrier wavenumber k, any sign. Plots of Fig. 4.26 show how much the
dispersive element of the network of Fig. 1.1 may affect the propagating frequency as
well as parameters P and Q 1 . For example, the propagating frequency [parameters
P and Q 1 ] decreases [increase] with the increase in the parameter λ = C S /C0 .
4.3 Chirped Super Rogue Waves Propagating … 145
The main purpose of this subsection is to show that the network system of Fig. 2.1 may
support the propagation of chirped SRWs. For this aim, it is sufficient to show that the
amplitude equation (4.42) admits chirped super rogue wave solutions, that is, higher-
order (HO) rational polynomial solutions of nonlinear chirping. In the following, we
limit our study to the special case of positive GVD P(k) and present such HO rational
solutions. For such parameter P(k) of the GVD, the Kerr nonlinearity Q 1 is positive,
as we can see from Fig. 2.26ac.
where ψ and ϑ are respectively the new order parameter and the phase-imprint,
α0 , α1 , and α2 the “phase-imprint parameters”. Transformation (4.50a)–(4.50b) then
reduces the amplitude equation (4.42) to the following form:

which contains only three parameters, namely, the Kerr nonlinearity Q 1 and two free
real parameters γ and μ. Equation (4.53) contains a number of known integrable
equations that admit HO rational polynomial solutions with nonlinear chirping such
as the Kundu–Eckhaus (KE) equation (γ = 0) [60], the Kaup–Newell type NLS
(KN–NLS) equation (μ = 2γ ) [61], the Gerdjikov–Ivanov (GI) equation (μ = 0)
[62], the Chen–Lee–Liu type NLS (CLL–NLS) equation (μ = γ = 0) [63], as well as
the standard NLS equation (μ = γ = 0). In this last section of this chapter, we apply
for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, HO rational polynomial solutions of
Eq. (4.53) to engineer chirped super rogue waves in nonlinear transmission networks.

Its baseband MI can be studies by introducing the following perturbation,
where δa0 (ξ, τ ) is a small complex perturbation. Following the idea developed in
Ref. [64], we obtain the following criterion of the baseband MI of the CW (4.54):
γ
Q 1 > 0 and k0 + a02 (μ − γ ) < 1. (4.55)
Q1
Hence, Eq. (4.55) gives the parameter conditions under which equation (4.53) admits
rational polynomial solutions.
Now, we turn to the dynamics of chirped super rogue waves propagating along the
network system of Fig. 2.1. For any a0 and k0 for which conditions (4.55) of the
4.3 Chirped Super Rogue Waves Propagating … 147
baseband MI are satisfied, we can use the CW solution (4.54) as the seed solution.
Following then Chen et al. [47], we obtain the following first-order and second-order
rational polynomial solutions ψ [I ] (ξ, τ ) and ψ [I I ] (ξ, τ ) of Eq. (4.53):

can observe from plots of Figs. 4.28 and 4.29, the nonlinear dispersion parameter
μ produces an important skew angle relative to the ridge of the rogue wave in the
clockwise direction as μ increases.
Effects of the dispersive element C S on the evolution of chirped SRWs Via the
dispersive parameter λ = C S /C0 , we here study the effects of the dispersive element
C S of the network on the dynamics of modulated chirped SRWs propagating along
the network system of Fig. 2.1. With the use of the network parameters (4.49) with
different C S (therefore, with different λ), we show in Fig. 4.30 the evolution of the
first-order (Fig. 4.30a–f) and second-order (Fig. 4.30g–l) SRWs with the correspond-
ing frequency chirp in the general situation when γ μ = 0 (here, we have used γ = 1
and μ = 1.5). It is clearly seen from plots of this figure that the first-order [second-
order] SRW has a 3-fold [a 5-fold] peak amplitude whose width increases with the

increase in parameter λ. Also, this figure reveals that the chirping associated with
the first-order [second-order] SRW exhibits a two dark [one bright] doubly localized
structure whose width increases with increasing in the values of parameter λ.
Effects of parameters γ , μ, k0 and a0 on the SRWs propagating through a lossless
network system Here, we intend to show that the choice in parameters γ and μ may
affect the wave structure. For this purpose, we use the same network parameters as
in Fig. 4.30 and the same carrier wavenumber, but different values of parameters γ
and μ (here we have used γ = 0.1 and μ = 3.5) to show in Fig. 4.31 the structure of
the first- and second-order SRWs with the corresponding chirping. Comparing plots
of Fig. 4.30 with the corresponding plots in Fig. 4.31, it is clearly seen that they have
different structures. We can visualize the destruction of chirped SRWs in Fig. 4.31
when varying the dispersion parameter λ in the same way as in Fig. 4.30. More

interestingly, plots of Fig. 4.31 reveal that with the increasing in λ, the structure of
the SRWs changes progressively, and after a certain critical value λc of λ, the SRW
and the corresponding chirping splits into two giant bright pulses (two-soliton) whose
amplitude and width can be modulated by readjusting the propagating frequency f p ,
as we can clearly observe from plots of Figs. 4.32 and 4.33.
Our investigations have also showed that for a given set of the network param-
eters and for given parameters k0 , a0 , γ , and μ, there does not exist a critical
frequency f pc before/after which the above chirped SRWs may split into two-
solitons. For a better understanding, we depict in Fig. 4.34 the density plot of the
wave intensity |u(x, τ )| for the network parameters (4.49) with (λ, γ , μ, a0 , k0 ) =

Examples of the obtained results are displayed in Figs. 4.35 and 4.36 showing
the propagation of respectively the first-order and second-order chirped super rogue
wave voltages along the network of Fig. 2.1. Plots of these two figures show that the

In this last Section of this Chapter, we have considered the one-dimensional lossless

we have obtained that the dispersive linear capacitance C S of the network impacts
the SRWs speed during their propagation.

The main aim of this Section being the study of the dynamics of modulated waves in
the network system of Fig. 5.2 for long-wavelength transverse perturbations [3–7],
it is reasonable to start by finding the amplitude equation, that is, the continuum
equation that governs the dynamics of modulated waves along our network system.
Such continuum equation can be obtained with the use of the reductive perturbation
method in the semi-discrete limit. For this aim, we introduce the following three
slow continuous variables, x = (n − υg t), y = m, and τ = 2 t, where is a
small parameter and υg is the longitudinal group velocity. Next, the solution of the
network equations (5.3) is sought in the general form

In Eq. (5.5), A, φ, and B are respectively the fundamental harmonic, the dc, and the
second harmonics.
It is clearly seen from Eq. (5.6) that the angular frequency ω decreases when
the dimensionless dispersive parameter γ0 increase. For a better understanding, we
depict in Fig. 5.3 the frequency curves versus the wavenumbers k and q for different
values of γ0 .

It is seen from Eq. (5.10) that dispersive coefficient P and the nonlinearity coeffi-
cient Q of the 2D NLS equation (5.9) are functions of the longitudinal wavenumber
k and take only negative values. It is important to note that the above amplitude
equation (5.9) is valid only for wavenumbers k and q that satisfy the condition (5.8).
Also, it is important to notice that equation f (k) = 0 may admit many real solutions

for all (k, q) = (kl , 2π Z).
As well as we know, the 2D NLS equation (5.9) under condition PQ > 0 admits the
following longitudinal bright soliton (that is, a soliton solution that depend on only
the time τ and the longitudinal variable x) [1]

In conclusion, we have employed the reductive perturbation method in the semi-
discrete to reduce the dynamics of modulated waves propagating along the network
system of Fig. 5.2 to a two-dimensional NLS equation. Based on the longitudinal
bright soliton solution of this equation, we have carried out numerical simulations
to investigate the transmission of bright solitonlike waves in our network system.
In the present Section, we treat the MI and the coherent structure for a multi-coupled
lossy mono-inductance transmission network. First, we show that the amplitude
equation for the dynamics of modulated waves propagating along this network system
is reduced to a system of generalized 2D CGL equation. Spatial wave solutions are
presented and their linear stability is investigated. Coherent structures for the found
2D CGL system are considered too, displaying numerical results for them.

5.2.1 Introduction
Although single NLTNs have been studied intensively, just a few works are reported
for multi-coupled ones, either via the equations of the KdV type [7, 9] or the equa-
tions of complex Ginzburg-Landau type, including NLS equations [1, 2, 10]. These
works study theoretically and/or experimentally the dynamics of modulated non-
linear waves, including the cylindrical solitons, two-dimensional transmission net-
work. Employing various analytical methods, solitons and nonlinear resonance of
two-dimensional transmission lines including network with intraline resistances have
also been examined [11–13].
The physical system to be studied in this section is the multi-coupled lossy discrete
transmission electrical network depicted in Fig. 5.7 [14, 15]. This network system
consists of M − 1 identical lines coupled one to another by means of linear capacitors
C2 at each node. Each line of the system is formed of N identical cells such as that
shown in Fig. 5.6a. In this physical system, the nodes are labelled with the help of
two discrete variables, variables n and m that specify the nodes in respectively the
longitudinal direction and the transverse direction. We assume that waves propagate
in both the n- and the m-direction, the longitudinal direction being assumed to be the
dominant propagation direction. Next, we assume that the electric charge Qn,m at the
(n, m)-th node depends on the voltage Vn,m across the capacitor of the n-th cell in
line m. Moreover, we assume that the electric charge Qn,m is related to the nonlinear
voltage-dependent capacitance by the relationship [16]
C0
C(Vn,m ) = p , (5.16)

where C0 and V0 are capacitance and voltage scales, the nonlinearity being repre-
sented by the real positive parameter p.

To derive the amplitude continuum equation that governs the dynamics of modulated
waves in the network system of Fig. 5.7, we use the traditional perturbation technique.
For this purpose, we introduces two slow time scales T1 and T2 , and two slow
spatial variables, X1 and Y1 as follows: T1 = t and T2 = 2 t, X1 = x and Y1 = y.
The original variables x, y, and t are denoted respectively by X0 , Y0 , and T0 . Next,
we seek the solution of the network equations (5.18) in the following general form:
V = 1/2 u11 exp (iθ1 ) + v11 exp (iθ2 ) + u22 exp (2iθ1 ) + v22 exp (2iθ2 )

where
k and q are the wavenumbers in respectively the x− and the y− directions, with the
corresponding angular frequencies ω1 and ω2 . Assuming that G + RC0 /L1 = O ()

When u(x, y, t)v(x, y, t) = 0, let us say, for example v(x, y, t) = 0, the system

when δ ≥ 0, it is necessary and sufficient that
r
D1 − k0 Q1i u02 + D2r − l0 Q2i v02 < 0.

The case of negative δ Considering now the case when δ < 0, the angular frequency
of modulation will be a pure imaginary number so that the Stokes wave solutions
(5.25)–(5.27) in the case of negative δ will be unstable under modulation if the
following two conditions are satisfied

Equation (5.32) under the condition (5.34) is always satisfied. As the conclusion, the
necessary and the sufficient conditions for the Stokes wave solutions (5.25)–(5.27)
to be unstable under modulation are respectively

Using these notations, the final result can be formulated in terms of the following
theorem.
Following the idea developed in works [19, 20] on the coherent structures in one-
component complex GL equation, we seek traveling wave solutions of system

where z = kx + qy − υcoh t is the propagating coordinate, F(z) and G(z) are the
local wavenumbers, υcoh is the propagating velocity, ω1coh and ω2coh are oscillating
frequencies, and k and q are the longitudinal and transverse wavenumbers. Injecting
ansatz (5.44) into system (5.21a)–(5.21b) yields

In conclusion, we have presented the results for the modulated wavetrains in the
multi-coupled lossy network system of Fig. 5.7. To make this possible, we have
first reduced the dynamics of modulated waves propagating in this network system
to a system of generalized two-dimensional complex GL equations with two cubic
derivative terms [14]. The MI of Stokes wave for both the two-component and one-
component 2D complex GL system is investigated. The coherent structures generated
by the derived 2D complex GL system are considered too.
This Section deals with the analytical study of the dynamics of modulated waves in an
alternate right-handed and left-handed multi-coupled nonlinear discrete electrical lat-
tice with losses. The amplitude continuum equation is reduced to a two-dimensional
complex GL equation, which is used to study the MI phenomenon of the network
system under consideration. We show that the network system under consideration
can adopt purely right-handed, purely left-handed, or composite right-/left-handed.
Analytically, we establish that our network system may support purely backward
traveling waves, purely forward traveling waves, or composite backward/forward
traveling waves. Using both the exact and approximate solitonlike solutions of the
derived amplitude equation, we investigate analytically RH, LH, as well as RH/LH
behaviors of the system [22].
The physical model to be studied in this Section is that showed in Fig. 5.10c, formed
by M − 1 identical lines, transversely coupled to one another by linear capacitors C2 .
Each line of this system, as we can see from Fig. 5.10c, consists of N identical cells
of a Noguchi lossy electric network such as that depicted in Fig. 5.10a [23–25]. In
the physical system of Fig. 5.10c, we have used two discrete coordinates, n and m to
182 5 Emission of Nonlinear Modulated Waves in Multi-coupled Nonlinear …
label the nodes in respectively the longitudinal and transverse direction. Throughout
this Section, we assume that waves propagate in both the transverse and longitudinal
directions, the later direction being assumed as the dominant propagation direction.
To investigate the dynamics of modulated waves in the network system of
Fig. 5.10c, we assume that the electric charge at the (n, m)−th node is voltage-
varying and related to voltage Vn,m across the n−th capacitor of the m−th line by
the relationship [15, 26, 27]

To derive the amplitude continuum equation, we assume that voltage Vn,m is
small enough compared with its value V0 in the equilibrium state [28, 29]. Next, we
combine the continuum limit approximation with the standard perturbation theory
[29]. For this aim, we take into consideration the fact that the dominant propagation
direction is the longitudinal direction n and introduce the following slow variables,

ξ = ε 2 (n − υt) , η = ε 2 m, τ = ε 2 t, and Vn,m (t) = εu(ξ, η, τ ) where ε 1 and

our network system are sufficiently smooth. Under the above considerations, we find
that υ 2 = u02 , while u(ξ, η, τ ) satisfies the equation

To investigate the dissipative effects on the linear waves (5.77), we have used
the network parameters (5.53) to display the evolution of the voltage Vn,m (t) in
Fig. 5.14 for given network line m as a function of the cell number n. Different plots
of Fig. 5.14 prove that the motion of linear waves in the network under consideration
can be observed only for small values of the dimensionless conductance σ such as
the experimental one [28]. Since the dissipation in the network enhances when either
CS of increases, the lifetime of the linear waves decreases as at least one of these
two parameters increases.
In this subsection , we study the phenomenon of the modulational instability for the
network system of Fig. 5.10c. This phenomenon finds its origins in hydrodynamics
and can occurs in many other branches of nonlinear sciences such as biophysics
[30], nonlinear optics [31], plasma systems, electrical transmission networks, Bose–
Einstein condensates [21, 21, 32–37], and others.
First of all, we note that the amplitude equation (5.73) admits the CW solution of
the form
ψ(ξ, η, τ ) = ψ0 exp [i (λξ + μη − ντ )] , (5.78)
where λ, μ, ν, and ψ0 are all real parameters and satisfy the relationships

To investigate the linear stability of the plane wave solution (5.78), we can look
for a solution of Eq. (5.73) by perturbing the solution (5.78) as follows
where δψ and ϑ are perturbation function and are assumed to be small in comparison
with the parameter of the carrier wave. If we insert Eq. (5.80) into Eq. (5.73) and
linearize the resulting equation with respect with both δψ and ϑ, we obtain a linear
differential system with constant coefficients (that is not presented here) in δψ and
ϑ. Applying the linear stability analysis to this system and denoting by K and and
the perturbation wavenumbers and frequency, we obtain, under the condition

In conclusion, for the Stokes wave solution (5.78)–(5.79) to be unstable under mod-

To show the effects of the dispersive parameter λS on the MI, we use the network
parameters (5.53) with the experimental value of σ = 0.461 × 10−2 to show the
evolution of the MI growth rate (K, ) given by Eq. (5.82) in Fig. 5.15. Figure
5.15a shows that the MI growth rate decreases and the region of the validity of K
shrinks as λS increases. This result is also confirmed by Fig. 5.15b–d where the
growth rate of MI is plotted versus the wavenumbers K and of the perturbation
for different values of the dispersive parameter λS .
Here, we turn to both the analytically and numerically studies of effects of the dissi-
pation on the motion of the electrical modulated waves in the multi-coupled electrical
network system of Fig. 5.10c. For this aim, we first find analytical and approximate
solitonlike solutions of the two-dimensional coupled GL equation (5.73).
Due to a fine balance between nonlinearity, dispersion, gain, and loss of energy
[39–41], it is possible to build exact solitonlike solutions of the 2D dissipative GL
equation (5.73). For this aim, we look for exact traveling wave solutions of Eq. (5.73)
in the form,

Effects of the dispersive element CS on the wave propagation To study the effects
of the dispersive element CS on the wave propagation, we depict in Fig. 5.19 the
evolution of the approximate electrical voltage Vn,m (t) for different values of param-
eter λS = CS /C0 . Different plots of Fig. 5.19 show that the wave amplitude [speed]
increases [decreases] as parameter λS increases. Our study has revealed that the
dispersive element CS has not effect on the soliton width.
Right-handed versus left-handed networks, forward vs backward bright soli-

study of the alternately LH and RH behaviors of our network system, the behavior of

on the envelope solitons propagating in the network system of Fig. 5.10c, we employ
here the exact electrical voltage Vn,m (t) given by Eq. (5.128). Before carrying out
this study, we first show in Fig. 5.20 the variation of the propagating frequency fp
versus k for different values of . Plots of Fig. 5.20 justify our choice on the exact
electrical voltage (5.128) for our study. It follows from Fig. 5.20 that for a given set

The above enumerated behaviors can be well seen in Figs. 5.21 and 5.22.
To analyze the effects of the transverse wavenumber on the wave propagation,
we display for different values of the evolution of envelop solitons, propagating
at the same frequency fp = 6.048 Hz (plots of the left panels) and fp = −1180 kHz
(plots of the right panels) along line m = 50 in Fig. 5.23. From plots of Fig. 5.23,
we can see that for solitons propagating at the same frequency,
(i) the soliton amplitude in the RH (LH) region decreases (increases) as increases;
(ii) the soliton width in the RH (LH) region decreases (increases) as increases;
(iii) the speed of the backward (forward) envelop soliton in the RH (LH) region
increases (decreases) when increases.
We end the present subsection with the study of the dynamics of composite for-
ward/backeward envelop solitons in the LH regime. For this purpose, we show in
Fig. 5.24 the spatial evolution at low frequencies fp = 4 Hz and fp = −4 Hz of respec-
tively the backward (left panels) and forward (right panels) envelop solitons in the
LH region. Plots of Fig. 5.24 reveal that the soliton amplitude and the soliton width

of the forward bright soliton is greater than that of the backward bright soliton.
Figure 5.25 shows the typical spatiotemporal evolution of composite back-
ward/forward bright solitons in the LH region. In this Fig. 5.25, envelop solitons
propagate along line m = 1 at low frequency fp = 4 Hz. Figure 5.25a, b shows the
propagation of backward [forward] bright solitons propagating at frequency fp = 4
Hz [fp = −4 Hz]. From these plots, we can see that the amplitude of the backward
bright soliton is greater than that of the forward soliton.

We have considered in this Section a multi-coupled Noguchi lossy NLTN with linear
dispersive elements. The dynamics of modulated waves propagating in this network
system are reduced to a two-dimensional complex GP equation whose coefficients
depend on the spatial linear gain χ . Using the amplitude continuum equation, we have
established the conditions under which Stokes waves will be unstable under modula-
tion. Next, exact and approximate solitonlike solutions of the amplitude continuum
equation are presented and used to investigate analytically the effects of various net-
work parameters as well as that of the transverse wavenumber on the dynamics of
210 5 Emission of Nonlinear Modulated Waves in Multi-coupled Nonlinear …
modulated wave solitons of our network system. Using the sign of the longitudinal
group velocity, we have classified the network system under consideration into three
classes, the class of right-hand, left-hand, and composite left-/right-hand network.
We found that these classification depends on the transverse wavenumber . Our
results showed that the network system under consideration may support backward
waves, forward waves, as well as composite backward/forward waves.
It is important to notice that during the investigation of the characteristics of the
physical system of Fig. 5.10c, we have assumed that air and ceramic core inductors
do not exhibit any significant voltage noise. Also, this study has neglected the voltage
noise from a varactor in reverse bias. Since the NLTN is extremely susceptible to
bias voltage noise contributions [44], we believe that by taking into consideration
the noises in the physical system of Fig. 5.10c, the dynamics of the modulated waves
studied in this Section may be affected.

