Non-Lagrangian approach for coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau systems with higher order-dispersion

Abstract

It is known that after a particular distance of evolution in fiber lasers, two (input) asymmetric soliton like pulses emerge as two (output) symmetric pulses having same and constant energy. We report such a compensation technique in dispersion managed fiber lasers by means of a semi-analytical method known as collective variable approach (CVA) with including third-order dispersion (TOD). The minimum length of fiber laser, at which the output symmetric pulses are obtained from the input asymmetric ones, is calculated for each and every pulse parameters numerically by employing Runge-Kutta fourth order method. The impacts of intercore linear coupling, asymmetric nature of initial parameters and TOD on the evolution of pulse parameters and on the minimum length are also investigated. It is found that strong intercore linear coupling and asymmetric nature of input pulse parameters result in the reduction of fiber laser length. Also, the role of TOD tends to increase the width of the pulses as well as their energies. Besides, chaotic patterns and bifurcation points on the minimum length of the fiber owing to the impact of TOD are also reported in a nutshell.

Duck hunting with quantum mechanics

We bridge two sides of singular perturbation theory: the classical theory of slow-fast systems and the semi-classical approach to quantum mechanical systems. For a specific but physically important class of dynamical systems, we show that purely classical and exotic objects, so-called canard solutions, are shadows of instantons in the corresponding quantum system. We demonstrate that canard solutions exist in a domain of parameter space whose boundaries are determined by an instanton action. We illustrate our statements analytically for the relevant example, the overdamped Josephson junction, and confirm them numerically. For the Josephson junction, the canard window is the exponentially narrow gap between consecutive Shapiro steps.

Rolls and Snaking in a Swift-Hohenberg Equation with Non-smooth Nonlinearity

We study rolls and homoclinic snaking in a variation of the one-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg equation, whose standard forms are prototypical order-parameter models for pattern formation in the sciences. Motivated by classes of differential equation models that involve continuous non-smooth low order nonlinear terms, we replace the standard quadratic-cubic nonlinearity by $ν|u|^α-u^3$, $α\in [1,2]$ with $ν> 0$. In the vicinity of zero, for $α<2$ this nonlinearity falls outside the scope of classical Taylor expansion and bifurcation analysis. Our partially analytical and partially numerical results highlight that the non-smooth term modifies the criticality of pattern-forming bifurcations and alters the associated branches of solutions. In particular, $α\in(1,2)$ implies subcriticality of roll bifurcations for any $ν>0$. At $α=1$ differentiability is lost, which has a strong impact on the bifurcations of sign-changing rolls including the disappearance of homoclinic snaking. Homoclinic snaking thus emerges non-smoothly as $α$ increases from $α=1$, and persists when retaining an additional, e.g., quadratic term.
