Exploring the Dynamics of Nonlocal Nonlinear Waves: Analytical Insights into the Extended Kadomtsev-Petviashvili Model

Abstract

The study of nonlocal nonlinear systems and their dynamics is a rapidly increasing field of research. In this study, we take a closer look at the extended nonlocal Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (enKP) model through a systematic analysis of explicit solutions. Using a superposed bilinearization approach, we obtained a bilinear form of the enKP equation and constructed soliton solutions. Our findings show that the nature of the resulting nonlinear waves, including the amplitude, width, localization, and velocity, can be controlled by arbitrary solution parameters. The solutions exhibited both symmetric and asymmetric characteristics, including localized bell-type bright solitons, superposed kink-bell-type and antikink-bell-type soliton profiles. The solitons arising in this nonlocal model only undergo elastic interactions while maintaining their initial identities and shifting phases. Additionally, we demonstrated the possibility of generating bound-soliton molecules and breathers with appropriately chosen soliton parameters. The results of this study offer valuable insights into the dynamics of localized nonlinear waves in higher-dimensional nonlocal nonlinear models.

Routes to chaos in a mass-conserving two-species reaction-diffusion model

Mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems with two species correspond to a seemingly simple case where pattern formation occurs under the influence of a conservation law. Here, we first revisit their linear stability behavior and point out that generically two instabilities can occur: a stationary large-scale mass-conserving (Cahn-Hilliard) instability and an instability that combines features of a stationary large-scale non-mass-conserving (Allen-Cahn) instability and a oscillatory large-scale mass-conserving (conserved-Hopf) instability. We term it an Allen-Cahn-Hopf instability. Second, we investigate the nonlinear dynamics for a specific model related to the formation of cell polarization where only a Cahn-Hilliard instability can occur, i.e., all primary bifurcations are stationary. We analyze how secondary and further bifurcations subsequently give rise to various oscillatory states. The emerging rich spectrum of spatiotemporal behavior includes several period-doubling cascades related to different forms of spatial and temporal symmetry breaking. Beside regular states, three types of low-dimensional spatiotemporal chaos occur and involve transitions like fusion and an outer crises. Our results demonstrate the importance of nonlinear interactions in the dynamics of mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems, and show that even a simple two-species system with primary bifurcations of Cahn-Hilliard type can show complex spatiotemporal behavior.

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.
