The subject of PT-symmetry and its areas of application have been blossoming over the past decade. Here, we consider a nonlinear Schrodinger model with a complex potential that can be tuned controllably away from being PT-symmetric, as it might be the case in realistic applications. We utilize two parameters: the first one breaks PT-symmetry but retains a proportionality between the imaginary and the derivative of the real part of the potential; the second one, detunes from this latter proportionality. It is shown that the departure of the potential from the PT -symmetric form does not allow for the numerical identification of exact stationary solutions. Nevertheless, it is of crucial importance to consider the dynamical evolution of initial beam profiles. In that light, we define a suitable notion of optimization and find that even for non PT-symmetric cases, the beam dynamics, both in 1D and 2D -although prone to weak growth or decay- suggests that the optimized profiles do not change significantly under propagation for specific parameter regimes.
The existence of stationary solitary waves in symmetric and non-symmetric complex potentials is studied by means of Melnikovs perturbation method. The latter provides analytical conditions for the existence of such waves that bifurcate from the homog
By rearrangements of waveguide arrays with gain and losses one can simulate transformations among parity-time (PT-) symmetric systems not affecting their pure real linear spectra. Subject to such transformations, however, the nonlinear properties of
We study the nonlinear Schr$ddot{o}$dinger equation with a PT-symmetric potential. Using a hydrodynamic formulation and connecting the phase gradient to the field amplitude, allows for a reduction of the model to a Duffing or a generalized Duffing eq
This note examines Gross-Pitaevskii equations with PT-symmetric potentials of the Wadati type: $V=-W^2+iW_x$. We formulate a recipe for the construction of Wadati potentials supporting exact localised solutions. The general procedure is exemplified b
Existence and stability of PT-symmetric gap solitons in a periodic structure with defocusing nonlocal nonlinearity are studied both theoretically and numerically. We find that, for any degree of nonlocality, gap solitons are always unstable in the pr