220 6 Introduction
This Section deals with BEC models with a spatially modulated scattering length,
diverse versions of which have been elaborated theoretically by many scientists
[1–6]. We apply the phase-imprinting technique, a relatively new tool used for wave-
function engineering in BEC models, to reduce the GP equation that describes the
wave-function of such BEC models to a non-autonomous cubic derivative NLS equa-
tion with a time-dependent HO potential. It may be extended to manage the BEC
wave-function by means of absorption provided by proximity to a resonance with
frequencies of external laser illumination. The action of the phase-imprinting tech-
nique onto BEC amounts to modifying the phase pattern in the mean-field wave
function. As a result of this action, BEC atoms experience the action of a spatially
varying light-induced potential, and acquire thus the corresponding phase. One of
the main advantages of the application of PIT is that it conserves the total number of
BEC atoms.

7.1.1 Introduction
For the nonlinearity management of matter-wave solitons of the BECs, the Feshbach-
resonance may be used by modulating the scattering length of inter-atomic collisions
temporarily, spatially, or spatiotemporally, leading to generation of various novel
nonlinear phenomena [17–19]. For example, time-dependent modulation of the scat-
tering length can be used to stabilize attractive two-dimensional BECs against the
critical collapse [20]. Also, time modulating of the scattering length can lead to the
creation of robust matter-wave breathers in one-dimensional BECs [21]. It has been
showed that for BECs with a spatially varying scattering length, atomic matter waves
exhibit novel features [1, 22–24].
7.1 Non-autonomous Solitons in Bose-Einstein Condensates … 225
As it is seen from Eq. (7.3), the strength of the harmonic trap α(t) may take any
sign, the negative sign corresponding to the confining potential, while positive one
is associated with the expulsive potential. For the experimental purpose, the strength
α(t) is typically fixed to a constant value.
In the case of the cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates, the self-consistent
reduction of the three-dimensional GP equation to the one-dimensional one with the
external potential can be carried out by using a multiple-scale expansion [6]. For
this aim, one must introduce a small parameter δ defined as δ 2 = (N as /a0 )α 1
(where as is the s-wave scattering length), which can be used to evaluate the relative
strength of the two-body inter-atomic interactions as compared to the kinetic energy
of the atoms. This small parameter δ generally defines the ratio of the tight transverse
√
confinement to a characteristic scale along the longitudinal axis, as a⊥ /a0 ∼ δ α,
especially in the case of quasi-one-dimensional where the dynamics along the cigar’s
axis is of primary interest.
It is important to remember that the relation
δ r2 δx 1 2
(r, t) = √ exp(−iω⊥ t) exp − 2
u , δ ω⊥ t (7.4)
a⊥ as 2a⊥ a⊥ 2
g(x, t) = x g0 (t),
g (t) + (7.5)
ulational instability has been theoretically studied in work [25] and experimentally
demonstrated in work [26]. Following the results found in works [4] and [5], we
introduce in this Section modified version of the GP equation (7.2) with potential
(7.3) containing a cubic derivative term, and address the question of the MI of the
new GP equation.
Inhomogeneous NLS Equation with a Cubic Derivative Term Here, we employ
the PIT to reduce Eq. (7.2) with potential (7.3) to an inhomogeneous NLS equation
with a cubic derivative term. For this aim, we introduce a new wave-function, ψ(x, t),
related to the mean-field wave-function u(x, t) as follows [5]
where θ (x, t) is the imprinted real phase to be constructed according to the following
two equations:
β(t) being a time-varying real coefficient standing for the phase-imprint strength [4,
5].
Inserting ansatz (7.6) into the GP equation (7.2), we arrive at the derivative NLS
equation [5]
2
∂ψ ∂ ∂(|ψ|2 ψ)
i + + V (x, t) + g(x, t) |ψ|2
ψ + 4iβ(t) = 0. (7.9)
∂t ∂x2 ∂x
It follows from Eqs. (7.6)–(7.8) that |u(x, t)|2 = |ψ(x, t)|2 , meaning that the norm
under ansatz (7.6) is conserved, i.e., the total number N of atoms of the condensate
under transformation (7.6)–(7.8) is conserved.
Although the PIT scheme leading to Eq. (7.9) was not yet realized experimentally
in Bose-Einstein condensates, a similar experimental result, viz., creation of quasi-
one-dimensional dark solitons by means of sufficiently strong PIT was reported [27].
Modulational Instability in the Cubic Derivative NLS Equation
Before passing to the study of MI in the cubic derivative NLS (7.9), we first use
the results of works [3] and [10] to recapitulate the results obtained for the MI for a
similar equation with constant coefficients when the external potential is absent, that
is, an equation of the form
∂ψ ∂2 ∂ |ψ|2 ψ
i + + g0 |ψ| ψ + 4iβ
2
= 0, (7.10)
∂t ∂x2 ∂x
where g0 and β are two real constants. It is obvious that Eq. (7.10) admits the
continuous-wave solution
7.1 Non-autonomous Solitons in Bose-Einstein Condensates … 227
where φ0 and q are two arbitrary real constants. The MI of the CW solution (7.11)
can be analyzed by linear stability analysis [14] by perturbing the CW solution (7.11)
as follows
ψ(x, t) = [φ0 + ε(x, t)] exp iq x − i[q 2 + (4βq − g0 ) φ02 ]t , (7.12)
where ε(x, t) is a small complex perturbation satisfying the condition |ε(x, t)|
|φ0 |. If we substitute ansatz (7.12) into Eq. (7.10) and neglect higher order in ε(x, t),
we derive to the Bogoliubov–de Gennes (BdG) equation:
∂ε ∂ 2ε ∂ε ∂ε∗
i + 2 + 2i q + 4βφ02 + 4iβφ02 + φ02 (g0 − 4βq) ε + ε∗ = 0.
∂t ∂x ∂x ∂x
(7.13)
Being a linear partial differential equation, we can seek eigenmodes of the perturba-
tion as
ε(x, t) = U1 exp [i (Qx − t)] + U2∗ exp −i Qx − ∗ t , (7.14)
to obtain the dispersion relation connecting the perturbation wavenumber Q and the
complex angular frequency of the perturbation:
2
− 2Q q + 4βφ02 = Q 2 φ02 16β 2 φ02 + 8qβ − 2g0 + Q 2 . (7.15)
It follows from Eq. (7.15) that the MI occurs when the perturbation wavenumbers Q
satisfies that condition
Q 2 < −2φ02 8β 2 φ02 + 4qβ − g0 , (7.16)
which may hold for independently on the sign of g0 and β, that is, for both focusing
and defocusing signs of the nonlinearities. Indeed, condition (7.16) is valid only
when 8β 2 φ02 + 4qβ − g0 < 0, that is, for values of β belonging to interval
q+ q 2 + 2g0 φ02 −q + q 2 + 2g0 φ02
Dβ ≡ − <β< . (7.17)
4φ02 4φ02
In the case of the focusing nonlinearity (g0 = +1), condition (7.18) is satisfied for
all q and φ0 satisfying the condition |q| + |φ0 | > 0. In the case of the defocusing
nonlinearity (g0 = −1), the necessary condition (7.18) holds only when q and φ0
228 7 Dynamics of One-Dimensional Condensates …
satisfy the constraint q 2 − 2φ02 > 0. Thus, Eq. (7.18) is the necessary condition for
MI of the CW solutions for the cubic derivative NLS equation (7.10). When β = 0,
Eq. (7.10) is just the standard NLS equation whose MI results from the Benjamin
and Feir [28] criterion g0 > 0.
Taking into account the condition (7.16), the MI growth rate (gain) for the deriva-
tive NLS equation in the free space reads
|Im| = |Q| 2g0 − 16β 2 φ02 − 8qβ φ02 − Q 2 . (7.19)

ψ(x, t) = φ(X, T ) exp[i f (t)x 2 + η(t)]. (7.20)

Here, T = T (t),
(t), η(t), and f (t) are real functions of time, and X (x, t) =
x
−1 (t). The lens transformation was originally introduced by Talanov [30] as an
invariant transformation for the two-dimensional NLS equation, which changes the
scale of the coordinates and adds the radial chirp to the wave-function. Its significance
is stressed by its compatibility with adiabatic variation of the wave-function and with

It is important to note that the LT can be applied as well to the two-dimensional NLS
equation in the presence of the isotropic HO potential [32].

This shows that the invariance of the inhomogeneous NLS equation with a cubic
derivative term with respect to LT is maintained.
Now, we can solve Eqs. (7.22b), (7.22c) and (7.21) in terms of f (t) to obtain

We have thus obtained that the problem of finding time-varying parameters
(t), η(t),
and T (t) is reduced to finding f (t), that is, to solving the Riccati equation (7.22a).
According to Ansatz (7.20), the time-varying parameter η(t) affects the total

t

(t) exp[η(t)] =
(0) exp[−2 f (υ) dυ + η(0)],

so that the total number N of the condensate atoms exponentially grows if f (t),
solution of the Riccati equation (7.22a), is negative, and exponentially decays if f (t)
is positive. In other words, negative f (t) represents the feeding of atoms into the
condensate, while positive f (t) implies loss of atoms. While f (t) depends on the
strength of the HO trap, α(t), its sign does not dependent on that of α(t).

tributed coefficients, we introduce the perturbed solutions as [5]

Here, K and ω are the wavenumber and the complex frequency of the perturbation,

K X − 0 ω(υ) dυ is the modulation phase, and U1 and U2 are two complex ampli-
tudes satisfying the condition that |U1 | + |U2 | > 0. To observe the phenomenon of
the MI, the complex angular frequency ω of the perturbation must have a nonzero
imaginary part. The following time-dependent dispersion relation is obtained by
inserting expression (7.29) into Eq. (7.28):
2
ω − 2K λφ02 − Q − K 2 K 2 + φ02 λ2 φ02 − 2Qλ − 2λ0 = 0. (7.30)
Asking that ω has a nonzero imaginary part leads to the following relationship on
φ0 , K , and Q :
K 2 + φ02 λ2 φ02 − 2Qλ − 2λ0 < 0, (7.31)
which forms the MI criterion for the cubic derivative NLS equation (7.23). If the
criterion (7.31) holds, the local MI gain is given by
|Im ω(t)| = |K | φ02 2Qλ(t) + 2λ0 (t) − λ2 (t)φ02 − K 2 . (7.32)

In the special case of constant λ0 and λ, it follows from Eqs. (7.21)–(7.22d) that
g0 (t) will satisfy the nonlinear second-order ODE
β must be constant, while α(t) and
d 2

We thus obtain that in the special case of constant λ0 , λ and β, the problem of finding
(t), η(t), and T (t) amounts to solving Eq. (7.33). This Eq. (7.33) admits interesting
and important special solutions in g0 (t) and α(t). For instance, a0 exp
g0 (t) = λt
produces constant α = −λ /4.2
Following work [25], one of the most interesting cases in the setting with the
external harmonic potential is obtained by taking α(t) as follows:
where A and t ∗ are two real constants; A and t ∗ determine the strength of the potential
and its width at t = 0, respectively. The corresponding g0 (t) can be obtained by
inserting expression (7.34) in Eq. (7.33); this results to

Condition A < 16 1
allows us to investigate the MI for both the confining and expul-
sive potentials (A < 0 and A > 0, respectively). It is important to note that the
situation t ∗ < 0 describes BEC in a shrinking trap, while the situation of positive t ∗
corresponds to a broadening condensate. Combining expressions (7.35) with Eqs.
(7.22a)–(7.22d) determines all time-varying parameters; in particular,
2m+1
t∗ t
T (t) = +1 −1 .

In order to secure
√ the variation of T from zero
√ to infinity, it is necessary to take
m = (−1 + 1 − 16A )/2 and m = −(1 + 1 − 16A)/2 in respectively the cases
of the broadening and shrinking trap. In the latter case, we focus on t varying from
0 to −t ∗ ; this provides the variation of T from 0 to +∞.
Considering the case of constant λ0 and λ, the MI growth rate does not depend
on time t , but depends on the phase-imprint parameter β as follows:
|Im ω(β)| = |K | φ02 −λ2 (β)φ02 + 2Qλ(β) + 2λ0 − K 2 . (7.36)
It is clearly seen from Eq. (7.36) that the variation of the gain, controlled by β, may
significantly modify the instability domain and therefore bring new effects. Indeed,
different numerical values of β lead to different instability diagrams, depending on

the sign of λ(β): negative λ(β) softens the instability, while positive one enhances the
instability. For a better understanding, we show in 7.2 the MI growth rate provided by
Eq. (7.36) versus the perturbation wavenumber K , for three values of negative λ(β)
and three values of positive λ(β). As we can see from 7.2a generated with negative
λ(β), the MI growth rate decreases with the increasing in the values of parameter λ;
from 7.2b, obtained with positive λ(β), we can see that the gain increases with the
increasing in the values of λ.
We can summarize the results of the MI in the case of constant λ0 and λ as follows.
For the occurrence of MI of Stokes wave solutions
φ = φ0 exp −i Q X − i Q 2 − λ0 φ02 − Qφ02 λ T ,
What happens when at least one of λ0 and λ is not constant. Considering for
example the strength α(t) of the HO potential to have the form

α(t) = ∗

we can integrate the Riccati equation (7.22a) and find its special solution as follows:

f (0) (1 − 8B) (t ∗ )8B − B (1 − 8B) (t ∗ )8B−1
With the use of Eqs. (7.34) and (7.37), one obtains the following functional param-
eters from Eqs. (7.22a)–(7.22d):

As we can see from Eqs. (7.39a)–(7.39d), β(t) is now a time-varying parameter and
depends on g (t). In the case of positive t ∗ (broadening condensate), we take B < 1/4
and choose
(0) so that T (t) will vary from 0 to +∞. For Bose-Einstein condensates
in the shrinking trap (t ∗ < 0), the appropriate choice of
(0) and B > 1/4 demon-
strates that taking 0 ≤ t < t ∗ corresponds to the variation of T (t) from 0 to +∞.
It is obvious that when at least one of λ0 and λ varies with time, the MI growth rate
(gain) given by Eq. (7.32) will depend on time t. In such a situation, the variation of
the gain, related to the sign of t ∗ may significantly affect the MI domain and introduce
new effects: the instability is enhanced or attenuated by respectively t ∗ < 0 or t ∗ > 0,
as we can see from plots of Fig. 7.3. Figure 7.3 displays the MI gain produced by
Eq. (7.32), versus the perturbation wavenumber K , for three negative and three
positive values of t ∗ . Plots of Fig. 7.3a, realized with negative t ∗ (shrinking trap)
show that the MI gain increases with t ∗ . As we can see from plots of Fig. 7.3b,
generated with positive t ∗ (broadening trap), the MI gain decreases as t ∗ increases.
Different plots in this 7.3 are produced with the use of g0 (t) = 2 exp (0.5t) and
g (t) = 2 exp (−t).
The above analysis informs us that the simplest and most interesting case in
the setting with the time-dependent external harmonic potential is the one with the
inverse-square time dependence of the trap strength given in Eq. (7.34) with A <
1/16. In this special case, the modified LT demonstrates the equivalence of the setting
to the cubic derivative NLS equation. The situation of derivative NLS equation with
distributed coefficients, suggests that frequencies of eigenmodes of the modulational
perturbations are either constant or effectively time-dependent.

In the present subsection, we follow the results of work [5] and present in the ana-
lytical form, matter-wave solitons of Eq. (7.23) when parameters λ0 and λ appearing
in Eq. (7.24) are all constant.
It is clearly seen that Eq. (7.23) admits the Stokes wave solutions of form
φ(X, T ) = φ0 exp −ik0 X + i λ0 φ02 + k0 λφ02 − k02 T , (7.40)
for constant φ0 and k0 , when λ0 and λ are all constant. Next, we seek a solution of
Eq. (7.23) in the Madelung form,
and arrive at the following system of equations for the real amplitude and phase:
It follows from the form of the Stokes wave solution (7.40) that solutions to system
(7.42) can be have the following traveling-wave form:
236 7 Dynamics of One-Dimensional Condensates …
R(X, T ) = φ0 + ρ(z), (X, T ) = −k0 z + ϕ(z) + λ0 φ02 + λk0 φ02 − k02 − k0 υ T,
(7.43)
where z = X − υT is the propagating coordinate in which υ is an arbitrary velocity.
If we insert ansatz (7.43) into the system of equations (7.42) and integrate the second
equation, we arrive to

respectively to the confining (A < 0) and expulsive (A > 0) potentials. For
x = 3, Fig. 7.5 shows the time evolution of the wave density |u(x, t)|2 for three
different numerical values of t ∗ . It is clearly seen from different plots of Fig.
7.5 that the amplitude of the density profile decreases as t ∗ increases for the
broadening trap, and increases with the growth of t ∗ for the shrinking trap, when
A < 0 (in the case of the confining potential). In the case of expulsive poten-
tial (A > 0), the profile’s amplitude increases with t ∗ for both broadening and
shrinking traps. Figure 7.6 depicts the time evolution of the density |u(x, t)|2
for x = 3 and for three different values of A. Plots of this figure shows that, for
both the confining (top panels) and expulsive (bottom panels) potentials, the
profile’s amplitude decreases as parameter A increases; this situation happens
for both the broadening (plots of the left panels) and shrinking (plots of the right
panels) BEC traps. We can seen from plots of Fig. 7.7 where the wave density
|u(x, t)|2 is displayed for x = 3 and for different values of β that, irrespective
of the sign of A (confining/expulsive potential) and the sign of parameter t ∗
(broadening/shrinking trap), the density-profile’s amplitude decreases with the
increase of the values of the imprint parameter β.

we plot in Fig. 7.10, the spatial profile at time t = 4 the wave density |u(x, t)|2 for different
values of β. It is clearly seen from different plots of Fig. 7.10 that, irrespective of the sign of
A (the confining or expulsive potential) and the sign of t ∗ (the broadening or shrinking trap),
the density peak decreases with the increase in the numerical values of the imprint parameter
β.
7.1.4 Conclusion
We have investigated in this Section the MI of continuous wave states in the context
of the inhomogeneous cubic derivative NLS equations with external time-varying
harmonic potentials in the context of BECs. To make this investigation possible
for both attractive and repulsive nonlinearities, we have combined the phase-imprint
technique with a modified lens transformation. Such a combination has allowed us to
cast the problem in the form in which the cubic derivative NLS equation has constant
coefficients. The special case when the strength of the magnetic trap modulated in
time ∼ (t + t ∗ )−2 is investigated in details. The effects of both the PIT imprint
parameter and trap parameter t ∗ on the MI gain are investigated. In the case of
the constant MI gain, we have presented the analytical exact matter-wave soliton
solutions of the inhomogeneous NLS equation under the consideration. Also, the
effects of various parameters on the shape of matter-wave solitons are considered.

local growth rate of MI (7.72) will be time-independent only when the relationships
(7.66) are satisfied under the condition g0 < 0.
Let us consider the situation when the relationships (7.66) are violated. In such a
situation, the local growth rate of MI (7.72) will depend on time. For simplicity, let
us consider the important case when k is constant, which is generally used in current
experiments [60]. Integrating Eqs. (7.60) and (7.58) when k is constant, we find that

Dynamics of Matter Wave Solitons in BECs with Two- and Three-Body Inter-
actions With the use of the above found solitonlike solutions, we investigate here
the dynamics of matter-wave solitons in BECs with loss/gain of atoms when both
the two- and three-body inter-atomic interactions are taken into account. Param-
eters g and are assumed to be linked by the relationship |(t)| = 01 % |g(t)|
(with 0 < 01 < 100), which means that the two-body inter-atomic interactions are
stronger than the three-body interactions [49]. Here, we focus our attention on the
situation when g(t) and γ (t) satisfy Eq. (7.77), while γ (t) and k(t) satisfy Eq. (7.76).
In the following, we focus our attention to the following three special cases:
(i) The case of constant k(t) [64]. Following the results of the experiment carried
out in work [64], we set k(t) = −2κ 2 (κ 0.05). Equations (7.76) and (7.77)
then give

constants to be chosen properly, T0 is a constant to be taken so that T (0) = 0, and
ρ(ξ(x, t) is any of found bright solitonlike solutions (7.87) and (7.92) of Eq. (7.80).
The soliton phase is found to be

meaning that the soliton centre behaves like a classical particle; therefore, param-
eter k and λ can be used to to manipulate the motion of matter-wave solitons in

(this fact can be clearly seen from Eq. (7.97)) and therefore, we can employ
Eq. (7.96) to describe the compression of matter wave solitons in BECs under

bias magnetic/laser field with strength σ /η and with the modulation frequency θ .
Application to BEC systems with a time-independent harmonic and linear
potentials As the example of BEC system with a time-independent harmonic and
linear potentials, we consider k(t) = −2κ 2 (κ = 0.05), γ (t) = ±κ [53, 60, 68],
leading to the following parameter g(t) of the two-body inter-atomic interactions

For BEC with loss of atoms (γ (t) = −κ), wsol (t) → 0 as t → +∞, meaning that in
the case of BEC with loss of atoms, pulse width can be compressed quite effectively.

