We consider the dynamics and stability of bright soliton stripes in the two-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation with hyperbolic dispersion, under the action of transverse perturbations. We start by discussing a recently proposed adiabatic-invariant approximation for transverse instabilities and its limitations in the bright soliton case. We then focus on a variational approximation used to reduce the dynamics of the bright-soliton stripe to effective equations of motion for its transverse shift. The reduction allows us to address the stripes snaking instability, which is inherently present in the system, and follow the ensuing spatiotemporal undulation dynamics. Further, introducing a channel-shaped potential, we show that the instabilities (not only flexural, but also those of the necking type) can be attenuated, up to the point of complete stabilization of the soliton stripe.

We study the dynamics and pairwise interactions of dark soliton stripes in the two-dimensional defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation. By employing a variational approach we reduce the dynamics for dark soliton stripes to a set of coupled one-dimensional filament equations of motion for the position and velocity of the stripe. The method yields good qualitative agreement with the numerical results as regards the transverse instability of the stripes. We propose a phenomenological amendment that also significantly improves the quantitative agreement of the method with the computations. Subsequently, the method is extended for a pair of symmetric dark soliton stripes that include the mutual interactions between the filaments. The reduced equations of motion are compared with a recently proposed adiabatic invariant method and its corresponding findings and are found to provide a more adequate representation of the original full dynamics for a wide range of cases encompassing perturbations with long and short wavelengths, and combinations thereof.
Solitons and breathers are localized solutions of integrable systems that can be viewed as particles of complex statistical objects called soliton and breather gases. In view of the growing evidence of their ubiquity in fluids and nonlinear optical media these integrable gases present fundamental interest for nonlinear physics. We develop analytical theory of breather and soliton gases by considering a special, thermodynamic type limit of the wavenumber-frequency relations for multi-phase (finite-gap) solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation. This limit is defined by the locus and the critical scaling of the band spectrum of the associated Zakharov-Shabat operator and yields the nonlinear dispersion relations for a spatially homogeneous breather or soliton gas, depending on the presence or absence of the background Stokes mode. The key quantity of interest is the density of states defining, in principle, all spectral and statistical properties of a soliton (breather) gas. The balance of terms in the nonlinear dispersion relations determines the nature of the gas: from an ideal gas of well separated, non-interacting breathers (solitons) to a special limiting state, which we term breather (soliton) condensate, and whose properties are entirely determined by the pairwise interactions between breathes (solitons). For a non-homogeneous breather gas, we derive a full set of kinetic equations describing slow evolution of the density of states and of its carrier wave counterpart. The kinetic equation for soliton gas is recovered by collapsing the Stokes spectral band. A number of concrete examples of breather and soliton gases are considered, demonstrating efficacy of the developed general theory with broad implications for nonlinear optics, superfluids and oceanography.
We discuss the finite-time collapse, also referred as blow-up, of the solutions of a discrete nonlinear Schr{o}dinger (DNLS) equation incorporating linear and nonlinear gain and loss. This DNLS system appears in many inherently discrete physical contexts as a more realistic generalization of the Hamiltonian DNLS lattice. By using energy arguments in finite and infinite dimensional phase spaces (as guided by the boundary conditions imposed), we prove analytical upper and lower bounds for the collapse time, valid for both the defocusing and focusing cases of the model. In addition, the existence of a critical value in the linear loss parameter is underlined, separating finite time-collapse from energy decay. The numerical simulations, performed for a wide class of initial data, not only verified the validity of our bounds, but also revealed that the analytical bounds can be useful in identifying two distinct types of collapse dynamics, namely, extended or localized. Pending on the discreteness /amplitude regime, the system exhibits either type of collapse and the actual blow-up times approach, and in many cases are in excellent agreement, with the upper or the lower bound respectively. When these times lie between the analytical bounds, they are associated with a nontrivial mixing of the above major types of collapse dynamics, due to the corroboration of defocusing/focusing effects and energy gain/loss, in the presence of discreteness and nonlinearity.
The semiclassical limit of a nonlinear focusing Schrodinger equation in presence of nonconstant electric and magnetic potentials V,A is studied by taking as initial datum the ground state solution of an associated autonomous elliptic equation. The concentration curve of the solutions is a parameterization of the solutions of a Newton ODE involving the electric force as well as the magnetic force via the Lorenz law of electrodynamics.
We discuss spatial dynamics and collapse scenarios of localized waves governed by the nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation with nonlocal nonlinearity. Firstly, we prove that for arbitrary nonsingular attractive nonlocal nonlinear interaction in arbitrary dimension collapse does not occur. Then we study in detail the effect of singular nonlocal kernels in arbitrary dimension using both, Lyapunoffs method and virial identities. We find that for for a one-dimensional case, i.e. for $n=1$, collapse cannot happen for nonlocal nonlinearity. On the other hand, for spatial dimension $ngeq2$ and singular kernel $sim 1/r^alpha$, no collapse takes place if $alpha<2$, whereas collapse is possible if $alphage2$. Self-similar solutions allow us to find an expression for the critical distance (or time) at which collapse should occur in the particular case of $sim 1/r^2$ kernels. Moreover, different evolution scenarios for the three dimensional physically relevant case of Bose Einstein condensate are studied numerically for both, the ground state and a higher order toroidal state with and without an additional local repulsive nonlinear interaction. In particular, we show that presence of an additional local repulsive term can prevent collapse in those cases.
