Multistability and coexisting soliton combs in ring resonators: the Lugiato-Lefever approach

Abstract

We are reporting that the Lugiato-Lefever equation describing the frequency comb generation in ring resonators with the localized pump and loss terms also describes the simultaneous nonlinear resonances leading to the multistability of nonlinear modes and coexisting solitons that are associated with the spectrally distinct frequency combs.