(a), (b), (e), and (f) of Fig. 7.12 show respectively gray and bright solitons propa-
gating along oscillating trajectories; this behavior of the wave trajectory is due to
the temporal periodic modulation of the laser field. For the BECs with gain (loss)

seen from plots of the left and right panels, respectively. Different plots of Figs. 7.13

For the second example, we follow Hao et al. [69] and consider a BEC system for
which parameter g(t) of the two-body inter-atomic interactions is of the form
where 0 < m < 1, κ, ϑ, and g01 = 0 are free parameters. It then follows from Eqs.

It is evident that for small values of parameter κ, the dissipative parameter γ (t) will
periodically change its sign; this corresponds to a BEC system which periodically
gains and losses atoms. Computing the soliton width in the present case gives

With the set of parameters given in Eqs. (7.105) and (7.106), we display respec-
tively in Figs. 7.16 and 7.17 the spatiotemporal evolution of the matter-wave gray
soliton (plots of the top panels) and bright soliton (plots of the bottom panels). Pan-
els (a)–(c) [(d)–(f)]of these figures correspond to BECs with gain [loss] of atoms.
Plots (a) and (d) [(b) and (e)] are associated with BECs under the effects of the bias
magnetic field [laser field] only, while plots plots (c) and (f) are generated for BECs
with the combined bias magnetic and laser fields. It follows from plots of Figs. 7.16
and 7.17 that
(i) for a weak laser field, that is (η 0), the matter-wave solitons move with a con-

stant acceleration x = −σ along a parabolic trajectory whose direction depends
on the sign of the dissipative parameter γ (t), as one can observe from plots (a)
and (d);
(ii) when σ 0 (weak bias magnetic field), the matter-wave solitons move in +x
direction along an oscillatory trajectory, as it is well seen from plots (b) and (e);
(iii) for ησ = 0 (combination of the bias magnetic and laser fields effects), the mat-
ter wave solitons move along a parabolic oscillating trajectory whose direction
depends on the sign of the dissipative parameter γ (t), as we can see from plots
(c) and (f);

7.3.1 Introduction
At very low temperatures, the matter-wave function (r, t) at position r and time t
of BECs trapped in an external potential V (r, t) can usually be described by the GP
equation [52, 71–76]
∂(r, t) 2 2
i = − ∇ + V (r, t) + g0 |(r, t)| + χ0 |(r, t)| (r, t),
2 4
∂t 2m
(7.107)
where g0 = 42 as (t)/m and χ0 are the strengths of respectively the two- and three-
body inter-atomic interactions, and m are respectively the Planck constant and the
atomic mass, and as (t) is the s-wave scattering length. In this Section, we focus our
attention to BEC systems with external potential given by Anderson et al. [77]

where γ is the gain/loss parameter. As in the previous Section, we follow Gammal
et al. [75] and assume that χ0 = χ 0 g0 with 0 ≤ χ0 < 1. Next, we introduce the
transformation

∂t 2 ∂x 2
(i) t and x are√the temporal and spatial coordinates measured in respectively 1/ω⊥
and a⊥ = / (mω⊥ );
(ii) parameter g of the two-body inter-atomic interactions is a function of time t and
is given g = −2as /(3a B ) and can take any sign [83];
(iii) strength of the harmonic potential α expresses the trapping frequency in the x−
direction [84], is defined as α = ±ω2 /(2ω⊥2
), and can take any sign, positive for
confining potential and negative for repulsive potential;
(iv) parameter γ related to the feeding (γ > 0) or loss (γ < 0) of atoms in the
condensate [53, 68, 85].
Under the above conditions, we here intend to study the generation of chirped fem-
tosecond solitons and chirped double-kink solitons [86–92] in BECs with time-
dependent atomic scattering length in a time-varying complex potential when the
gain/loss of atoms is taken into account. For this purpose, we first reduce the GP

equation (7.108) into a NLS equation with higher-order (HO) terms which may sup-
port the propagation of ultrashort solitons including dark/bright and double-kink
solitons [93–106]. Such a reduction can be made possible via the so-called modified
phase-imprint method. Once this reduction is done, the integrable and the compensa-
tion conditions for the derived higher-order NLS (HO-NLS) equation are presented.
Under the integrable conditions, we adopt a nonlinear chirping ansatz which differs
from that used by many authors [96, 100] to present various families of chirped
solitonlike solutions of the found HO-NLS equation. Using the found analytical
solutions of the HO-NLS equation, we study the dynamics of chirped femtosecond
solitons and chirped double-kink solitons in the BECs with time-varying scattering
length and loss/gain of atoms in a harmonic trapping potential.

which in the context of nonlinear optics can be used to model the propagation of
femtosecond (ultrashort) pulses in a single-mode optical fiber [108, 108–112]. In the
below study, solitonlike solutions of the HO-NLS equation (7.111) will be referred
to as the femtosecond or double-kink solitonlike solutions, and any solitonlike solu-
tion of the GP equation (7.108) built with the use of these solutions will be called
femtosecond or double-kink solitonlike solutions of Eq. (7.108).
From the HO-NLS equation (7.111), one can derive a series of well-known inte-
grable equations of Schrödinger type. Indeed, when
(i) β0 − α0 = 0, Eq. (7.111) reduces to the Chen–Lee–Liu type NLS (CLL–
NLS) equation [113], the Kaup–Newell type NLS (KN–NLS) equation [114] can
be obtained from Eq. (7.111) by setting β0 − 2α0 = 0,
(ii) by setting β0 = 0, the HO-NLS equation (7.111) coincides with the Gerdjikov–
Ivanov (GI) equation [115].
Throughout this Section, conditions (7.110b) and (7.110c) under which the HO-
NLS equation with self-steepening and self-frequency shift (7.111) is derived will
be referred to as the integrable conditions of the GP equation (7.108). From Eq.
(7.110b), we can express parameter g(t) of the two-body inter-atomic interactions
in term of the gain/loss parameter γ (t) as follows
⎡ ⎤
t
g(t) = λ0 exp ⎣−4 γ (τ )dτ ⎦ ,
0
where λ0 is a free real constant. This means that under the above integrable conditions,
parameter γ (t) of the gain/loss of the condensate atoms can be used to manage the
matter-wave solitons (soliton peak and soliton compression) [53, 116]. Throughout
this Section, we understand by compensation process, any process which consists
of a balance of loss or gain effects with the effects of the s-wave scattering length
on the condensate. The compensation process will then ensures the stability of the
condensates over a longer interval of time. Therefore, Eq. (7.110b) which link g(t)
and γ (t) will be referred to as the “ compensation condition”.
Chirped Femtosecond and Chirped Double-Kink Solitonlike Solutions
of the HO-NLS Equation Now, we turn our attention to the exact solitonlike solu-
tions of the HO-NLS equation (7.111). For simplicity, we limit ourselves to traveling
wave solution whose form is
∂ d
δ ω(X, T ) = − (χ (ξ ) − T ) = − χ (ξ ) = −χ (ξ ).
∂X dξ
In order to obtain exact chirped solitonlike solutions of Eq. (7.111), we ask that Eq.
(7.112) satisfies Eq. (7.111). We then obtain that ρ and χ must be solutions of the
following differential system:
dχ 1 dχ 2 1 d 2ρ dχ 3
ρ + υ ρ− ρ+ 2
− α0 ρ + g0 ρ 3
dξ 2 dξ 2 dξ dξ

dξ 2
Inserting now Eq. (7.116) into Eqs. (7.114) and (7.115a), we obtain respectively that

b5 = α0 (α0 − β0 ) , b3 = 2 (g0 − α0 υ) ,b1 = 2 + υ 2 . (7.119)
2
It follows from Eq. (7.117) that the chirping amplitude can be controlled by varying
the free parameters g0 , α0 , and β0 . We can also see from Eq. (7.117) that the chirping
δω(x, t) consists of two parts, one part which is proportional to the wave density
|ψ(x, t)|2 = ρ 2 (x, t), and one linear time-dependent term.
To exploit some known classes of solutions of Eq. (7.118), especially its localized
solutions which can be expressed in terms of the Weierstrass elliptic function ℘ [35,
36, 117], we set r (ξ ) = ρ 2 (ξ ) reducing Eq. (7.118) to the following form

where δ1 is a free constant of integration. As in the previous Sections, for Eq. (7.120)
to admit solitonlike solutions, it is sufficient
Under conditions (7.122), Eq. (7.120) admits the following solitonlike solution

where e1 = 3 −g3 and r0 is any simple zero of R(r ). For solution (7.123) to be
nonnegative, additional restrictions must be imposed on b1 , b3 , b5 . In what follows,
we discuss, dependent on the behavior of the parameters b5 , b3 , b1 , and δ1 . We will
distinguish two special cases, the case b5 b3 b1 = 0 and the case b5 b3 b1 = 0.
Case b5 = 0 and b3 b1 = 0 Asking that = 0 in the special case when b5 = 0 and

b3 b1 = 0, we obtain two special values for δ1 , namely δ1 = 0 and δ1 = 16β11 . Using

To observe the double-kink features of the solitonlike solution (7.136) of Eq. (7.118),
we plot in Fig. 7.19 the wave amplitude ρ(ξ ) = ρ+ (ξ ) given by Eq. (7.136) for

Now, we use the found above exact solitonlike solutions of Eq. (7.108) to investigate
analytically the dynamics of chirped femtosecond solitons and chirped double-kink
solitons in BECs described by the GP equation (7.108). Analyzing the found above
exact solitonlike solutions ψ(x, t) of the GP equation (7.108) and the corresponding

BECs with Time-Independent Harmonic Potential Our first example the BECs
system with time-independent harmonic potential used in the creation of bright BEC
solitons [118]. For this example, we have α = −2λ2 with λ ≈ 0.05. It then follows
from the integrable conditions (7.110b) and (7.110c) that γ (t) = ±λ and g(t) =
λ0 exp [∓4λt] , where λ0 = 0 is a free constant to be taken from the condition λ0 g0 >
0. For the present example, we depict in Fig. 7.20 the dynamics of a double-kink
soliton (to panels) and the corresponding chirping (bottom panels). Plots of the
left panels [right panels] correspond to g(t) = λ0 exp [4λt] and γ (t) = −λ [g(t) =
λ0 exp [−4λt] and γ (t) = λ]. It is seen from different plots that for BEC with gain
of atoms, both the soliton and the corresponding chirping have double-kink feature
(plots of the left panels).
To show the effects of the self-steepening coefficient α0 on the dynamics of the
femtosecond soliton, we use the set of parameters

as

For the present example, we show respectively in Figs. 7.22 and 7.23 the dynamics
of a double-kink soliton and a bright femtosecond soliton with the corresponding
chirping. In these two constants, plots of the top [bottom] panels are generated with
positive [negative] self-steepening coefficient α0 . These two constants show chirped
solitons moving along an oscillatory trajectory in a direction that depends on the
sign of α0 . Independently of the sign of parameter α0 , both the double-kink soliton
and the corresponding chirping shown in Fig. 7.22 have double-kink feature. Plots of
Fig. 7.23 reveal that chirping associated with a bright soliton may have, depending
on the sign of parameter α0 , either the dark or the bright soliton feature.
BECs with a Time-Varying Hyperbolic S-Wave Scattering Length

length, we follow Xue [120] and assume the parameter g(t) of the two-body inter-
atomic interactions to have the form

Plots of the top (bottom) panels are obtained with positive (negative) self-steepening
coefficient α0 . The same results as in the previous example are obtained here: the
sign of the self-steepening coefficient α0 plays an important role in the direction of
the wave motion and the feature of the frequency chirp. It is sure that the sign of
parameter μ may also affect the wave width. For a better understanding, we display
in the top (bottom) panels of Fig. 7.26 the evolution plot of the double-kink soliton
(femtosecond soliton) and their corresponding chirp for a negative μ.

models are then employed to build first- and second-order rational solutions of a dis-
sipative GP equation which governs the dynamics of BECs trapped in time-varying
external potentials when the loss/gain of condensate atoms is considered.

i + + g(t) |ψ|2 ψ + k(t)x 2 + λ(t)x + iγ (t) ψ = 0, (8.1)
∂t 2 ∂x 2
where g(t), k(t), λ(t), and γ (t) are all real functions of time t. Function V (x, t)
defined as
V (x, t) = k(t)x 2 + λ(t)x + iγ (t) (8.2)
is the most physically relevant example of an external potential in the BEC context;
in this context, Eq. (8.1) describes the macroscopic wave function ψ(x, t) of the
condensate. In the BEC context, the nonlinearity parameter g(t) and parameters
k(t), λ(t), and γ (t) have the same physical meanings as in Chap. 7 [15–19]. Also,
the temporal and the spatial coordinates t and x are measured as described in Chap.
7. k(t)x 2 , λ(t)x, and iγ (t) are respectively the harmonic, linear, and dissipative
parts of potential (8.2). Throughout this Section, we assume that increasing the BEC
number of atoms will not lead to the collapse of the system [18–21]. Henceforth, Eq.
(8.1) will be referred to as the model equation.
First- and Second-Order Rational Solutions of the Model Equation For extracting
rational solutions of the model equation (8.1), we look for solutions of the form
ψ(x, t) = [A(t) + B(t)ψ1 (X, T ) + iC(t)ψ2 (X, T )] exp [iχ (x, t) + iλ0 T (t)] .
(8.3)
In Eq. (8.3), A, B, C, T , χ , ψ1 , ψ2 , and X = X (x, t) are real real functions and λ0
is a real control parameter. Next, we impose to X, χ , A, B, C to satisfy the following
conditions

− T0 α 2 (t) = 0, T0 = 0, (8.4d)

8.1 Non-autonomous Rogue Matter Waves in Bose-Einstein… 291
A0 , B0 , C0 , and T0 being real constants. Under the above conditions, we insert ansatz
(8.3) into the model equation (8.1) and obtain, under the restriction
g02 α 2 − g 2 exp −4 γ (t)dt = 0, g0 = 0 : g0 g(t) > 0, (8.8)

d2g dg dγ dg
g −2 + 2g 2 k − 2g g − 2γ + 2gγ 2 = 0, (8.9)

yields the following first-order rational solution of the model equation (8.1)

1 + 2 [α(t)x + β(t)]2 + 4T 2
(8.12)
It is important to notice that solution (8.11) of system (8.10a )–(8.10b) corresponds
to A0 = λ0 = 1, g0 = 21 , and T0 = 21 so that the first-order rational solution (8.12) of
the model equation (8.1) is valid for 0 < g0 g(t) = 21 g(t), for BECs with attractive
inter-atomic interactions.
To build the second-order rational solution of system (8.10a)–(8.10b), we consider,
for simplicity, the special case when A0 = λ0 = 1, g0 = 21 , and T0 = 21 . In this
292 8 Rogue Matter Waves in Bose-Einstein Condensates …
special case, we have g0 g(t) = 21 g(t) so that the corresponding second-order rational
solution of the model equation will be associated with BECs with attractive inter-
atomic interactions. Employing the direct method developed in Ref. [23], second-
order rational solution (ψ1 , ψ2 )T of system (8.10a)–(8.10b) has the form

× 2g exp −2 γ (t)dt exp [iχ(x, t) + i T (t)] . (8.15)
Here, we show how to employ parameter g(t) of the two-body inter-atomic interac-
tions and the potential parameters k(t), λ(t) and γ (t) to control and manage the BECs
rogue matter waves [24, 25]. First, we note that, the amplitude of non-autonomous
rogue matter waves corresponding to the first- and the second-order solutions (8.12)
and (8.15) of the model equation (8.1) is proportional to
p(t) = 2g(t) exp −2 γ (t)dt ,
8.1 Non-autonomous Rogue Matter Waves in Bose-Einstein… 293
while their width is inversely proportional to α(t). Moreover, the wave centre is
found to be ξ(t) = −β(t)/α(t) and satisfies the equation
d 2ξ
− 2kξ − λ = 0, (8.16)
dt 2
which depends on both k and λ. This means that the we can manipulate the motion
of rogue matter waves by controlling both the external harmonic and linear trap-
ping potentials. Based on physical examples, we demonstrate in what follows the
engineering of rogue matter waves in one-component BECswith different kinds of
scattering length and complex trapping potential. Without loss of generality, we focus
our attention to only the case of positive α(t).
Dissipative Rogue Matter Waves in BEC System with Time-Independent Har-
monic Confining Potential Our first example is the BEC trapped in the time-
independent harmonic potential similar to the one used in Ref. [21]. We thus consider
a time-independent harmonic potential with strength k(t) = −2κ 2 , where κ 0.05.
Following Wu et al. [26], we employ for this example g(t) = exp [±2κt]. Asking
that the integrable condition (8.9) occurs yields
1√ 1√
γ (t) = γ− = κ − 2κ and γ (t) = γ+ = κ + 2κ. (8.17)

Solving now system (8.5)–(8.8), we find

for respectively γ (t) = γ− and γ (t) = γ+ , where β01 and β02 are free constants to
be taken so that |β(t)| > 0.
The typical evolution of dynamics of non-autonomous dissipative first- and
second-order rogue matter waves for BECs with time-independent harmonic confin-
ing potential described above are showed in Fig. 8.1. Plots of this figure are generated
with γ (t) = γ+ , which correspond to g(t) = exp [2κt] , which is an increasing func-
tion of time. Plots of Fig. 8.1 show the first- and second-order rogue matter waves
embedded on an increasing CW background whose peaks are reached at time t 0.

waves can concentrate the energy of the BEC system with gain of atoms in a small
region. We conclude from plots of Fig. 8.1 that with the increasing (decreasing) g(t),
the rogue matter wave is embedded on an increase (decrease) CW background.
Dissipative Rogue Matter Waves in BEC System with a Temporal Periodic Mod-
ulation of the S-Wave Scattering Length Following the idea developed in works
[27] and [28], we consider as our second example, a BEC system whose parameter
g of the two-body inter-atomic interaction has the form [29]
for the constant ω. For simplicity, we set λ(t) = 0 and γ (t) = γ = constant [17].

It is evident that parameter g of the two-body interactions as well as different
parameters of the linear potential will affect the motion of rogue matter waves in
BEC systems under consideration. For a best understanding, we have displayed in
Figs. 8.5 and 8.6 the evolution of dissipative non-autonomous first- and second-order
rogue matter waves, respectively. Different plots are generated with a negative value
of γ (t).
Management of Dissipative Rogue Matter Waves in BEC System Trapped
in Combined Time-Independent Harmonic Repulsive and Modulated Linear
Potentials As the last example, we consider a BEC system trapped in combined time-

we take the strength k(t) of the magnetic trap as k(t) = −2κ 2 (κ = 0) [21], and the
parameter g of the two-body interaction as [26]
The strength λ(t) of the linear potential is assumed to be of the form [30–32]
where σ, m, and ω are three real parameters. One can easily verify that by taking
γ (t) = −2κ [17], the integrable condition (8.9) will be satisfied. Integrating system

systems.
Computing the amplitude of the first- and second-order rogue matter waves asso-
ciated with the above set of data, we find that the wave amplitude is proportional
to
p(t) = 2g01 exp [3κt] .
Due to the presence of exp [nκt] in each of α(t), β(t), and T (t) [as √
we can see from
(8.25)], the fact that the wave amplitude is proportional to p(t) = 2g01 exp [3κt]
does not necessary lead to an increasing or decreasing in the wave amplitude.This
fact can be well seen from plots of Fig. 8.9. Plots of Fig. 8.9 reveal that the main
peak of the wave does not depend on the sign of parameter κ.

302 8 Rogue Matter Waves in Bose-Einstein Condensates …
A cubic distributed NLS equation with parabolic external potential which governs the
macroscopic wave-function of one-component BECs trapped in a parabolic external
potential is considered. Using the mapping method, we find the integrable conditions
and reduce this equation to a cubic-quintic NLS equation with the Raman-like term
producing the self-frequency shift. The baseband modulational instability, respon-
sible of the generation of chirped rogue waves is investigated and its criterion is
presented. Under this criterion, we build first- and second-order rational solutions
with nonlinear chirping for the mathematical models under consideration. These
solutions are used to study analytically the dynamics of chirped rogue matter waves
in BECs with a variable scattering length in an expulsive harmonic potential.
8.2.1 Introduction
Extensive theoretical and experimental works have been devoted on the dynamics
of atomic matter waves in BECs including dark/bright solitons [33–37, 37–41], and
breather solitons and rogue waves [42–45], as well as gap solitons, four-wave mixing,
and many other coherent structure modes [46–51, 51–54] . The above enumerated
studies are based on the GP equation with variable coefficients which under some
restrictions can be reduced to the classical integrable NLS equation [55–60]. Like
many other nonlinear media, BECs may support the propagation of chirped rogue
matter waves embedded on a nonzero CW backgrounds [61–66]. To the best of
our knowledge, no much studies have been devoted to the dynamics of chirped
8.2 Chirped Rogue Matter Waves in Bose-Einstein Condensates… 303
rogue matter waves [22] in BECs with variable scattering lengths trapped in an
external parabolic potential. Based on the distributed cubic GP equation and using
the phase-engineering technique (PET) [60, 67, 68], we investigate in the present
Section the dynamics of chirped rogue matter waves in BECs with a time-varying
atomic scattering length when both the two- and three-body interactions are taken
into account [67, 69–72].
Thus, the mathematical models to be studied in this Section is the following
distributed NLS equation with an external parabolic potential [37, 73–76]:
∂ψ(x, t) ∂ 2 ψ(x, t)
i + + 2a(t) |ψ(x, t)|2 ψ(x, t) − k(t)x 2 ψ(x, t) = 0. (8.26)
∂t ∂x2
Throughout this Section, Eq. (8.26) will be considered in the BECs context for which
ψ(x, t) is the normalized mean-field wave function, and time t and coordinate x are
measured in the same units as in the previous two chapters, while the cubic term,
proportional to 2a(t) plays the role of the two-body inter-atomic interactions [60,
77], and throughout this Section is assumed to be positive (a(t) > 0). Therefore,
k(t)x 2 will be the harmonic external potential with magnitude k(t). Next, we will
assumed that the stability conditions are satisfied so that the increase of the number
of atoms will not lead to the any collapse of the system under consideration [38, 43,
67, 69, 70, 78]. Under the above assumptions, Eq. (8.26) is suitable to describe the
control and management of BECs [60, 67, 77].

