The collapse of self-focusing waves described by the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation
and the Zakharov equations in nonlinear optics and plasma turbulence is reviewed. Special …

A survey of some recent theoretical and experimental studies on localized structures that
form and propagate in a broad class of optical and matter-wave media is presented. The …

A brief review is given of some well-known and some very recent results obtained in studies
of two-and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) solitons. Both zero-vorticity (fundamental) …

We present a survey of some recent theoretical and experimental studies on nonlinear
waves that form and propagate in a broad class of optical and matterwave media. The article …

The current research into solitons and their use in fiber optic communications is very
important to the future of communications. Since the advent of computer networking and …

We perform a survey of some recent theoretical and experimental studies on
multidimensional (two-and three-dimensional) localized structures in optical and matter …

Solitons are non-dispersing localized waves that occur in diverse physical settings,
including liquids, optical fibres, plasmas and condensed matter. They attract interest owing …

In physics, wave propagation is traditionally analyzed by means of regular solutions of wave
equations. However, solutions of wave equations in two and three dimensions often possess …

Despite remarkable developments in the field, a detailed treatment of non-Kerr law media
has not been published. Introduction to non-Kerr Law Optical Solitons is the first book …

Using mW light beams to generate spatial solitons in nematic liquid crystals, all-optical
switching/logic can be performed on a signal launched in the soliton-induced waveguides …
