Abstract The cubic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is one of the most-studied nonlinear
equations in the physics community. It describes a vast variety of phenomena from nonlinear …

Spatial solitons, beams that do not spread owing to diffraction when they propagate, have
been demonstrated to exist by virtue of a variety of nonlinear self-trapping mechanisms …

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 present an overview of nonlinear phenomena related to optical quadratic solitons—
intrinsically multi-component localized states of light, which can exist in media without …

Solitons are self-localized wave packets arising from a robust balance between dispersion
and nonlinearity. They are a universal phenomenon, exhibiting properties typically …

The present review summarizes experimental and theoretical work dealing with self-
organized solitary localized structures (LSs) that are observed in spatially extended …

We introduce a class of spiraling anomalous vortex beam (AVB) arrays in strongly nonlocal
nonlinear media. The general analytical formula for the arrays is derived, and its …

We introduce the concept of soliton clusters—multisoliton bound states in a homogeneous
bulk optical medium—and reveal a key physical mechanism for their stabilization associated …

Using analytical and numerical approaches we study clusters of the two-dimensional
localized structures of light excited in the externally driven optical cavities. Stability and …