ψ(x, t) = √ (X, T ) exp i α(t)x 2 − 2θ (x, t) , (8.27)

where T = T (t), = (t) and α(t) are real functions to be determined, X ≡ x/(t),
and θ (x, t) is the phase imprint, related to the new complex wave function as
follows [67, 79]:

Next, we assume that α(t) = 0 and impose to the functional parameters T (t),
(t), and α(t) to satisfy the following differential system

so that the model equation (8.26) is converted into the following cubic-quintic deriva-
tive NLS equation without external potential
∂ ∂ 2 ∂
i + + 2a(t) ||2 + a1 ||4 + ia3 ||2 = 0. (8.33)
∂T ∂ X2 ∂X
In Eq. (8.33), the cubic nonlinearity 2a(t) is positive, the quintic nonlinearity a1
and parameter a3 of the self-frequency shift are of any sign. In the BECs context,
Eq. (8.33) can be used to describe BEC systems with both two- and three-body
inter-atomic interactions.
In the following, we focus our attention to the special case when the phase-imprint
parameters a1 and a3 are related as
where a2 is a free real parameter. We then find from Eqs. (8.30)–(8.32) that k(t)
and a(t) must satisfy the following constraint [integrable condition for the model
equation (8.26)]

which contains only one parameter, β. The cubic derivative term of Eq. (8.38) offsets
the modulation instability driven the three-body√interactions [67]. In the following,
we focus ourselves to the situation when |β| < 2/2 ≈ 0.70711, and set 2β 2 ≡ χ0
[69]. It follows from Eq. (8.27) that
since X ≡ x/(t), so that the total number of the condensate atoms under the trans-
formation (8.27) remains unchanged.
Baseband Modulational Instability Analysis Now, let us study the phenomenon
of the baseband modulational instability, a mechanism responsible of the generation
of rogue waves in nonlinear media [62–64, 84, 85]. This phenomenon implies that
the CW background may be unstable against perturbations with infinitesimally small
wavenumbers [62].
First of all, we note that Eq. (8.33) under condition (8.35) admits the CW solution
0 (X, T ) = ρ0 exp i 0 X + a2 ρ02 + a1 ρ04 − 20 T , (8.39)
where ρ0 and 0 are, respectively, the carrier amplitude and wavenumber and ω=
a2 ρ02 + a1 ρ04 − 20 is the angular frequency. Perturbing the CW solution (8.39) as
(X, T ) = 0 (X, T ) 1 + b1 exp [i (X − K T )] + b2∗ exp −i X − K ∗ T
(8.40)
and using the linear stability analysis, we arrive to the following perturbation linear
dispersion relation
2
2 K − 20 − a3 ρ02 − 2 + ρ02 2a2 + 4a1 − a32 ρ02 = 0, (8.41)
which defines complex angular frequency K in the limit → +0 only under the
condition that
2a2 + 4a1 − a32 ρ02 > 0. (8.42)
In the following, condition (8.42) will be referred to as the condition of the baseband
MI for the model equation. Under this condition, we derive the following growth
rate (gain) of the baseband MI
() = 2a2 + 4a1 − a32 ρ02 ρ02 − 2 , for 0 ≤ ≤ ρ0 2a2 + 4a1 − a32 ρ02 . (8.43)

Using Eq. (8.43), we have displayed in Fig. 8.10 baseband MI map in the (, ρ0 )
plane. This figure shows that the baseband MI occurs not at all values of ρ0 , and the
instability region expands as a1 increases.
Chirped Rogue Waves
Under the integrable condition (8.36) and condition (8.42) of the baseband MI, we
intend here to build exact chirped RW solutions√of the model equation (8.26). In the
special case when a1 = a32 /4 = 0 and a3 = −2 2a2 β = 0, first-order RW solutions
of Eq. (8.33) are found to be [82, 83]

Here, we employ the above exact chirped rogue wave solutions of the model equation
(8.26) to study analytically the evolution of chirped rogue matter waves in BEC with
time-varying atomic scattering length and external parabolic potential. Without the
loss of generality, we take the solution parameter a2 as a2 = 2. It is seen from the
found chirped rogue wave solutions
√ of the model equation Eq. (8.26) that the wave
amplitudes is proportional to a(t) and chirping δω(x, t) is free from the phase-
imprint parameter θ (x, t).
The following three special cases will be considered in our study:
(i) Case of BECs with time-independent expulsive potential : [39]
(ii) Case of BECs with a time-periodic modulation of the s-wave scattering length
[86]:
a(t) = r0 [1 + m sin(ωt)] with 0 < m < 1 and r0 > 0;
μ20
k(t) = − [1 − tanh (μ0 t/2)] , with r0 > 0.

For the integrable condition (8.36) to be satisfied for each of cases (i), (ii), and
(iii) we choose a(t) and k(t) as [86, 87]:

chirping for different numerical values of parameter β, β = 0 corresponding to the
BEC Peregrine soliton. Different plots show of Fig. 8.11 feature one hump and two
valleys around the center. We can see from plots of Figs. 8.11 and 8.12 how much
parameter β affect the wave motion. For example, parameter β produces an essential
skew angle relative to the ridge of the RW in the anti-clockwise [clockwise] direction
for β > 0 [for β < 0], and the skew angle becomes larger with the increase of |β|
(this is clearly seen from plots of the bottom panels). We can also see from plots of
Figs. 8.11 and 8.12 that the shape of both the RW and the corresponding chirping
does not change drastically for β = 0. Left panels of Figs. 8.11 and 8.12 reveal that
the BECs RWs as well as the corresponding chirping in the present case are embed-
ded on an increasing nonzero CW background. As we can see from plots of Fig. 8.12,
the chirping is localized in both time and space, and exhibits two dark-bright doubly
localized structures, with the same location as in the two valleys of the corresponding
first-order RW.
To investigate the effects of the amplitude parameter r0 on the wave evolution,
we show in Figs. 8.13 and 8.14 the formation of respectively the first-order and
the second-order rogue matter waves for different numerical values of the amplitude

and its width compresses when parameter r0 increases. Plots of Fig. 8.14 show that
depending on the numerical value of the amplitude parameter r0 , the second-order
RW can either remain a single RW or split into two to three first-order RWs whose
width decreases with the increase of r0 . It is also seen from plots of Figs. 8.13 and
8.14 that the wave amplitude increases with the increase of r0 .
To show the effect of parameter β on the dynamics of the BEC second-order rogue
matter waves and the corresponding chirping in the present case, we display in Figs.
8.15 and 7.16 the dynamics of the second-order BEC RW and the corresponding
chirping associated with the exact rogue wave solution (8.52) and chirping (8.53)
for different numerical values of β. It is seen from different plots that β has almost
the same effects on the second-order BEC RWs as on the first-order ones and the
corresponding chirping: it does not impact dramatically the wave shape, but produces
a skew angle relative to the RW’s ridge or chirping’s ridge in the anti-clockwise
[clockwise] direction for β > 0 [β < 0]. Plots of Fig. 8.16 reveal that the chirping

Fig. 8.16 Spatiotemporal plot (left panels) and top-view distributions (right panels) of the frequency
chirp associated with the second-order RW solution (8.52), given by Eq. (8.53), for k = −λ2 /4 and
a(t) taken as per Eq. (8.55), cf. Fig. 8.12 for the first-order RWs. To generate different plots, we
have used the following numerical data: r0 = 0.25, λ = 0.02, and three values of β, viz., β = −0.7
(a, d), β = 0 (b, e), and β = 0.7.(c, f). Reprint from Ref. [10], Copyright 2022, with permission

associated with the second-order BEC RWs is localized both in time and space.
Comparing plots of Figs. 7.15 and 8.16, we find that the second-order RW and the
corresponding chirping exhibit respectively four valleys and four dark-bright doubly
localized structures, located at the same position.
Case (ii): Evolution of Chirped Rogue Matter Waves in BECs with Time-
Periodic Modulation of the Scattering Length As the second example, we consider
a BEC system with a temporally periodic variation of the s-wave scattering length
[86]. For this special case, we assumed the parameter a(t) of the two-body interac-
tions to be given as

Middle panels: Spatiotemporal evolution of rogue matter wave for the same rational solution with
r0 = 0.25, β = 1/3, and three values of parameter m, viz., m = 0.1 (d); m = 0.4 (e); m = 0.8 (f).

(8.36) and reads

To analyze how parameters a(t) and k(t) given by respectively Eq. (8.55) and
(8.56) modify the dynamics of the first- and second-order chirped BEC RWs, we
display respectively in Figs. 8.17 and 8.18 and 8.19 the evolution of first- and second-
order RWs and the distribution of the corresponding frequency chirps for different
numerical values of parameters β (top panels), m (middle panels), and r0 (bottom
panels), β = 0 corresponding to the BEC Peregrine solitons of the standard NLS
equation. Different plots show that the first- and the second-order RWs and the
corresponding chirping are embedded on a modulated increasing nonzero CW back-
ground. Plots of these three figures show that β produces a skew angle relative to the

ridge of the RWs and their corresponding chirping, in the clockwise [anti-clockwise]
direction for β < 0 [β > 0]. It is clearly seen from different plots that the chirping
associated to first- and second-order RWs exhibit respectively two- and four-peak
dark-bright doubly localized structures, located at the same positions where valleys
of the corresponding RWs are located. Plots of the middle and bottom panels of Figs.
8.17 and 8.18 demonstrate how much the amplitude and the structure of the first-
and second-order RWs are affected by parameters m and r0 ; for example, the wave
amplitude increases with the increase in each of m and r0 , and the best structure of
the BEC RWs is obtained for small values of m and large values of r0 ; therefore, m
and r0 have the same effect on the waves’ amplitudes and opposite effect on their
structure.
Case (iii): Chirped Rogue Waves in Under the Action of the Scattering Length
and Expulsive Parabolic Potential Subjected to the Stepwise Temporal Modu-
lation As our last example, we consider a BEC system with time-varying scattering
length trapped in an expulsive parabolic potential subjected to the stepwise temporal
modulation. For this example, we choose a stepwise modulation profile defined as

will increase with the increase in the values of either μ0 or r0 .
To analyze the effects of parameters a(t) and k(t) as well as that of parameters β on
the BEC rogue matter waves and the corresponding chirping in the case of a stepwise
temporal modulation profile, we show for different numerical values of r0 , μ0 , and β

standard NLS equation. It is seen from plots of the middle and bottom panels of Figs.
8.20 and 8.21 that the first- and second-order rogue matter waves propagate on top
of a kink-shaped increasing nonzero CW background. Different plots of Figs. 8.20,
8.21, and 8.22 reveal that parameter β of the delayed nonlinear response does not
strongly affect the shape, but produces a skew angle relative to the ridge of the RWs
and that of the corresponding chirping in the clockwise [anti-clockwise] direction for
β < 0 [β > 0]. It is seen from plots of the middle and bottom panels of Figs. 8.20 and
8.21 that the wave amplitude increases with the increase in either r0 or μ0 , and that
depending on the numerical values of parameters μ0 and r0 , the first-order [second-
order] BEC rogue matter wave is composed of one hump and two valleys [features
three humps] located around the center; moreover, the hump width decreases with
the increase of either μ0 or r0 . The best structure of the first- and second-order BEC
rogue matter waves, as we can see from plots of the middle and bottom panels of Figs.
8.20 and 8.21, is obtained with small values of μ0 and large values of r0 ; moreover,
the wave width decreases with the increase of μ0 and r0 . Plots of Fig. 8.22 reveal that

In the case of a vanishing CW background, that is, when the background amplitude

φ j = ηε j / g cosh θ exp (−iϕ2 ) , with θ = η (x + ξ ) − θ0 , j = 1, 2, (9.11)

Now, let us consider the situation of vanishing soliton amplitudes, A1s,2s = 0 (for
example, η = 0). In this special case, solution (9.2) reduces to the Stokes wave (alias
CW),
(φ1 , φ2 )T = (A1 , A2 )T exp [iϕ] ,
solution (9.2) does not vanish. We then conclude that condition (9.10) of the XPM
interaction implies that coefficients C1 and C2 depend on amplitudes A1 and A2 of
the CW.
For a better understanding of the behavior of solution (9.2), it is relevant to start
with the special case when each soliton component will be embedded in its own CW
background, that is, C1 = C2 = 0. In this special case, solution (9.2) reduces to
with
a = −i A L − L /D, b = A L + L /D, and c = A2 − |L|2 /D.
It is well seen that θ2 and ϕ2 are absent from expressions (9.12a) and (9.12b), and the
two components share a common shape. Solution (9.2) in the present special case
(C1 = C2 = 0) is then similar to that for the one-component BEC.
If M I = 0, equation (9.12a) leads to the total norm of the soliton component of
the solution, which coincides with the norm above the CW level:

where
= −(1/2)ηM I 1 + B 2 t + Bθ10 + ϕ10 and B = M R /M I .
for asymptotic values of the fields. One can easily verify that integral (9.14) is free
of , meaning that the total norm of the soliton is a conserved quantity.
If now M I = 0, it is obvious that the soliton speed vanishes and the CW back-
ground completely traps the soliton [2]. In particular, setting ξ = −k and A2 > η2
yields M I = 0, and W in solution (9.12a) turns to
with
θ1 ≡ (1/2)ηM R t − θ10 and ϕ1 ≡ M R (x − kt) + ϕ10 ,
where M R = A2 − η2 , and θ10 and ϕ10 are free real constants. It is evident that
expression (9.15) is periodic in variable x with period = 2π/M R , and aperiodic
in time t. For a better understanding of the modulational instability development
provided by the above solution, we assume that
is a small amplitude of the initial perturbation that triggers the onset of the MI
and linearize solution (9.12a) at the initial time t = 0 with respect to ε, taking Eq.
(9.15) into account. We then obtain the following CW with a small modulational
perturbation added to it
where
ρ ≡ A2 − 2η2 − 2iηM R /A2 with |ρ|2 = 1,
χ ≡ 4ηM R (M R − iη) /A3 .
Carrying out direct numerical simulations of the underlying equations (9.1) demon-
strates that the evolution of initial configuration (9.17) closely follows the exact
solution provided by Eqs. (9.12a) and (9.15) [2].
9.1.2 Results
It is important to remember that the above results have been obtained under the
Manakov integrable conditions a11 = a22 = a12 which, in reality, may not be exactly
satisfied. Since the difference of the scattering lengths in a BEC mixture of two
different hyperfine states of the same atomic species is very small, we can still use
the Manakov’s system as a good approximation. As an illustration,we have set
and solve numerical the coupled GP system (9.1). The obtained results yield the
picture of the modulational instability development displayed in Fig. 9.1. Comparing
the exact solution when a11 = a22 = a12 demonstrates that the two solutions are
virtually indistinguishable.
Now, we consider solution (9.2) in a more general situation when (|A1 | + |A2 |)
(|C1 | + |C2 |) > 0. Under condition (9.10) of the XPM interaction, it is possible

to explicitly study the effects of the XPM interaction between the plane waves in
the two-component BEC. In this general case, for condition (9.10) to be satisfied,
√ √
we set C1 = 4 g A2 C and C2 = −4 g A1 C, where C = 0 is an arbitrary complex
constant. To analyze the following two representative situations in detail, we further
fixe ξ = −k in solution (9.2).
(i) Case A2 = η2
In the present case, we have 4 A21 + A22 = A2s1 + A2s2 and solution (9.2) can be
written as follows
√
φ j = − exp (iϕ) A j tanh (θ2 /2) + (−1) j 2 A3− j cosh−1 (θ2 /2) exp (iϕ3 ) ,
(9.19)
where
θ2 ≡ η (x − kt) + θ10 , ϕ ≡ kx + η2 /4 − k 2 /2 t, ϕ3 ≡ η2 t/8 + ϕ10 ,
and θ10 and ϕ10 are free real constants. For solution (9.19), the density distribution
is found to be
|φ1 |2 + |φ2 |2 = A22 + A21 1 + sech2 (θ2 /2) .
As it is clearly seen from Fig. 9.2. solution (9.19) appears as a superposition of bright
and dark solitons, produced by the action of XPM. In this figure, we can see that
the solution with A1 A2 = 0 is a complex consisting of bright and dark solitons in

the first
and second species, or vice versa. It follows from condition A2 = η2 that
|η| = 4g A21 + A22 ; this means that the soliton width can be controlled by the
amplitude of the CW background. Also, we can observe from plots of Fig. 9.2 a shift
of the soliton’s peak due to the action of XPM.

that W2 → 0 in the limit θ2 → ±∞, and W1 → W in the limit θ2 → +∞, and W1 →
0 in the limit θ2 → −∞. From the form of solution (9.12a) and expression (9.15),
we can then conclude that solution (9.21) describes partial modulational instability,
since the MI growth rate is restrained in the limit of θ2 → −∞, as illustrated by
Fig. 9.3. However, when the integrable condition a11 = a12 = a22 is not satisfied, the
numerical solution of the model equation (9.1) will conspicuously differ from the
exact solution (9.21), as we can see from Fig. 9.4.

