The interacting atom-molecule BEC (AMBEC) dynamics is investigated in the mean field ap- proach. The presence of atom-atom, atom-molecule and molecule-molecule interactions, coupled with a characteristically different interaction representing atom-molecule interconversion, endows this system with nonlinearities, which differ significantly from the standard Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation. Exact localized solutions are found to belong to two distinct classes. The first ones are analogous to the soliton solutions of the weakly coupled GP equation, whereas the second non- equivalent class is related to the solitons of the strongly coupled BEC. Distinct parameter domains characterize these solitons, some of which are analogous to the complex profile Bloch solitons in magnetic systems. These localized solutions are found to represent a variety of phenomena, which include co-existence of both atom-molecule complex and miscible-immiscible phases. Numerical sta- bility is explicitly checked, as also the stability analysis based on the study of quantum uctuations around our solutions. We also find out the domain of modulation instability in this system.

A powerful set of universal relations, centered on a quantity called the contact, connects the strength of short-range two-body correlations to the thermodynamics of a many-body system with delta-function interactions. We report on measurements of th e contact, using RF spectroscopy, for an $^{85}$Rb atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). For bosons, the fact that contact spectroscopy can be used to probe the gas on short timescales is useful given the decreasing stability of BECs with increasing interactions. A complication is the added possibility, for bosons, of three-body interactions. In investigating this issue, we have located an Efimov resonance for $^{85}$Rb atoms with loss measurements and thus determined the three-body interaction parameter. In our contact spectroscopy, in a region of observable beyond-mean-field effects, we find no measurable contribution from three-body physics.
We developed a comprehensive semiclassical theory of solitons in one dimensional systems at BCS-BEC crossover to provide a semiclassical explanation of their excitation spectra. Our semiclassical results agree well with the exact solutions on both th e deep BCS and deep BEC side and explain qualitatively the smooth crossover between them. Especially, we showed that the minimum energy of the $S=1/2$ excitation is achieved exactly at the Fermi momentum $k_F=pi n/2$, where $nm_F$ ($m_F$ is the mass of the fermionic atom) is the total mass density of the system. This momentum remains unchanged along the whole crossover, whether the mass is contained in the bosonic molecules as on the deep BEC side or in the fermionic atoms as on the deep BCS side. This phenomenon comes about as a result of a special feature of one dimensional systems that the conventional quasiparticle is not stable with respect to soliton formation. It is valid not only in exactly solvable models but also on the level of semiclassical theory. Besides, we also resolved the inconsistency of existing semiclassical theory with the exact solution of soliton-like $S=0$ excitations on the deep BCS side by a new proposal of soliton configuration.
We develop stability analysis for matter-wave solitons in a two-dimensional (2D) Bose-Einstein condensate loaded in an optical lattice (OL), to which periodic time modulation is applied, in different forms. The stability is studied by dint of the var iational approximation and systematic simulations. For solitons in the semi-infinite gap, well-defined stability patterns are produced under the action of the attractive nonlinearity, clearly exhibiting the presence of resonance frequencies. The analysis is reported for several time-modulation formats, including the case of in-phase modulations of both quasi-1D sublattices, which build the 2D square-shaped OL, and setups with asynchronous modulation of the sublattices. In particular, when the modulations of two sublattices are phase-shifted by {delta}={pi}/2, the stability map is not improved, as the originally well-structured stability pattern becomes fuzzy and the stability at high modulation frequencies is considerably reduced. Mixed results are obtained for anti-phase modulations of the sublattices ({delta}={pi}), where extended stability regions are found for low modulation frequencies, but for high frequencies the stability is weakened. The analysis is also performed in the case of the repulsive nonlinearity, for solitons in the first finite bandgap. It is concluded that, even though stability regions may be found, distinct stability boundaries for the gap solitons cannot be identified clearly. Finally, the stability is also explored for vortex solitons of both the square-shaped and rhombic types (i.e., off- and on-site-centered ones).
We study the dynamics of binary Bose-Einstein condensates made of ultracold and dilute alkali-metal atoms in a quasi-one-dimensional setting. Numerically solving the two coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations which accurately describe the system dynamics , we demonstrate that the spin transport can be controlled by suitably quenching spin-orbit (SO) and Rabi coupling strengths. Moreover, we predict a variety of dynamical features induced by quenching: broken oscillations, breathers-like oscillating patterns, spin-mixing-demixing, miscible-immiscible transition, emerging dark-bright states, dark solitons, and spin-trapping dynamics. We also outline the experimental relevance of the present study in manipulating the spin states in $^{39}$K condensates.
We explore stability regions for solitons in the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with a spatially confined region carrying a combination of self-focusing cubic and septimal terms, with a quintic one of either focusing or defocusing sign. This setting can be implemented in optical waveguides based on colloids of nanoparticles. The solitons stability is identified by solving linearized equations for small perturbations, and is found to fully comply with the Vakhitov-Kolokolov criterion. In the limit case of tight confinement of the nonlinearity, results are obtained in an analytical form, approximating the confinement profile by a delta-function. It is found that the confinement greatly increases the largest total power of stable solitons, in the case when the quintic term is defocusing, which suggests a possibility to create tightly confined high-power light beams guided by the spatial modulation of the local nonlinearity strength.
