Suppression of transverse instabilities of dark solitons and their dispersive shock waves
arXiv:1201.6617 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.80.053803
Abstract
We investigate the impact of nonlocality, owing to diffusive behavior, on transverse instabilities of a dark stripe propagating in a defocusing cubic medium. The nonlocal response turns out to have a strongly stabilizing effect both in the case of a single soliton input and in the regime where dispersive shock waves develop "multisoliton regime". Such conclusions are supported by the linear stability analysis and numerical simulation of the propagation.