Finally, let us consider solution (9.2) in the general case. It then follows from Eqs.
(9.4) and (9.5) that the solution contains terms with different velocities,
leading to splitting of the soliton part of the solution on top of the continuous wave
background in two wave packets, high-frequency one and low-frequency one, as we
can see from plots of Fig. 9.5 where exact analytical solution is obtained under the
integrable condition with ai j = 1. Also, we can observe from plots of Fig. 9.6 that
plots generated with the use of exact solution are compared to those obtained with
the numerical solution of Eqs. (9.1), with the normalized scattering lengths chosen
as in Eq. (9.18) when the integrable condition is not satisfied. It is clearly seen from
plots of Fig. 9.6 that the soliton part of the numerical solution, built on top of the
continuous wave background, also splits in two wave packets, stable high-frequency
and unstable low-frequency ones.
We have considered a coupled GP equation which describes binary BECs. The condi-
tion of the XPM interaction is presented in an analytical form. Under the integrable
condition that leads to a Manakov system, exact analytical soliton solutions are
presented, in the form of a soliton embedded on a non-vanishing continuous wave
background. We found that under the integrable condition, the exact soliton solution
can be used to describe the MI development which in physical applications can be

used to generate a soliton train. We also found that even if the integrable condition
is not satisfied, the wave complex can be generated as a robust one. We have shown
that interaction between two continuous wave amplitudes gives rise to a phase dif-
ference between the components and can cause splitting of the soliton and formation
of a complex pattern. Although our study was carried out for positive g, it is impor-
tant to note that the model system (9.1) is also integrable in the case of negative g
when either a11 = a22 = a12 , corresponding to a binary self-repulsive condensate,
or a11 = a22 = −a12 , corresponding to a mixture of two self-repulsive condensates
that attract each other [2–5].
The model to be studied here pertains to a two-component BEC, having equal atomic
masses and attractive interactions in both components [7, 8], trapped in an external
HO potential. The evolution of the mean-field wave functions of the setting is thus
described by a coupled 1D GP equation which, in the scaled form, can be written as

where ω j and ω⊥ stand for respectively the frequencies of the trapping potential
in the longitudinal and transverse directions. Throughout this Section,√time t and

respectively.
Next, we assume that the confining and expulsive signs of the potential correspond
to λ2 < 0 and λ2 > 0, respectively, and set

It is clearly seen that the nonlinearity in the coupled GP equations (9.24) takes
the Manakov’s form [1], and therefore is an integrable system. In the following, we

focus our attention to the case of positive time-varying parameter g(t) of interaction;
this corresponds to the attractive sign of the SPM and XPM interactions. Under the
above special integrable condition imposed on g(t) and λ(t), system (9.24) admits
a representation in the form of the Lax pair,

which shows that the spectral parameter ζ (t) must be taken from the following
nonisospectral condition
ζ (t) = μ exp − (t)dt ; (9.28)
here, μ is a hidden complex constant and (t) is a free function of time, which can
be used to define the trap strength λ(t) as follows

Thus, the coupled 1D GP system (9.24) under the integrable condition (9.30) will
be integrable. In the special case of a time-independent trap, λ(t) = const ≡ c1 , Eq.
(9.30) admits the special solution g(t) = exp [c1 t]. In what follows, we assume the
integrable condition (9.30) to be satisfied. It is important to note that if the integrable
condition (9.30) is slightly violated, the result will depend on the accumulation of the
deviation from the integrability over a characteristic time scale, T , of the dynamical
regime. In other words, if the deviation from the integrability is characterized by
difference λ(t) from the value given in Eq. (9.30), the system will remain close to
the integrability under the following “nearly integrable condition”

As our first example, we consider the case of BEC systems with time-decaying
strength g(t) of the interaction, and adopt the dependence of the nonlinearity coef-
ficient having the form
g(t) = 0.5 exp [−0.25t] . (9.33)
For the nonlinearity parameter given in Eq. (9.33), Eq. (9.30) renders the external HO
potential time-independent and expulsive, with λ2 = 1/16 > 0. The corresponding
density profile obtained with the use of the exact analytical solution, given by Eqs.
(9.29) and (9.32a), (9.32b), is depicted in Figs. 9.7a, b. Its counterpart produced with
the use of the numerical solution of Eq. (9.24) is displayed in Figs. 9.7c, d. From
plots of these figures, we observe perfect agreement between the analytical and
numerical solutions. This agreement implies the stability of the analytical solution.

densate will quickly spread out, as we can see from Fig. 9.8a, b generated with the

trapped in a time-independent expulsive trap, we conclude that the first one, adjusted
to the integrable system based on Eqs. (9.24) and (9.30), is more long-lived.
The stability of the exact soliton solution produced by Eqs. (9.24) and (9.30) can
also be confirmed by adding random noise to the simulations. Example of obtained
results are showed in Figs. 9.13, 9.14 and 9.15. As we can see from these figures,
the stability of the evolving condensates is not broken by the white noise. These
figures also reveal that the stability of the evolving condensates depend neither on
the particular correlation structure of the noise nor on its spectral width. This conclu-
sion confirms the robustness of a two-component condensate in the time-dependent
expulsive HO potential in comparison with its counterpart in the time-independent
trap. These last results indicate that the life span of the two-component BEC with the
time-modulated attractive interactions trapped in the time-dependent HO potential
can be increased. The findings of this Section may be realized experimentally in
condensates composed of 39 K [9], 85 Rb [8], and 7 Li [10] atoms.
9.2.3 Conclusion

Abstract The present Chapter deals generally with more general nonintegrable
models, and particularly, with higher-order GP equations, that may model the dynam-
ics of higher-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates. These models are treated by
means of both the variational approximation (VA) and direct computational simula-
tions. We mainly focus our attention on two- and three-dimensional condensates with
time modulated nonlinearity. Effects of various parameters of the model equations
on the dynamics of matter wave solitons are investigated.

The mathematical model used in this Section is the following mean-field GP equation
without an external trapping potential, that describes single-particle wave function
in its usual form [9]:

i = − ∇ + g |ψ(r,t)|2 ψ(r,t) with g = , (10.1)

where as and m are respectively the atomic scattering length and atomic mass, and
g is the strength of the two-body inter-atomic interactions which is assumed to be
time modulated has the form
g = g0 + g1 sin (χ t) . (10.2)
In Eq. (10.2), g0 and g1 are respectively the amplitude of the dc and ac parts, while χ
is the ac-modulation frequency. In the following, we demonstrate in some detail that
the trapping potential may be replaced, in some special situation, by a combination
of the temporal modulation of the nonlinearity coefficient (10.2) with the dc and ac
parts as in Eq. (10.4).
Next, we introduce the following transformation
= 2gn 0 /, t = t, and r = r 2m/, (10.3)
where n 0 is the largest value of the condensate density. It is evident that employing
the transformation (10.3) with the model equation (10.1) and omitting the primes
lead to the following scaled equation for isotropic states in which only the radial
coordinate is kept:

i =− + ψ(r, t) − [λ0 + λ1 sin (ωt)] |ψ(r, t)|2 ψ(r, t),

(10.4)
where D is the spatial dimension (D = 2 or 3), λ0 ≡ −g0 / (), λ1 ≡ −g1 / (),
and ω ≡ χ / . It is important to notice that positive [negative] λ0 in Eq. (10.4)
correspond to the self-focusing [self-defocusing] nonlinearity. In what follows, we
set, without loss of generality, |λ0 | = 1 so that λ0 remains a sign-defining parameter.
We start our investigation by applying the VA to Eq. (10.4) [1, 7, 10–14]. For this
purpose, we should use the following Lagrangian density generating Eq. (10.4):
i ∂ψ ∗ ∂ψ ∗ ∂ψ 2 1
L (ψ) = ψ − ψ − + λ(t) |ψ|4 , (10.5)

where

and the (∗ ) stands for the complex conjugation. Next, we choose the variational ansatz
for the wave function as the Gaussian [10]

ψG (r, t) = A(t) exp − 2 + ib(t)r 2 + iδ(t), (10.6)
2a (t) 2
where A, a, b, and δ are the time-varying amplitude, width, chirp, and overall phase,
respectively.
Following the approach used in Ref. [12], we insert the ansatz (10.6) in the
Lagrangian density (10.5) and calculate the respective effective Lagrangian. We
then arrive to

In the two-dimensional case, theoretical studies are done by means of both the VA and
the averaging method, applied to the GP equation; theoretical results are confirmed by
direct numerical simulations. First of all, we note that the application of the averaging
method to the 2D equation (10.4) without using VA in the case of the high-frequency
modulation is possible [1, 6, 15, 16].
For the two-dimensional GP equation, we calculate from Eq. (10.7) the effective
Lagrangian and arrive to

where, a is a function of a slow time scale and δa is a rapidly varying function with
zero mean value. Under all these assumptions, we can integrate Eq. (10.12) using
the Kapitsa averaging method [1, 6, 15]. Inserting Eq. (10.13) into Eq. (10.12), we
obtain, after straightforward manipulations, the following system of ODEs for a and
δa:

showing that the condensate remains self-confined if

the norm exceeds the critical value). The above asymptotic results guarantee the
stability of the behavior of the condensate for any a, solution of Eq. (10.16), the
collapse and spreading out being ruled out if
√

> 0. (10.18)
The stability of the FP (10.19) can be easily checked from the calculation of an
eigenfrequency of small oscillations around it.
Now, we turn to the direct numerical simulations of Eq. (10.12). Carrying out
direct numerical/computational simulations on Eq. (10.12), we obtain results that
are in exact agreement with those provided by the averaging method. In other words,
we obtain that stable states with α(t) performing small oscillations around point
(10.19) [1, 15]. We ask ourselves if the same results can be obtained in the 3D
situation. The answer to this question, as we will see in what follows, is no!
In 3D situation, we also needs, as in the above analysis, an approximate form of
Eq. (10.16) valid when the norm is closed to the critical value (that is, in the limit
→ 0), and for large enough ω. The obtained approximate form of Eq. (10.16)

Next, we employ the multiscale approach for deriving the amplitude equation for
slow variations of the field. The approach consists of expanding the solution in a
power series of 1/ω. For this purpose, we introduce slow temporal variables Tk as

It then follows from the averaged equation that the collapse can be stopped by the
rapid modulations of the nonlinear term in the two-dimensional GP equation. Com-
paring Eq. (10.31) with its counterpart (10.20) derived by means of averaging equa-
tion (10.12), we find that when numerical coefficients in the second terms are different
due to the different profiles of the Gaussian and TS, then both approaches lead to the
same behavior near the collapse threshold.
Further, we estimate the FP as per numerical simulations performed in work
[22] where the following parameters were used, λ = 1 + at 0 < t < T , and λ =
1 − at T < t < 2T with the following numerical values: T = = 0.1, N /(2π ) =
11.726/(2π ), with the critical number Nc = 11.68/(2π ). Using these numerical
values, we obtain ac = 0.49, which agrees with the value ac ≈ 0.56 produced by
computational numerical simulations.

It is important to notice that based on representation (10.22) for the wave function,
one can also apply the averaging procedure directly to the Hamiltonian of Eq. (10.4).
The averaged Hamiltonian, which can be use to explain the possibility to arrest the
collapse in the presence of the rapid modulation of the nonlinearity strength [23], is
then found to be

We note that, if a given field configuration has compressed itself to a spot with size
ρ, where A is ∼ ℵ, the conservation of norm N yields the relationship
ℵ2 ρ D ∼ N , (10.34)
where D is the space dimension. For the strongest collapse-driving and collapse-
arresting terms, the same estimate H− and H+ in the Hamiltonian yields

If we employ relation (10.34) to eliminate the amplitude from Eq. (10.35), we con-
clude that H± asymptotically scale as ρ −5 in the limit ρ → 0 (case of the catastrophic
self-compression); depending on details of the configuration, the collapse may there-
fore be arrested. It is important to note that in the 3d situation, the collapse cannot
be prevented. Indeed, in the limit ρ → 0, the collapse-driving term in the 3D case
diverges as ρ −9 , while the collapse-arresting one scales ∼ ρ −8 .

Equation (10.37) for the wave width in the 3D situation is different from its counter-

with quasiperiodic oscillations, avoiding the collapse or decay.
The corresponding stability region in the parameter plane (ω/π, ), generated with
the numerical solution is small, as we can see Fig. 10.3. Here, we can also see that for
maintaining the stability, the numerical values of the frequency and amplitude of the
ac component must be very large. It is important to note that for frequencies above
106 π , the condensate width a(t) becomes very small in the course of the evolution,
meaning that the collapse may happen in the solution of the full 3D equation (10.4).
Using the VA, we found that the stability is predicted only when
< 9. If
≥ 9,
the VA predicts solely the collapse.
Because the frequency ω is large enough in the stability region as we can see in
Fig. 10.3, we also apply the averaging method to this. For this aim, we follow the

√ case of negative
and with large enough amplitude
only one property (result). In the
of the ac component ( > (4/ 3) |

takes place instead of spreading out. Other results obtained from Eq. (10.17) in the
2D with the use of an equation similar to the averaged equation (10.41) are wrong
(see Figs. 10.2 and 10.3). In particular, analyzing in details the rhs of Eq. (10.41),
we see that it predict neither a stable FP for negative

this contradicts what is revealed by the numerical simulations of Eq. (10.38). This

is showed in Fig. 10.3 by many star points. It is evident that as a function of the
frequency ω, the minimum value of necessary for the collapse increases with the
increase in ω. The numerical simulations have also showed that the collapse in the
case
> 0 cannot be predicted.
The mathematical model used for investigating stable vortex modes for BECs with
a spatially modulated attractive and repulsive nonlinearities trapped in a harmonic
potential is the two-dimensional GP equation whose scaled form reads
∂ψ
i = −∇ 2 + g(r ) |ψ|2 + V (r ) ψ. (10.43)
∂t
Physically, the GP equation (10.43) describes the BECs macroscopic wave func-
tion ψ = ψ(r, θ, t), ∇ 2 is the two-dimensional Laplacian, and g(r ) and V (r ) are
respectively the nonlinearity coefficient (alias strength of the two-body inter-atomic
interactions) and the strength of the external harmonic potential, functions of the
spatial radial coordinate r .
To present exact analytical solutions of Eq. (10.43), we use the following ansatz
in which φ(r ), θ, S, and μ are respectively the stationary wave function (spatial-
varying amplitude), the azimuthal angle, an integer vorticity, and the chemical poten-
tial. Imposing to Eq. (10.44) to satisfy the model equation (10.43) yields the following
ODE for φ(r )
d 2φ 1 dφ S2
μφ = − − + g(r )φ 3 + + V (r ) φ. (10.45)

(where g0 = is a free real constant accounting for the nonlinearity strength), we seek
special solution of equation (10.45) in the following form

φ(r ) = ρ(r )U [R(r )] , with R(r ) = . (10.47)

It follows from Eqs. (10.46) and (10.47) that the nonlinearity functional parameter
g(r ) as well as R(r ) do not change sign; therefore, ρ(r ) has a constant sign. For
10.2 Stable Vortex Modes in Two-Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates 365
g(0)g (+∞) to be a finite quantity, we must have ρ(r ) ∼ r −a , with a ≥ 1/3, and
ρ(+∞) = 0. Under these conditions on ρ(r ), g(r ) will be bounded and the integral
(10.47) that defines R(r ) will converge. Asking now that equation (10.47) satisfies
the ODE (10.45), we find that ρ(r ) must be a nonzero solution of the ODE
ρ S2 E

and U (R) must be any solution of the elliptic ordinary differential equation (EODE)

where E is an arbitrary real constant.
In the special case when E = 0 and g0 < 0, Eq. (10.48) is solvable. In the case of
the harmonic potential V = kr 2 , the solution ρ(r ) of Eq. (10.48) can be written in
terms of the Whittaker’s M and W functions [26, 27] as

The above restrictions on ρ(r ) require μ < μ0 = 2 (1 + |S|) k and c1 c2 > 0. In
the absence of the trap (k = 0), ρ degenerates to

with μ < μ0 = 0, where I S and K S are respectively the modified Bessel and Hankel
functions, and constants C3 and C4 satisfy the condition c3 c4 > 0. It is evident that at
the limit r → 0, we have ρ(r ) ∼ r −[S] , leading to g(r ) ∼ r 6|S|−2 and R(r ) ∼ r 2|S| at
the limit r → 0; moreover ρ(r ) → ∞ as r → ∞. Hence, the respective nonlinearity
is localized and bounded, and R(r ) is also bounded. For the boundary conditions

is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind.
As we can see from Eq. (10.50), U (R) ∼ R at the limit R = 0; this implies that
at the limit r → 0, the amplitude of the exact VS is ρU ∼ r |S| , as it should be. We
have thus showed that for given parameters μ and S and nonlinearity strength g0 (and
k, in the case when the trap is taken into account), one can build an infinite number
of exact vortex-soliton solutions with n/2 bright rings surrounding the vortex core,
as it is clearly seen in Fig. 10.5. It is important here to note that these VS solutions
share the same chemical potential, but their energies increase with the increase of
even number n.
10.2 Stable Vortex Modes in Two-Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates 367
Now, let us we consider the case of the repulsive nonlinearity, g0 > 0, and assume that
the system is confined by a harmonic trap. For the EODE (10.49) to admit elliptic-
function solutions, we must take the free constant E from the condition E > 0; under
this restriction, Eq. (10.48) becomes a nonlinear equation, which in general can be
solved only in a numerical form. To build the VS solutions in the case of repulsive
nonlinearity, we require ρ ∼ r −|S| (for S = 0) at r → 0 so that at the limit r → 0,
the nonlinear term of Eq. (10.48) may be neglected. Under these assumptions, ρ(r )

This means that in the case of repulsive nonlinearity, there exists no more than a finite
number of the VS modes (if for example n max < 2, there will not be VS mode). The
number of the numerical VS solutions versus μ is depicted in Fig. 10.6a. As we can
see from plots of Fig. 10.6a, the cutoff value μ0 of the chemical potential in the case
of repulsive nonlinearity is the same as that for the exact VS solutions built when the
attractive nonlinearity was considered. It is also seen from plots of Fig. 10.6a that the
number of VS solutions jumps at points

Assuming r0 to be small enough√in comparison with the spatial scale of the external

φ(r ) = [μ − V (0)] /gr .

The solution to Eq. (10.49) in this special case is then given by Eqs. (10.51) and
(10.52), where B R must be replaced by B R + K (E/B 2 − 1), and n = 1, 3, 5, . . .
for the case of repulsive nonlinearity, so that make φ(∞) = 0. In the same way,
we can build VS solutions in the case of attractive nonlinearity. Examples of found
fundamental solutions in the case of repulsive two-tier nonlinearity are displayed in
Fig. 10.8.
Next,we carry out the linear stability analysis and direct simulations to verify the
stability of the built VS solutions. By means of the azimuthal modulational instability
(AMI) in the case of the attractive nonlinearity in the absence of the trap potential,
we lead to the breaking up and the collapse of higher-order VS solutions. The lowest-
order exact VS solutions with n = 2 are found to be stable when the harmonic trap
is present, if μ → μ0 , the wave amplitude remaining large as we can see from plots
of Fig. 10.9. Similar result has not yet been reported when either S = 1 or S < 2
[29–31].
Under the action of the both repulsive nonlinearity and external harmonic trap,
our numerical simulations showed that VS solutions can be stable for every n at
which they exist, within some region of values of μ , as we can clearly see from
Fig. 10.6b. Also, as we can see from plots of Figs. 10.6b and 10.10, VS solutions
with fewer rings may be less stable than their counterparts with the largest number of
rings. The numerical results plotted in Fig. 10.10a reveal that unstable VS solutions
with n = 2 either exhibit a quasistability or split into vortices with lower topological
charges, which periodically break up and recover the axial symmetry. This finding is
similar to what was already reported in the case of the attractive nonlinearity [29–32].
Nevertheless, unstable VS solutions with n = 4, 6, . . . , as one can clearly see from
plots of Fig. 10.10b, c, ultimately evolve into vortices located close to zero-amplitude
points.

In the context of nonlinear optical fibers, the two modes φ−1 and φ+1 represent either
different wavelengths or two orthogonal polarizations. a = ν/5 and a = −ν/3 are
associated with the particular cases of respectively two linear polarizations and two
circular polarizations. In system (11.7), the two nonlinear terms, proportional to
11.2 Exact Analytical One-, Two-, and Three-Component Soliton Solutions 377
(ν + a) and (ν − a), account for respectively the SPM and XPM interactions of the
two waves. The modulation instability of continuous wave states in system (11.7)
under the condition ν + a = 0 (XPM-coupled system) has been studied in detail [9].
In the special case when ν = −1 and |a| < 1, the nonlinearity in system (11.7) will be
self-defocusing, and the single NLS equation would show no MI. The XPM-coupled
system (11.7) in the special case when ν = −1 and |a| < 1 of course will give rise
to MI; this means that the XPM interaction is stronger than SPM interaction, that is,
0 < a < 1 [10].
Following Ieda et al. [11], we here focus our attention, for simplicity, to the special
case of a physically possible integrable model (with a = ν = 1), which corresponds
to c2 = c0 leading to 2g0 = −g2 > 0. For condition 2g0 = −g2 > 0 to be satisfied,
we impose the following conditions on the scattering lengths
3ca0 a2
a⊥ = , a0 a2 (a2 − a0 ) > 0. (11.8)
2a0 + a2
It is important to note that it is also possible to derive and study the stability of exact
analytical soliton solutions of both polar and FM types in the non-integrable case
a
= ν. Following the approach elaborated by Zaidong et al. [1], we present in the
following several soliton species and results for their stability.
Linearizing system (11.3) about the solution (11.9) leads to the following BdG equa-
tions for small perturbations φ−1 and φ0 :

∂t ∂x2

∂t ∂x
For the soliton solution (11.9), a = 1 so that system (11.11)–(11.12) is a system
of decoupled BdG equations. Therefore, solution (11.9) is stable against small per-
turbations. As we well know, envelop soliton solution of the single standard NLS
equation is always stable, so that solution (11.9) cannot be unstable against small
perturbations of φ+1 .
By setting φ±1 (x, t) = 0, we obtain the following simplest polar soliton for ν = +1
and μ < 0

The parametric gain that comes from the x-dependent term (last term) of Eq. (11.14)

which illustrates the qualitative mechanism of the parametric instability. One can
easily show that the zero equilibrium point (χ−1 , χ+1 ) = (0, 0) of the linear equations
(11.16) is unstable through a double eigenvalue in the region of a < −1/4.
By means of direct numerical simulations of Eqs. (11.3), we have checked the sta-
bility of the single-component polar soliton (11.13). In these numerical simulations,
we have added at time t = 0 a small random perturbation with values distributed uni-
formly between 0 and 0.03 in components φ+1 and φ−1 . The result of this numerical
investigation showed that the polar soliton (11.13) is always unstable, as shown in

to the case of Eq. (11.14), this instability can be well understood by studying Eq.

illustrates the qualitative mechanism of the parametric instability:
dχ0
i = μ (1 + 2a) χ0 ± 2aχ0∗ . (11.20)

It is obvious that the zero equilibrium point χ0 = 0 of Eq. (11.20) for either sign ± is
unstable in the region a < −1/4. Following the same way as for the one-component
polar soliton (11.13), we can test the stability of the soliton (11.18) by means of
direct numerical simulations of Eqs. (11.3) with a small uniformly distributed random
perturbation added to the φ0 component. This numerical study shows that the two-
component polar soliton (11.18) is unstable in the region of |a| ≥ 1, as shown in
Fig. 11.2, and it is stable at |a| < 1 (the corresponding figure is not displayed here).
It is important to notice here that the above results found numerically on the
soliton stability can be explained analytically in the special case when a = +1.
Indeed, writing the perturbation in its canonical form
where σ stands for the instability growth rate, we arrive at the following differential
system for the eigenfunctions U1 and U2

becomes an explicitly solvable and produces a series of zero eigenvalue at a =

point a0 = 0 when σ = 0. The zero crossings at other points an = n (n + 3) /4 with
vanishing σ implies stability changes. In particular, at the critical point a1 = 1, the
two-component polar soliton (11.18) is destabilized as observed in the simulations;

Fig. 11.5 The evolution of the three-component polar soliton generated with the use of the exact
analytical soliton solution given by Eq. (11.25) with initially added random perturbations. Parame-
ters used here are ν = 1, μ+1 = −1.21, μ−1 = −0.25, and a = 0.5 in (a, c) or a = −0.5 in (b, d).
In cases (a) and (b), the random perturbation was added to the φ0 component, and in cases (c) and
(d) it was added to components φ±1 . The curves labelled by 1, 2, 3, and 4 represent, respectively,
the evolution of norms N+1 , N−1 , N0 , and N defined by Eqs. (11.17) and (11.5). Reprint from Ref.

Each of critical points an with n > 1 implies additional destabilizations through the
emergence of new unstable eigenmodes of the already unstable soliton.
It is important to notice here that the destabilization of the two-component polar
soliton at a = −1, observed in the simulations, can be explained by means of the
bifurcation theory.
where ε is a free real parameter to be taken as −1 < ε < +1. Exactly as the above
found one- and two-component polar solitons, the three-component polar solitons
(11.23) contains one parameter, the chemistry parameter μ < 0 and does not explic-
itly depend on parameter a.
Another three-component polar soliton solution, independent of a and containing
one parameter, μ is found to be
√ exp [−iμt] T

Comparing the three-component polar soliton solutions (11.23) and (11.24), it is seen
that the two solutions differ by the sign of the φ±1 components and a phase shift of
π/2 in the φ0 component.
It is possible to build another family of one parameter three-component polar
soliton solutions which explicitly depend on parameter a. An example of such species
of three-component polar solitons is found to be

where μ±1 are two free negative parameters to be taken from the condition
√ √ 2 2μ
−μ+1 + −μ−1 + = 0. (11.26)

It follows from Eq. (11.26) and the negativity of the chemical potential μ that ν + a >
0, for example, ν = −1, corresponding to repulsive spin-independent interaction.
Solving Eq. (11.26) in the chemical potential μ, and inserting the result in Eq.
solution (11.25), we find that the three-component polar soliton solution (11.25)
contains exactly two free parameters, μ−1 and μ+1 . On the other hand, each of the
two three-component polar soliton solutions (11.23) and (11.24) also contains exactly
two free parameters, μ and ε. Thus, we have built three families of three-component
polar soliton solutions each of which contains exactly two free parameters; two
of these three families of three-component polar soliton solutions do not contain
explicitly parameter a, while one of them contains a explicitly.
The stability of all the above found three-component polar soliton solutions was
tested in direct simulations and reported in Ref. [1]. For the direct numerical sim-
ulations for testing the stability of solutions (11.23) and (11.24), a small random
perturbation was performed only in the φ0 component, and it was found that both
these types are unstable, as shown in Figs. 11.3 and 11.4.
384 11 Engineering Matter-Wave Solitons in Spinor …
For testing the stability of the three-component polar soliton solution given by Eq.
(11.25), small random perturbations were performed in all the three components; it
has been found that this three-component polar soliton (11.25) is completely stable.
An example of the obtained numerical simulations is reported in Fig. 11.5. It is seen
from plots of Fig. 11.5 that the added small perturbation on each soliton compo-
nent induces only small oscillations of the amplitudes of the corresponding soliton
component.

The situation is not the same for the one-component ferromagnetic soliton (11.9) for
which N (μ) and H (N ) are given in Eq. (11.10) and differ from those given in Eq.
(11.27). Computing N (μ) and H (N ) in the case of the stable three-component polar
soliton (11.25) which depends explicitly on a, we found that μ, N , and H are related
by exactly the same form as Eq. (11.10) for the FM soliton.
Comparing expression (11.27) to expression (11.10), we find that the one-
component FM soliton (11.9) and the stable three-component polar soliton given
by (11.25) simultaneously provide the minimum of energy when ν = +1 and a > 0,
which corresponds to attractive spin-independent and attractive spin-exchange inter-
actions between atoms. Each of the two species (11.9) and (11.25) in the cases
v = +1 and a > 0 plays the role of the ground state in its own class of the solitons.
In the above studies, we found that the two-component soliton (11.18) is also stable
in the region of 0 < a < 1, but it corresponds to higher energy; this means that the
two-component soliton (11.18) in region 0 < a < 1 represents a metastable state.
Also, the FM soliton (11.9) and the three-component polar soliton (11.25) exist
simultaneously when ν = −1 and a > 1 under the condition that ν + a is positive.
Because other soliton solutions (11.13) , (11.18) , (11.23) , and (11.24) do not exist

plots are ν = +1, q = −1/2, and μ = −1. Reprint from Ref. [1], Copyright 2022, with permission

when ν = −1, the two soliton species (11.9) and (11.25) provide for the energy
minimum.
The situation ν = +1 and −1 < a < 0 correspond to attractive spin-independent
and repulsive spin-exchange interactions in Eq. (11.7); in this situation, the Hamil-
tonian (11.27) is smaller than the competing one (11.10) for the single-component
FM soliton. In this situation, we then conclude that the two-component polar soli-
ton (11.18) plays the role of the ground state. It has been showed that also the
single-component soliton (11.9) and the three-component polar soliton (11.25) are
also stable in the region ν = +1 and −1 < a < 0, but correspond to greater energy;
these two solitons (11.9) and (11.25) then represent metastable states in this region.
The above studies have showed that there are no stable solitons when ν = +1 and
a < −1.
Using the dependence N (μ) for each solution family of found solitons and
employing the well-known known Vakhitov-Kolokolov criterion which gives the
necessary stability condition for a soliton family supported by a self-attractive non-
linearity (this criterion reads d M/dμ < 0) [12, 13], one can state an additional char-
acteristic of the soliton stability. Although this criterion guarantees that the soliton
is always stable against perturbations with real eigenvalues, it does not say anything
on the oscillatory perturbations modes that appear due to the complex eigenval-
ues. Computing d M/dμ from Eqs. (11.10) and (11.27), we find that d M/dμ < 0.
This means that the above solitons may be unstable only against temporal oscillat-
ing perturbations that grow in time. This features/behaviors of unstable solitons are
illustrated Figs. 11.1, 11.2, 11.3 and 11.4 generated with direct simulations.

In this Section, we focus our attention on the integrable case of Eq. (11.1) with
c2 + c0 = 0, when c0 < 0, which in terms of Eq. (11.3) corresponds to ν = a = 1.
This special case which corresponds to the attractive interactions, makes it possible to
develop deeper analysis of MI. We will also assumed that the physically constraint
(11.8) imposed on the scattering lengths of collisions between atoms is satisfied.
Under all these assumptions, Eqs. (11.3) can be reduced to the following completely

seed solution, solution (11.39) will be just a one-soliton solution of the NLS equation
(11.31). Further, using the solution Q1 as the new seed solution of Eq. (11.31), we
derive from Eq. (11.39) another new solution of Eq. (11.31), which now will be a
two-soliton solution. Following the same procedure, we can use the (n − 1)-soliton
solution to build the next solution, the n-soliton solution of the NLS equation (11.31).
Thus, we have shown how to apply the DT to construct the multisoliton solution of
the NLS equation (11.31).
In the following, we associate to the NLS equation (11.31) nonzero boundary
conditions (BCs) and consider the corresponding solution. First of all, we note that
Eq. (11.31) admits the following CW solution with constant densities, appearing as
its simplest solution with nonzero BCs:
βc αc
Qc = −Ac exp [iϕc ] , Ac ≡ , ϕc ≡ kx + 2 αc2 + βc2 − k 2 t,
αc −βc
(11.40)
where Ac with real constant elements αc and βc (with |αc | + |βc | > 0) is the matrix
amplitude (carrier amplitude) and k is the wavenumber (carrier wavenumber). In
solution (11.40), we can easily verify that the constant densities of components φ±1
are equal, while their signs are opposite.
Taking the CW solution with constant densities Qc as the seed solution and apply-
ing the above DT, we solve the linear system (11.32) and employ Eq. (11.39) to obtain
the following new family of solutions of the NLS equation (11.31):

will not vanish. To show in details that solution (11.41) under the above conditions
will develop a particular mode of the nonlinear development of MI, we can take a
special case with = εE, where ε is a small amplitude of the initial perturbation
added to the CW background and E is a matrix with all elements equal to 1. This
choice of will help us to initiate the onset of MI. Linearizing the initial value of
solution (11.41) with respect to the small parameter
, we arrive to

(11.48)
where
ρ ≡ 1 − ξ (2ξ + i M R ) / αc2 + βc2 with |ρ| = 1,
χ1 ≡ ξ M R (2iξ − M R ) / αc2 + βc2 ,
χ2 ≡ βc χ1 / αc2 + βc2 , M R = 2 αc2 + βc2 − ξ 2 ,
and σ x,z are the Pauli matrices. It is obvious that the approximation (11.48) consists
of a non-vanishing CW background, namely, its first term, two spatially modulated
terms (perturbations). Equation (11.48) therefore means that a small periodic per-
turbation in the CW background may lead to modulational instability. A compari-
son of the exact solution given by Eq. (11.41) in the special case when k = 2η and
αc2 + βc2 − ξ 2 > 0 with the results obtained from direct numerical simulations of Eq.
(11.38) under a given initial condition, we obtain that the two solutions are very close
each to another, both showing the development of the MI. For a better understanding,
we have used the exact solution (11.41) when k = 2η and αc2 + βc2 − ξ 2 > 0 to depict
in Fig. 11.8 the nonlinear development of the modulational instability. The nonlinear
MI shown in Fig. 11.8 means that the condensate periodically transfers atoms from
the spin state m F = 0 into the spin states m F = ±1 and vice versa.
In the general case when a
= 1 (that is, 2g0
= −g2 ), one can directly analyze the
onset of the MI from Eqs. (11.3) using the linear stability analysis [16]. In this way,
one should consider the CW solution (11.40) with k = 0 and perturb it as follows
b+1 (x, t) b0 (x, t)
= (Ac + B) exp 2iν αc2 + βc2 t , B =
Q ,
b0 (x, t) b−1 (x, t)
where matrix B with elements b±1 (x, t) and b0 (x, t) is a weak matrix of perturba-
tions. Using the linear stability method and denoting by K and ω the perturbation
wavenumber and frequency, respectively, yield the following two branches of the
dispersion relation:
ω2 = K 2 K 2 − 4aαc2 − 4aβc2 , (11.49)
ω2 = K 2 K 2 − 4ναc2 − 4νβc2 . (11.50)
For the MI to occur, at least one of the two ω2 must be a negative quantity, which
is possible as soon as at least one of the following two condition
K 2 < 4a αc2 + βc2 , K 2 < 4ν αc2 + βc2 (11.51)
holds. Note that if aν < 0, then one and only one of conditions (11.51) is satis-
fied. This means that, for example, the MI may occur in the case of the repulsive
spin-independent interactions in Eqs. (11.3) when a is positive. Also the MI may
References 393
occur if a > 0 and ν > 0, as for example, when a = v = 1 (case of attractive spin-
independent interactions in Eqs. (11.3)) with positive a.
For exploring the stability of the exact analytical soliton solutions (11.46) of
both the ferromagnetic and polar types rise up the question of the soliton to survive
random deviations of the coupling constant a from the value a = 1 corresponding
to the integrability of the system. Figure 11.9 shows the evolution of the density
distribution in the soliton generated from the exact soliton solution (11.46) by adding
a random time-dependent perturbation of the coupling constant a. As we can see from
plots of Fig. 11.9, solitons of both types are robust against random changes of the
nonlinear coupling constant a.

(i) the condensed polaritons with loss rate γC continuously replenish from reservoir
polaritons at rate R;
(ii) the reservoir polaritons decay at rate γ R while subjected to a uniform pumping
P;
(iii) the polaritons in the reservoir and condensate interact with each other modeled
by the spin-independent interaction parameter g R ;
(iv) there exist two excitation channels on top of the steady state, namely, the density
and the spin polarization which are usually coupled;
(v) nonlinear spin-polarization dynamics occurs in an isolated channel, leading to
a soliton profile, when the gain balances loss and fixes the background density;
the appearance of the soliton profile manifests the interplay of nonlinearity and
dispersion.
The aim of this Section is to employ the exact analytical solution of the model equa-
tion for investigating analytically the dynamics of dissipative MSs on top of a spin-
balanced density background for spinor polariton Bose-Einstein condensates [6–9].
The dissipative magnetic solitons found in the present Section are differ from con-
ventional dissipative solitons generated with the use of solutions of Gross-Pitaevski
equation [10], as well as from dissipative solitons in open-dissipative polaritonic
systems [11, 12].
The physical system to be studied in this Section is a spinor polariton BEC
formed under uniform non-resonant pumping in a wire-shaped microcavity [13].
For the exciton-polariton BEC, we assume the order parameter ψ(x, t) to be a two-
component complex vector with spin-up and spin-down wave functions ψ↑↓ = ψ1,2 :
ψ(x, t) ≡ [ψ1 (x, t), ψ2 (x, t)]T [14, 15, 0-15]. Denoting by n R the density of the
reservoir polaritons, the mathematical model that governs the evolution of the wave
functions ψ1 and ψ2 is found to be the driven-dissipative GP equations coupled to
the rate equation for n R [16, 17]:

Dashed lines in Fig. 12.2c correspond to the numerical solutions of system (12.1)–
(12.3) generated by taking the initial order parameter from Eqs. (12.6)–(12.7c) for
t = 0 and by letting n R (0) = γC /R. Plots of Fig. 12.2c show perfect agreement
between the analytical and numerical solution at time t/τ = 15 . Also, we have
numerically checked the stability of the MS by keeping n 0 = n 1 (0) + n 2 (0) fixed
and perturbing n 1 (0) − n 2 (0) from Eq. (12.7a).
Solution (12.6)–(12.7c) is a MS; in other words, this solution describes a localized
spin polarization sitting on top of a linearly polarized background state. We can
characterize the polarization property of the polariton soliton associated with the
soliton solution (12.6)–(12.7c) by means of the Stokes parameters [19]. Computing
the distribution of respectively the linear and the circular polarization degrees of
from the soliton solution (12.6)–(12.7c) , we arrive to

As we can see from different curves in Fig. √12.2b, the moving soliton is strongly
elliptically polarized for η < lω (here, lω = 1 − U 2 is the soliton width). It is also
seen from Fig. 12.2b that, the maximum value of the circular polarization degree
400 12 Engineering Magnetic Solitons in Nonlinear Systems
√
Sz (0) = 1 − U 2 , is reached at the soliton center. Away from the center, the soliton
becomes linearly polarized. Computing the total spin polarization degrees of the
soliton, we arrive to
dηSz (η) = π ξs ,
To show that the above magnetic polariton soliton (12.6)–(12.7c) preserves its energy,
we employ Eqs. (12.1)–(12.3) along with soliton solutions (12.6)–(12.7c) and obtain
dE ∂ψ1∗ ∂ψ2∗
= −2Re Ds + dx = 0. (12.10)
dt ∂t ∂t
Since the moving magnetic polariton soliton (12.6)–(12.7c) preserves its energy, we
conclude that (12.6)–(12.7c) is a dissipative soliton.
In the case studied in this Section, the constant density n 0 = γPC − γRR of the
dissipative magnetic soliton associated with solution (12.6)–(12.7c) is enabled by
the stable balance between the gain and loss. On the other hand, we can employ Eq.
(12.5) to obtain the following EODE for spin-polarization Sz :

Real solution of Eq. (12.11) results directly from the competition between the non-
linear interaction and the kinetic energy. It is important to note that the dissipative
MS relies on respective balances in two decoupled channels [12, 21, 22]. We also
notice that exact solution of form (12.6)–(12.7c) has been reported for equilibrium
atomic two-component BECs, when g − g12 g [6, 18, 23–25].
In the following, we analyze the properties of (i) linear spin polarization excitation,
(ii) linear response function, and (iii) the excitation spectrum for a spinor polariton
BEC. For this purpose, we consider, for the description of the spinor polariton BEC,
Eq. (12.6) in which we assume that δn 1 and ϕ A(B) 1. Inserting Eq. (12.6) into
the GP system (12.1)–(12.3) and following the standard BdG approach, we obtain,
for the excitation spectra ωq , the following equation:

ωq − (ω S )2 ωq + i (Rn 0 + γ R ) ωq

ω S = εq0 εq0 + (g − g12 ) n 0 , ω B = εq0 εq0 + (g + g12 ) n 0 , (12.13)
c(q) = − (Rn 0 + γ R ) (ω B )2 + 2gn 0 γC εq0 , (12.14)
with the free-particle energy εq0 = 2mq . The quadratic equation from Eq. (12.12)

yields ωq = ±ω S for the energy of the spin-polarization excitation. Evidently, the
cubic equation from Eq. (12.12) reflects the coupled linear excitations in the reservoir
and density channel of polariton BEC.
ω S given by Eq. (12.13) is a real quantity, independently on the fact that the
reservoir is fast or slow compared to the polariton BEC, as one can see from Fig. 12.3a.

Generally, the linear density excitation exhibits a complex energy ω D . In the case
of the linear density excitation, adiabatic elimination of the reservoir enables the
complex expression
ω D = −i ± ω0 , (12.15)

where
ω0 = εq0 εq0 + (g + g12 ) n 0 − 2g R /R − 2 /4,
= n 0 n 0R R 2 / (γ R + n 0 R) .
Because ω0 is a real quantity for |q| ≤ qc , ω D will be purely imaginary due to the
polariton loss, with
qc = m α 2 + 4 /4 − α 2 /2 .
For a best understanding, we have displayed respectively in Fig. 12.3a, b the real and
the imaginary parts of the linear density excitation ω D in the fast reservoir limit
along with the numerical solutions (solid lines) of the BdG equations. It is clearly
seen from these figures that the analytical and the numerical solutions agree well
with each other.
Concerning the linear response, we subject the spin polariton BEC to an exter-
nal density perturbation described by the expression λ exp [i (q x − ωt)] + H.c with
λ 1; next we assumed that the linear response in this BEC system is characterized
by the spin density static structure factor SS (q) and the density static structure factor
S D (q) and [26]. For simplicity, we set SS (q) = 0 and focus our attention on the case
of a fast reservoir limit, leading to the following analytical expression for S D (q):

The result is shown in Fig. 12.3c where the density static structure factor S D (q)
given by Eq. (12.16) is depicted. We can see from Fig. 12.3c that we have limq→∞ S D
(q) = 1. Now, let us consider the situation when a perturbation λσz exp
[i (q x − ωt)] + H.c is present. In this case, wee set S D (q) = 0 and find the spin

The result is depicted in Fig. 12.3d. As we can see from Fig. 12.3d, SS (q) → 1 as
q → ∞. These two results (limq→∞ S D (q) = limq→∞ SS (q) = 1) corroborate that
a spin polarization perturbation only induces spin excitations.
12.2.1 Introduction
Introduced in the last century by Landau and Lifshitz, the Landau–Lifshitz (LL) equa-
tion is a fundamental tool in the magnetic recording industry [30]. It can be used
to describe the nonlinear magnetization dynamics (NMDs) of the classical ferro-
magnet [30]. Its special solutions, including single-solitonlike and multi-solitonlike
solutions, have been reported in a number of research works [31–45]. Also, special
solutions of LL equation for the special initial condition have been considered by
several researchers [46–60] .
404 12 Engineering Magnetic Solitons in Nonlinear Systems
In all the enumerated works on the solutions of LL equation for NMDs, the
anisotropy in an external magnetic field was neglected. When the anisotropy is added
in the external magnetic field, analytical investigation of NMDs of the ferromagnet
becomes difficult. In this situation the equation of motion for the NMDs of the
ferromagnet differs from those of an isotropic ferromagnet and cannot be solved
neither by separating variables in moving coordinate, by Darboux transform (DT),
nor by an usual form of inverse scattering transformation (IST) [32]. Considering
exact analytical solutions of the LL equation under various external actions, a general
theory with terms of the continuous spectrum as a starting point, as we will see in
the following, is necessary. It is evident that the system, under an external magnetic
field, the initial condition of the Landau-Lifschitz equation of a ferromagnet with
an anisotropy will be changed, and the system will become non-integrable. In this
Section, the effect of the magnetic field on the integrability of the system will be
discussed and single- and multisoliton solutions of the equation of motion will be
built [34, 60–64].

with the atomic spin S and inter-atomic spacing a. In the limit bβx = 0, the biaxial
anisotropic ferromagnet will reduce into an uniaxial anisotropic ferromagnet with
an anisotropy axis coinciding with the z axis: when βz > 0 [βz < 0], an anisotropy
is of an easy-axis type and its magnetization vector in the ground state is directed
along the z axis [lies in the easy plane in the absence of an external magnetic field
and can be directed arbitrarily in this plane]. In the absence of the anisotropic energy
(that is, E an = 0), a crystal is called an isotropic ferromagnet.
As a function of space coordinates and time, the magnetization vector of the
classical ferromagnet M(x, t), function of both the spatial coordinates x and time t,
is governed by the Landau-Lifschitz equation
∂M 2μ B δE
= M× . (12.19)
∂t δM
Assuming the spatial coordinate x and time t to be measured in unit of respectively
l0 = (a/βz )1/2 and ω0 = (2μ B βz M0 ) /, we deduce from Eqs. (12.18) and (12.19)
the following equation of motion
2
∂M ∂ M
=M× + J M + μ B B , with J = diag(Jx , Jy , Jz ), (12.20)
∂t ∂x2
in which the matrix J is related to the anisotropic constants. The terms proportional
to the Bohn magneton μ B of Eq. (12.20) describes various external actions such as
the magnetic field (the case to be treated in this Section), the magnetic impurities,
and the dissipative loses. It has been established that the motion equation (12.20)
in the special case B = 0 is exactly integrable [48]; in this case, Eq. (12.20) can be
reduced into a sine-Gordon equation in the limit Jx Jy Jz , when oscillations
M are localized near an easy plane yz. In the limit B = 0 the motion equation (12.20
turns to a NLS equation in the limit Jx ≈ Jy Jz , when oscillations of M are
localized in the vicinity of the vacuum state M(x, t) = (0, 0, M0 ). Also, the motion
equation for an isotropic ferromagnet in an external magnetic field is completely
integrable, if βz = 0 [54]. The motion equation (12.20) under a zero magnetic field
is equivalent to a NLS equation [36]. Therefore, the motion equation (12.20) is the
most general motion equation describing the nonlinear magnetization dynamics of
classical ferromagnet with two single-ion anisotropies in an external magnetic field
[61].
We start by considering the effect of an external magnetic field on the integrabil-
ity of the motion equation (12.20). For magnetic fields with either an easy-plane or
an easy-axis (that is, with rotational symmetry), we can, by going over to a rotat-
ing coordinate frame, generalize the analysis of results of work [48]. Introducing a
stereographic projection P(x, y) of the unit sphere of magnetization vector onto a
complex plane as follows [46, 65]

where
Jx = Jz − Jy , Jy = Jy − Jx , Jz = Jy − Jx .
Under the restrictions (12.24), the evolution equation for the stereographic projection

magnetic field is found to be

For analyzing the effect of an external magnetic field on the integrability of the motion
equation, we will use the evolution equation (12.25) of the stereographic projection.
When B x = B y = 0, that is, B = [0, 0, B z (t)] corresponding to an external field
directed along an anisotropic axi, we can remove the magnetic field term from Eq.
(12.25) by using the following gauge transformation
$ = P exp iμ B dt B z (t) ;
P→P
the system then becomes integrable. It is evident that in the situation when only
B y (t) = 0, that is, B = [0, B y (t), 0] (the case when the magnetic field is transverse),
the above gauge transformation cannot free Eq. (12.25) of the magnetic field term.
In this case of B = [0, B y (t), 0], the combined Galilean and gauge invariance of
12.2 Nonlinear Magnetization Dynamics of a Classical Ferromagnet 407
the Landau Lifschitz equation will be broken, there will not exist Lax pairs, and the
system will be non-integrable.
Although the introduction of an angular variable $ϕ = ϕ − ω B t in the polar coor-
dinates (θ, ϕ) free Eq. (12.20) in terms (θ , $
ϕ ) from B, it is important to note that
NMDs of the classical ferromagnet with an easy-axis plane is very sensitive to an
external magnetic field, independently on the nature of the magnetic field (weak or
strong). A perpendicular to an easy-axis plane external magnetic field does not alter
the axial symmetry corresponding to the z-axis; in such a situation, the form of the
ground state will depend on the strength of an external field. Let us denote by Bc the
critical of the external magnetic field B:
The magnetization vector M in the ground state under the condition that Bz < Bc
will deviate from an easy plane; in such a situation, M will be characterized by an
inclination θ = θ0 = arccos(B z /Bc ) to the z axis (the ground state is referred to as
“easy cone” when Bz < Bc ). The angle ϕ remains arbitrary. With the increase in the
external magnetic field, the angular opening of the easy cone becomes smaller, and
vector M in a non-excited ferromagnet with an easy plane lies along the z-axis.
Let us consider, in the context of the experiments [63, 64], the situation when
either B = [B x (t), 0, 0] or B = [0, B y (t), 0], corresponding to the situation when
an external magnetic field lies in an easy plane. In this context, we consider as samples
of a ferromagnet with an easy plane, Cs Ni F3 and (C6 H11 NH3 )CuBr3 , and assumed
an external field to be applied as a rule in an easy plane. With these two samples,
we obtain that the presence of an external field, which lies in an easy plane, it is
not easy to find exact soliton solutions of the corresponding LL equation. It is not
possible to free equation (12.25) from the magnetic-field term by using the above
gauge transformation. This means that in general, a ferromagnet with a uniaxial
anisotropy in a transverse magnetic field is non-integrable; it may become integrable
only in the absence of either an external field or an anisotropic interaction.

the Lax pairs for an uniaxial anisotropic ferromagnet in an external magnetic field
can be rewritten as follows:
Next, we introduce a Riemann surface. For this aim, we assumed the spectral param-
eters λ and μ to be functions of a new introduced variable k, called the affine variable:

Also, each of 0+ (x, k), 0 (x, k), and 0− (x, k) has two independent solutions,

Under an external magnetic field, vector M in the ground state of a ferromagnet
with an easy plane will deviate from an easy plane, and will be characterized by
an inclination θ0 [φ0 ] to the z− axis [x-axis], where the asymptotic magnetization
vector M lies on the surface of an easy cone. In this situation, the simplest solution
of the equation of motion (12.20) is found to satisfy the BC of the first type

As it has been stated above, the magnetization will be far from an easy plane when an
external magnetic field increases; in the special case of B z Bc , the magnetization
will lie along the z axis. When the magnetic fields vanish, magnetization will lie on
an easy plane and takes the form

Using the results of the previous subsection, we investigate here soliton solutions.
These soliton solutions can be built using the inverse scattering problem, which
consists of constructing the magnetization vector M(x, t) from the time-dependent
scattering data. Such an inverse scattering problem can be carried out either by means
of the Gel’fand-Levitan-Marchenko (GLM) equation or a linear integral equation.

The found above results reveal that the nonlinear magnetization of the classical
ferromagnet with an anisotropy under the action of an external magnetic field depends
essentially on the two velocities V1 and V2 given in Eqs. (12.65) and (12.69), the
center of nonlinear magnetization moving with a constant velocity V1 , while its shape
changes with any change in the velocity V2 . For a better understanding, we display,
with the use of the exact soliton solutions given in Eqs. (12.66) and (12.67), in
Figs. 12.4, 12.5, 12.6 and 12.7 typical graphical illustrations showing the motion of
the center and the change of shape of the z− component of nonlinear magnetization
field (M1 )z . Figures 12.4 and 12.6 [12.5 and 12.7] are associated with a ferromagnet
with an easy plane [axis].
By taking now the z− axis as the polar axis in the polar coordinates, we can write
the one-soliton solutions as follows

We have also found that the amplitudes and widths of the MSs under the action of
an external magnetic field are periodic function of time t. With the use of Eqs. (12.75)
and (12.76), we have showed in Fig. 12.8 some graphical illustrations of the change
of amplitude and width of the z component (M1 )z of the nonlinear magnetization M
in the case of an easy plane. It is seen from Fig. 12.8 that the amplitude and shape of
the (M1 )z also changes with a velocity V2 and, the shape of soliton is not symmetrical
with respect to the soliton center. In the case of an easy axis, the shape of the soliton
is symmetrical with respect to the soliton center, as we can clearly see from Fig. 12.9.
It is evident that at the limit ρ → 0, all soliton solutions in an uniaxial anisotropic
ferromagnet reduce to those in an isotropic ferromagnet. If for example, setting
ρ → 0 in Eqs. (12.66) and (12.67) yields

These results coincide with Eq. (27a) in Ref. [55], obtained by means of the
method of an inverse scattering transformation (IST). Our study also shows that the
center and shape of the z component Mz of nonlinear magnetization under the action
of an external magnetic field do not move with the two velocities V1 and V2 , as it is
clearly seen from Fig. 12.10. If we consider the z axis as the polar axis in the polar

Equation (12.78) means that under an external magnetic field, the amplitudes and
widths of the z component Mz of the nonlinear magnetization M are not periodic
functions of time t. For a better understanding, we depict in Fig. 12.11 some graph-
ical illustrations of the amplitudes and width of component (M1 )z of the nonlinear
magnetization M defined by Eq. (12.78) in the case of an isotropic ferromagnet. In
the limit t → 0, the obtained here results are equivalent to Eq. (22) obtained in Ref.
[33] with the method of separating variables in moving coordinates.
Evaluating the total magnetic momentum, we find
P = M0 d x (1 − cos θ ) ∇ϕ, (12.79)
which is not a constant under the action of an external magnetic field, but depends
on time. We also find that
Pz = M0 d x (1 − cos θ ) (12.80)
is not a constant. In Figs. 12.12 and 12.13, we show some graphical illustrations of
the Pz (z component of the total magnetic momentum P) defined by Eq. (12.80)
for respectively an easy plane and an easy axis. Pz varies periodically with time in
an anisotropic ferromagnet with an easy plane (Fig. 12.12), but is aperiodic in time
for an anisotropic ferromagnet with an easy axis (Fig. 12.13). In the latter case, Pz
decreases as a function of time t and has the sense of the mean number of spins
428 12 Engineering Magnetic Solitons in Nonlinear Systems
deviated from the ground state in localized magnetic excitations. This feature has
not yet been observed in the study of all other nonlinear problems in magnetism [33].
Assuming kn to be all positive and k1 > k2 > ... > k N , we denote by n the vicinity
of x = xin + Vin t (i = 1, 2). For large enough time t, we separate these vicinities
from left to right as N , N −1 , ..., 1 . In j , there are the following limits:

From the above results, we affirm the existence of multisoliton solutions in a strict
sense for the classical ferromagnet with two single-ion anisotropies in an external
magnetic field. At the limit t → ±∞, M appears to be the trains of N separating
one-solitons. We find that the trains

It is obvious that the angle tan [ϕ] = arctan M y /Mx contains a linear term in
time t, meaning that the x− and the y− components Mx and M y of the nonlinear
magnetization manifest themselves as solitons. Evaluating the total phase shift of the
jth peak, we arrive to

12.2.5 Conclusion
(ii) the amplitude and width of the nonlinear magnetization are periodic function of
time, while the wave shape, also a function of time, is unsymmetric with respect
to its center.
The total magnetic momentum P is derived and its z component Pz are studied in
detail. Studying the asymptotic behavior of multisoliton solutions in the long-time
limit, we have calculated the total displacement X j of the center as well as the phase
shift j of the jth peak.
12.3.1 Introduction
We start our study with the situation of a very long ferromagnetic nanowire with
a uniform cross Section, as depicted in Fig. 12.14 [84]. The nanowire of Fig. 12.14
can be viewed as infinite in length. In this nanowire of Fig. 12.14, the x− and the
z-axes are assumed to be respectively the flow direction (long length of the wire)
and the directions of both the uniaxial anisotropy field and the external field. Next,
it is assumed that the electronic current flows in the x-direction. Throughout this
nanowire, the magnetization is assumed to be nonuniform only in the direction of
current, that is, in the x-direction. Therefore, the current injected in this physical
system can be polarized and produces a spin torque
∂M μB
τb = b J , with b J = P je (12.86)
∂x eMs
that acts on the local magnetization; here, P is the spin polarization of the current,
je stands for the density of the electric current, e is the magnitude of electron charge,
Ms is the saturation magnetization, μ B is the Bohr magneton, and M is the nonlinear
magnetization vector [46]. Under all these considerations, the modified LLG equation
with the spin torque 12.86 reads
∂M α ∂M
= −γ M × He f f + M× + τb . (12.87)
∂t Ms ∂t
Here, He f f is the effective magnetic field including the external field, the anisotropy
field, the demagnetization field, and the exchange field, α is the Gilbert damping
parameter, and γ is the gyromagnetic ratio. In the context of this subsection, the
effective field He f f will be assumed to be
2
2A ∂ 2M HK
He f f = + − 4π Mz + Hext ez , (12.88)
Ms ∂x2 Ms
where HK , Hext , A, and ez are respectively the anisotropy field, the applied field,
the exchange constant, and the unit vector along the z-direction. Throughout this
Section, we denote by Q the “quality factor”, defined as
Hk
Q= . (12.89)
4π Ms
Dependent on the value of the quality factor Q, we will focus our attention in two
special cases, the case Q > 1 corresponding to “Long ferromagnetic nanowire”, and
the case when Q < 1 which corresponds to low or “short ferromagnetic nanowire”.
It follows from Eq. (12.89) that the situation Q > 1 corresponds to the case when
the uniaxial anisotropy field is larger than the magnetization field (this situation
12.3 Nonlinear Magnetization Dynamics in the Presence of Spin-Polarized Current 433
occurs for some metallic magnetic films [85] and multilayers [86]). Under the con-
dition Q > 1, dark magnetic solitons for the Mz component can be obtained. Before
turn to the search of exact soliton solutions of the LLG equation (12.87), let us rescale
the time coordinate and space coordinate by characteristic time as follows:
1 2A
t0 = , l0 = .
γ (HK − 4π Ms ) (HK − 4π Ms ) Ms
Letting M = Ms m, the LLG equation (12.87) takes the following simplified form
[84]
" #
∂m ∂2m Hext ∂m b J t0 ∂m
=− m× − m z + (m × ez ) + αm × + . (12.90)
∂t ∂x2 H K − 4π Ms ∂t l0 ∂ x
where m x , m y , and m z are respectively the x−, y−, and z− component of the
magnetization vector m. We then find that the complex function ψ is described by
the following equation:

∂ψ ∂ 2ψ ψ∗ ∂ψ Hext
i (1 − iα) = − 2 − ψ

434 12 Engineering Magnetic Solitons in Nonlinear Systems
1 − ψψ ∗ b J t0 ∂ψ
− ∗
ψ +i . (12.93)
1 + ψψ l0 ∂ x
In the following, we will get linear magnetization dynamics (LMDs) and NMDs
from the complex function ψ.
Following Li and Zhang [76], we take the spin wave (SW) ansatz
m = δm x ex + δm y e y exp [i (k · r − ωt)] + ez , (12.94)
where δm x and δm y stand for the rescaled amplitude of the SWs in respectively the
x and y directions, and ω is a complex angular frequency. Inserting ansatz (12.94)
into Eq. (12.92) yields
δm x ex + δm y e y
ψ = ψ0 exp [i (k · r − ωt)] with ψ0 = . (12.95)
2
Inserting now ψ from Eq. (12.95) into Eq. (12.93) and linearizing the resulting equa-
tion with respect with ψ0 yields the dispersion relation
ω = (1 + iα) ω0 1 + l02 (k x − b J Ms /γ A)2 , (12.96)
where
γ (HK − 4π Ms + Hext ) − b2J Ms /2γ A
ω0 = ,

(12.97)
16γ 2 A2
l02 = 2 ,
8γ Ms A (HK − 4π Ms + Hext ) − Ms2 b2J
b J being given in Eq. (12.86). Using Eqs. (12.86) and (12.97), one can easily verify
that the spin-polarized current changes the energy gap. The gap vanishes for large
current density
e
je ≥ 2 AL s (HK − 4π Ms + Hext ).
P
This means that without other stimulation, such as thermal effects, the spin-polarized
current excites SWs when its density increases beyond a critical value. The Gilbert
damping gives the energy gap a rescaling and damps the SW.
Now, we turn to the investigation of the nonlinear excitation of the LLG equations.
For investigating the nonlinear excitation of LLG equations, we assume that |ψ|2
1, or, its equivalent form, m 2x + m 2y m 2z . This condition corresponds to a deviations
of magnetization from the equilibrium direction along the anisotropy axis. Let us
assume that the wavelength l0 and the wavenumber k of the SW satisfy the condition
l0 k 1 [87]. By keeping only the nonlinear terms of the order of the magnitude
of |ψ|2 ψ, we can obtain equation (12.93) in a more simple form. Neglecting the
damping, we arrive to the following NLS equation with one linear derivative term

with the help of the initial soliton location and amplitude. Using now the expression of
ψ given in Eq. (12.99), we obtain the solution of magnetization though its components
as
2k R Hext C
mx = cos η I + 1 + t cosh η R + ,
HK − 4π Ms 2
2k R Hext C
my = sin η I + 1 + t cosh η R + , (12.101)

mz = −k 2R + cosh2 η R + ,

where = k 2R + cosh2 η R + C2 .
The one-soliton solution (12.101) represents a 2π domain wall (DW) [89]. The
height of this one-soliton coincides with the rescaled magnetization, and its velocity
V is defined as
l0
V = −b J − 2k I , with k I = Im [k] .
t0
From the expression for the velocity V , it is clearly seen that the spin-polarized current
alters the soliton velocity as −b J , proportional to the electron current density. From
the solution (12.101), we can see that the x− and the y− component of the nonlinear
magnetization vector m, m x and m y are oscillate periodically with respect with time
t. This behavior constitutes one of the effects of the external fields on the nonlinear
magnetization vector m. If b J , instead of being a constant, is an alternating currents
(ac), that is, has the form
P je μ B
bJ = cos [ωt] ,
eMs
In this situation, the center of the mass of solitons vibrate with the same frequency
as the alternating currents. Considering the effect of nonlinear excitations on the
spin be polarized current, the spin-current density in ferromagnetic material with
nonuniform magnetization and adiabatic approximation will then be [76]

so that the single-soliton excitation in nanowire gives spin current a magnetic pulse
like the optical pulse in nonlinear media.

For a better understanding, we have showed in Fig. 12.15 the elastic collision of two
dark two-solitons of the z− component m z of the nonlinear magnetization vector m.
As in the case of the one-solitons associated with the exact solution (12.101), the
width and the amplitudes of the x− and y components m x and m y of the nonlinear
magnetization vector m vary periodically with time; this behavior of m x and m y
is due of the oscillating factor induced by the external and anisotropic fields. It is
seen from the analytical expression of the two-solitons solutions that the two-soliton
excitations bring the spin current two magnetic single-solitons propagating with
different velocities.

Let us now consider the situation when the uniaxial anisotropy field is smaller than the
magnetization field such as in permalloy, that is, the situation when Q < 1 and discuss
the nonlinear solutions of Eq. (12.87). In this case, we introduce the characteristic
time t0 and length l0 as follows:
1 2A
t0 = , and l0 = .
γ (4π Ms − HK ) 4π Ms − HK
Following the same procedure as in the previous subsection, we transform the LLG
Eq. (12.87) into the following nonlinear Schrödinger equation with one linear deriva-
tive term and an external linear potential
∂ψ ∂ 2ψ t0 ∂ψ Hext

As we can see from Eq. (12.106) and solutions (12.107), the spin-polarized current
alters the soliton velocity and induces the oscillation of the two components m x and
m y of the nonlinear magnetization vector m.
The two-soliton solutions of Eq. (12.105) are found to be
λ (1 + g1 + g2 )

evolution of magnetization is defined as

By means of the asymptotical analysis, we lead to the conclusion that the magnetic
two-solitons collide without amplitude switching, but with phase shift δφ = ln [C].
After the collision of magnetic two-solitons, the solitons centers displace with ln [A].
We have depicted the evolution of two bright two-solitons in Fig. 12.16, showing the
elastic collision of two bright two-solitons of an m z component of the nonlinear
magnetization vector. The numerical values of the material parameters of permalloy
used in Fig. 12.16 are: A = 1.3 × 10−6 erg/cm, HK = 10 Oe, Ms = 800 G, je = 106
440 12 Engineering Magnetic Solitons in Nonlinear Systems
A/cm2 , P = 0.5 and Hext = 2000 Oe. The numerical values of the characteristic time
t0 and length l0 are t0 = 4.5510 − 11 s, l0 = 1.1 × 410−6 cm, while b J = 51 cm/s.
As in the case Q > 1, let us take a look on the situation when the external magnetic
field deviates from the z axis; in such a situation, the LLG equations generally do not
have exact analytical solutions [90], except in some special cases. Let us consider
for example, the case when Q < 1 and Hx ex + Hz ez = Hext and Q < 1. Taking into
account the spin-polarized current, we find the following dynamic soliton solution

where

ξ= 1 − γ t0 Hx x + bJ t , D = .
l0 1 − γ Hx t0
Analyzing this dynamic soliton, we can well see that (i) the depth and width of
the trough decrease with the increase in Hx , and (ii) the amplitudes of m x and m y
components of the nonlinear magnetization vector m periodically oscillate with time
with frequency γ Hz . According to the above found dynamic solution, when the
external field perpendicular to wire’s axis vanishes (Hext = 0), the magnetization
rotates purely in a plane parallel to the wire’s axis. This found dynamic solution is
displayed in Fig. 12.17 with the same material parameters as in Fig. 12.16: A = 1.3 ×
10−6 erg/cm, HK = 10 Oe, Ms = 800 G, je = 106 A/cm2 , P = 0.5 and Hext =
2000 Oe.

the strength of a constant magnetic field below a certain value (alias the Walker
break down value or critical value) above which the autonomous soliton develops a
time-dependent complex internal structure resulting in DW velocity oscillation [6,
7, 18, 19, 25–27]. In general, when the coefficients of a NPDE depend explicitly on
time t (such a NPDE can be obtained during the mathematical modeling of a physical
phenomenon when some external time-varying forces are applied on it), its soliton
solutions are called “ non-autonomous solitons” [16, 36, 37]. In the context of the
ferromagnetic nanowire, non-autonomous solitons can be realized by applying the
time-varying magnetic field/current to the local nonlinear magnetization [38–40].
Of course, applying time-varying magnetic field/current to the local magnetization
will result in the fast DW propagation with an optimal field or current pulse. Based
on the LLG equations (13.1) or its generalization/modification, we investigate in
this Chapter the NMDs of a magnetic domain in the presence of adiabatic and non-
adiabatic spin-transfer torque resulting in domain wall and non-autonomous solitons
in ferrimagnets. We also discuss some of the fundamental properties unique to mag-
netic multilayers.
The physical model to be studied in this Section is the ferromagnetic metallic film in
the xy plane displayed in Fig. 13.1, with the easy axis z perpendicular to the film. We
assume, for this film, that going through the film along the x direction, the in-plane
current exerts spin-transfer torque on the local nonlinear magnetization. Taking the

respectively.

13.2 Current Driven Dynamics of Domain Wall in Ferrimagnets 457
The above result shows that below the critical spin polarized current,
condition
∂m
m × heff = b1 (13.21)
∂x
guarantees the final equilibrium domain wall solution. This condition
(13.21) clearly shows that the spin-transfer torque has the following
two interesting effects: (i) the term b1 ∂m/∂x in Eq. (13.12) plays the
anti-precession role counteracting the precession driven by the effec-
tive field heff , while term αb1 m × (∂m/∂x) in Eq. (13.13) has the anti-
damping effect counteracting the damping term −αm × (∂m/∂x); (ii)
the spin-polarized current below its critical value cannot drive DW
move continuously without the applied external magnetic field.
As we will see in the next Section, the dynamics of DW exhibits
two novel properties when the spin-polarized current exceeds the crit-
ical value. In the situation when the spin-polarized current exceeds the
critical value, the precession term −m×heff cannot be counteracted
by spin-transfer torque, and equation (13.12) does not admit static
DW solutions. Since the magnitude of the magnetization is constant,
we have m · (∂m/∂x) = 0; this shows that m⊥∂m/∂x, that is, either
∂m/∂x = 0 or the direction of m is always perpendicular to the direc-
tion of ∂m/∂x. As we well know, a magnetic domain wall separates
two opposite domains by minimizing the energy, while the direction of
magnetic moments gradually changes, so that ∂m/∂x = 0. It is clear
that the normalized magnetization out of region of DW will site at the
easy axis, that is, mx = 1 (mx = −1), in which we have ∂m/∂x = 0.
Analyzing with details Eq. (13.12) under the above consideration,
we find that the motion of magnetic moment in the DW center will
not stop, except it falls into the easy axis (x-direction), that is, out
of the range of DW. Going back to Eq. (13.12), we can see that the
above found novel screw-pitch effect on the domail velocity and width
occurs even at the conjunct action of the damping and spin-transfer
torque. This theoretical prediction is confirmed by performing direct
simulations by means of the RKMK method on Eq. (13.12) with an
arbitrary initial condition [42, 43]; in these numerical simulations, we
consider only current that exceeds the critical value. Figures 13.2a–c
and Fig. 13.2d show the time evolution of the normalized magnetiza-
tion m and the displacement of domain wall center, respectively. All
the results in Fig. 13.2 are in entire agreement with our above theo-

evolution of the velocity and width of the DW velocity. As we can see
from Fig. 13.3, the periodic change of cos [φD ] leads to the temporal
periodically oscillation of DW width and velocity. From the third term
of Eqs. (13.12) and (13.18), cos [φD ] undergoes uneven change as one
can clearly see in Fig. 13.3a. It is clearly seen from Fig. 13.2d that the
DW displacement increases rapidly at first period and then slowly.

Equations (13.29) and (13.30) constitute the novel motion of non-
autonomous DW. We can clearly see from Eq. (13.29) that the velocity
of the DW consists of two parts: the coherent DW rotation velocity
∂φ/∂t and the longitudinal external field hL along the easy axis. Also,
we can see from these two equations that the damping parameter α also
affects the DW velocity, while the DW width W0 is determined by the
energetic anisotropy constants. As it is clearly seen from Eq. (13.30),
the velocity of the DW has two characteristics, neamely, the constant
velocity C and the temporal periodic velocity with amplitude Cm ;
the constant velocity arises from the external driving force, while the
periodic temporal one is induced by the internal transverse anisotropy
parameter kx . From Eqs. (13.29) and (13.30), we derive the following
DW displacement:

(13.33)
where κ1 = Cm − C and κ2 = Cm + C. At the limit t → ∞, B → 0
and sin [2φ] → −C/Cm ; this means that the DW stops the rotation
and the cant angle attains its extremum. This fact is confirmed in Eq.
(13.30). Computing the DW velocity in the limit t → ∞, we find V =
−W0 hL /α; this means that in the limit t → ∞, the DW velocity can be
controlled by adjusting the longitudinal external field hL . Integrating
Eq. (13.32) in this case yields the following DW displacement L(t):

L(t) = − hL t + arctan − arctan √ ,

The DW solution (13.34) implies that the DW stops the rotation in the
limit t → ∞, and at the same time, the cant angle is sin [2φ] → −1.
Computing the DW velocity in the limit t → ∞, we obtain the same
result as in the above case (i). Meanwhile, the DW displacement is
found to be

L(t) = − [hL t + arctan [2Ct]] .

It follows from the results obtained for C ≤ Cm that a critical value
for current and/or field exists. When the external filed is neglected,
this critical condition reads SLc = kx /2. When the spin-polarized cur-
rent is below its critical value, the DW finally stops the coherent rota-
tion, resulting in the static DW solution with an arbitrary initial DW
state. The DW velocity in both cases is found to be controlled finally

equation yields t = tn = nπ/ (2ω) (n = 0, 1, ...). Inserting Eq. (13.30)
into Eq. (13.35), we find that the DW rotation velocity ∂φ/∂t consists
of two parts, the temporal periodic velocity with the amplitude Cm
and frequency ω, controlled by the longitudinal spin-polarized cur-

rent SL , and the constant velocity C, related to the internal trans-
verse anisotropy parameter kx . This interesting phenomenon occurs
independently on the presence or absence of external filed. When the
external field is neglected, only the longitudinal spin-polarized current
SL obtained from Eq. (13.29) controls the DW velocity and rotation.
When increasing parameter C, the DW rotation becomes more rapid;
this can be realized by adjusting the external driving force.
Using the expressions of C and Cm from Eq. (13.31), the DW velocity
in Eq. (13.29) reads
1
V = −W0 αhL + SL + hT + kx sin [2φ] . (13.36)
2
Equation (13.36) shows the contribution of the longitudinal spin-
polarized current SL , the longitudinal external field hL , and the transver-
sal external field hT to the DW velocity: SL and hT contribute to the fast
DW velocity, while hL is weakened by the damping factor α. Compared
the above results obtained in the case C > Cm with those obtained when
C ≤ Cm , we find that the DW velocity becomes slow with the same
the longitudinal external field hL . For the rotating motion of magne-
tization obtained in the case C > Cm , the DW displacement L(t) in
Eq. (13.32) consists two parts, a linear and a nonlinear parts. We can
also see from Eq. (13.32) that for each time period T0 = π/ω, the DW
moves through the same displacement.
The above properties of the non-autonomous DW motion obtained
beyond the critical value (C > Cm ) are illustrated in Figs. 13.6 and
13.7. As we can see from Fig. 13.6 obtained when C is slightly above
the critical value that the DW rotates periodically and exhibits a nonuni-
form velocity in each period of time. It firstly rotates slowly, and finally,
rotates rapidly in the middle of each period. The DW displacement
and velocity in turn take the same vision. Figure 13.7 generated with
C Cm reveals that the DW possesses the sinusoidal oscillation nearly
for DW rotation and velocity. At the same time, the DW displacement
takes the linear response to time. This last feature is theoretically con-
firmed by the following special form of L(t) obtained from Eq. (13.32)
with κ1∼ κ2 :

In the following, we discuss both the LMDs and the NMDs in a
uniaxial ferromagnetic nanowire injected with current. By means of a
stereographic projection [45], we transform the model equation into
a nonlinear equation of complex function; using this last equation,
we obtain high-Q model and the low-Q model of dark/bright soliton
solutions with the help of which we investigate the effect of spin-
polarized current on the MSs of the magnetization in the ferromagnetic
metal nanowire; here,

In the case when Q > 1 which corresponds to the situation when the
uniaxial anisotropy field is larger than the demagnetization field, such
as the case for some metallic magnetic films [46] and multilayers [47],
dark MSs for mz component of the nonlinear magnetization vector
m = M/MS can be obtained. For this aim, the time coordinate and
space coordinate are rescaled by characteristic time and length as

As we well know, the exact spin wave solutions of the LLG equation
can be obtained in the presence of spin polarized current [28]. Because
the deviation of magnetization from the direction of the field is small
when Q > 1 (high magnetic field), we only consider low-energy exci-
tation. We then seek for the nonlinear magnetization vector m using
the following ansatz
m = δmx ex + δmy ey exp [i (kx − ωt)] + ez , (13.41)
where δmx and δmy stand for the rescaled amplitudes of the spin wave
in the x- and y-directions, respectively, and k and ω are the wavenumber
and angular frequency of the spin wave, respectively. Equation (13.41)
corresponds to the following stereographic transformation

Analyzing Eq. (13.53) one can see that in the case when D1I δ1I =
δ1R D1R , that is, (D1 δ1 )R = 0, the wave parameter θ1 does not depend
on time t; this means that the wave velocity −(D1 δ1 )R/D1R becomes
zero, which implies that the soliton is trapped in space by the nonlinear
SW. Mathematically, this condition reads

and is determined by the soliton wavenumber ν1 , the parameter
(eMs /PμB ), and the characteristic velocity l0 /t0 . This means that in the
special case when Ac kc and μ1 ν1 , the background has almost no
effect on the trapping condition. For the materials of Co3 Pt alloy films
[46] with high perpendicular anisotropy, we use the following numer-
ical values of parameters: HK = 1 × 104 Oe, A = 1.0 × 10−6 erg/cm,
4π Ms = 1 × 102 Oe, γ = 1.76 × 107 Oe−1 s−1 , P = 0.35, as well as
the dimensionless parameters kc = 0.05, Ac = 0.02, ν1 = −0.12, and
μ1 = 0.1. Computing the critical electric current trapping soliton with
these parameters, we find je = 1.867 × 104 A/cm2 . Here, it should be
noted, as we can see from Eqs. (13.52) and (13.19) and the expres-
sions of δ1 given by Eq. (13.54a), that the term bJ changes the soliton
velocity and the frequency affecting the soliton energy. This last soli-
ton property is characterized by the temporal and spatial period along

Some novel properties of solution (13.52) can be explained by dis-
cussing the special case kc = −ν1 and analyzing in detail two repre-
sentative situations with Ac , μ1 > 0: (i) the SW amplitude Ac exceeds
the half of the transverse amplitude 2μ1 of soliton (μ21 < A2c ); (ii) the

Analyzing Eq. (13.59) reveals that the exact analytical solution (13.58)
is periodic in the space coordinate with period 2π/κ1 , and aperiodic
in the time, as we can see from Fig. 13.12. We can clearly see from
Fig. 13.12 that the soliton background becomes unstable under mod-
ulation. This means that the solution (13.58) can be use for describ-
ing the MI phenomenon [54]. Our calculations show that along the
soliton propagation direction, the component
mz reaches (a) the max-
imum mz = 1 at cos [1 ] = 2μ21 − A2c /μ1 Ac when A2c /4 < μ21 <
A2c ; these points are
not excited even on the SW background, and (b)
the minimum mz = 1 − (2μ1 + Ac )2 at sin [1 ]= 0. When μ21 <
A2c /4, the maximum of the component mz is mz = 1 − (2μ1 − Ac )2
and is reached at 1 = 0, while its minimum is mz = 1 − (2μ1 + Ac )2
and is reached at 1 = π. From these results, we conclude that the lin-
ear combination of transverse amplitude of SW and magnetic soliton
can be obtained in these special cases A2c < 4μ21 < 4A2c and 4μ21 < A2c .

As we can see from expressions (13.60) and (13.61), the main charac-
teristics of soliton solution can be summarized as follows:
(α) the envelope velocity ν1 = −(2ν1 + bJ t0 /l0 ) of the soliton is the
same on both the ground state background m = (0, 0, 1) and the back-
ground of a periodic spin current in Eq. (13.50);
(β) the amplitude of component mz given in Eq. (13.60) periodically
oscillates in time as we can see from Fig. 13.13. A detail computation

with κ1 = A2c − u12 . We find by direct numerical simulations that
the solution of Eq. (13.51) that satisfies the initial condition (13.67)
is in perfect agreement with the exact analytical solution (13.64), as
we can see from Fig. 13.19. Here, Fig. 13.19a shows the numerical
evolution of the magnetic rogue wave, while Fig. 13.19b compares the
magnon density generated with numerical solution and that generated
with exact analytical solution (13.64). From plots of Fig. 13.19, we
conclude that a small initial perturbation with a small modulation can
induce the generation and breakup of a near-ideal RW.

In the situation when we have parallel analyzer, that is, when either
nx = 1 or ny = 1, the nonlinear magnetization vector m will be
along the x− direction, which is possible only for θ = π/2 and
φ ∈ {0, π/2, π, 3π/2}. In the case of perpendicular analyzer, that is,
when nz = 1„ the nonlinear magnetization vector m will along the z
axis, if HK > 4π Ms , which is possible only when θ ∈ {0, π }. On the
contrary, the magnetization vector m lies in the film plane. In the pres-
ence of the current, the nonlinear magnetization vector m will deviate
from this equilibrium direction; let us denote by θ0 and φ0 the new
equilibrium direction. If we then excite the free magnetization by a
small ac, it will oscillate around θ0 and φ0 . Hence, we introduce the
ansatz
Now, if we insert ansatz (13.70) into equation (13.69) and keep only
the linear terms in θ , φ, and Jac , we arrive to the equilibrium
equations which yield the linear solution of m. We then find that the
new equilibrium direction of the free magnetization is determined by

Since θ and φ are complex quantities, the response of the free
magnetization to the alternating current includes two parts, namely,
the in-phase part and the out-of-phase part.
The ferromagnetic resonance signals in the experimental context
can be detected by a direct voltage generated through the rectification
of the ac by the time-dependent magneto-resistance [62, 63]. In this
context, the resistance of the device is assumed, when an ac is applied,
to vary with the precession of free magnetization [62] as follows:

and R0 and R are the resistance of the trilayer when the free and
pinned magnetization are parallel and the increase in resistance when
they become anti-parallel, respectively. If we denote by S the cross
section area of the device, the output direct voltage Vdc can then be
given in terms of the time-averaged value of RJac S cos [ωt] as

the effective anisotropy field for this material along the z axis yields
Hk − 4π Ms = 1986 Oe. For the above material, parameter aJ of the
spin-torque has the dimension of magnetic field. For example, comput-
ing aJ for the current density J = 0.2 A/μm2 , we find that aJ varies
from 538 Oe to 2186 Oe by changing the included angle between the
pinned and free magnetization. Setting the included angle to zero, aJ
takes the minimal value, while its maximum value is obtained for 180◦ .
In our discussion, we will take Jac = 0.01 A/μm2 . The correspond-
ing aac then ranges from 27 Oe to 110 Oe and satisfies that condition
aac (HK − 4π Ms ).
Rotating the coordinate system and making the y axis perpendicular
to the film plane avoid the singularity at θ = 0◦ . It is clearly seen from
Fig. 13.21 where Vdc / (RJac S) is depicted versus the ac frequency
that an increasing in the dc values from negative to positive values turns
the resonant peak sharper. When the current is above 0.089 A/mm2 , the
peak begins to become blunt, as we can clearly see in the inset (c) where
the line-width decreases with the increase in current from negative to
positive values and increases when Jdc > 0.089 A/mm2 . Depending
on the direction of the pinned magnetization and the current, the spin
torque acts as a damping torque or a precessional one, meaning that
it plays dual roles in driving the free magnetization. Also, Fig. 13.21
reveals that the dc can be used to control the effective damping. One
can see from inset (b) of Fig. 13.21 that the resonant frequency can be
adjusted by the dc. The maximum value of the frequency is reached at
Jdc = 0.003 A/mm2 and is found to be about 34.58 GHz.
Now, let us compare the ferromagnetic resonance modes of the per-
pendicular and parallel analyzers. For this aim, we have taken CoFeB
[64] as an example and depicted the spectra of trilayer with a parallel
analyzer in the inset (a) of Fig. 13.21 for θp = 60◦ and φp = 30◦ . As
we can see from different curves in inset (a), the resonance peak is
asymmetric [symmetric] for a parallel [perpendicular] analyzer. Here,
we can also see that independently on the direction of mp , the peak for
the perpendicular analyzer is always symmetric, which is not the case
for parallel analyzer.
Figure 13.22 shows the effects of the pinned magnetization direction
on the ferromagnetic resonance curves. The ferromagnetic resonance
peak in the (y, z) plane becomes blunter and blunter with the angle
θp increasing from 0◦ to 90◦ . As we can see from Fig. 13.22, one can

use both the magnitude of spin torque and changing the direction of
spin torque to control the ferromagnetic resonance. One can clearly
observe in Figs. 13.22a and b the variation of the equilibrium direction
of the free magnetization when the direction of spin torque changes.
Figure 13.22c and d showing the effects of θp on the resonant location
ωr and line-width ω reveal that the resonant location ωr and line-
width ω have the same behavior: they are the largest with mp in the
film and decrease when the pinned magnetization deviates from this
direction. Moreover, the line-width, as we can see from Fig. 13.22d, is
most in the parallel configuration.

We have thus obtain that depending on the spin polarized current and
external magnetic field, the switching from stable states to precessional
ones and the reversal between y and −y orientations can be realized.
As we can see from Fig. 13.24, the system enters the out-of-plane
precessional state without reference to the initial direction when β, h0 ,
and J are located in the region ‘OPP’. For β, h0 , and J are located
in ‘quasi-AP’ region, we find that the magnetization reversal from
‘quasi-P’ to ‘quasi-AP’ [‘quasi-AP’ to ‘quasi-P’] happens if the initial
direction is along the y [−y] axis.
As one can see from Fig. 13.24, the instability current becomes
weakly dependent on the field-like spin torque. The instability current
of each of quasi-antiparallel state and quasi-parallel state is inversely
proportional to the relative strength β of field-like torque to Slon-
czewski one; we found that this instability current can be decreased by
10% when we increase β from 0 to 1.
The validity of the phase diagram showed in Fig. 13.24 can be con-
firmed as follows. We randomly pick out three points a, b, and c
from Fig. 13.24 and plot the corresponding dynamic evolutions of the
free-layer magnetization in Fig. 13.25. Figures 13.25a and a show the
dynamic oscillating evolutions of the free-layer magnetization gener-
ated with the initial direction of free-layer magnetization along the y

from the inset of Fig. 13.26 that the velocity of magnetization pre-
cession diminishes with increasing field-like spin torque. Increasing
parameter β from 0 to 1 can decrease the precession frequency for
more than 10%. The dependence of precession frequency on β can
be analyzed qualitatively. From Eq. (13.68), the influence of the field-
like spin torque on precession is related to the directions of effec-
tive field and current. Here, the precession exists in the region that
heff = κmy + h0 < 0 and J < 0. Thus, the precession produced by the
field-like spin torque is opposite to the effective field-induced preces-
sion. Because the effective field-induced torque is the leading cause of
precession, the frequency decreases with increasing strength of field-
like spin torque.
