Highly-asymmetric soliton complexes in parabolic optical lattices
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor V. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We introduce multipole soliton complexes in optical lattices induced by nondiffracting parabolic beams. Despite the symmetry-breaking dictated by the curvature of the lattice chann…
Ring surface waves in thermal nonlinear media
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We address ring-shaped surface waves supported by defocusing thermal media with circular cross-section. Such waves exist because of the balance between repulsion from the interface…
Resonant mode flopping in modulated waveguiding structures
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We put forward the concept of resonant, Rabi-like flopping and adiabatic transitions between confined light modes in properly modulated multimode waveguides. The phenomenon is show…
Soliton percolation in random optical lattices
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We introduce soliton percolation phenomena in the nonlinear transport of light packets in suitable optical lattices with random properties. Specifically, we address lattices with a…
Dynamics of surface solitons at the edge of chirped optical lattices
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We address soliton formation at the edge of chirped optical lattices imprinted in Kerr-type nonlinear media. We find families of power thresholdless surface waves that do not exist…
Rotating surface solitons
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We introduce a novel type of surface waves that form at the edge of guiding structures consisting of several concentric rings. Such surface waves rotate steadily upon propagation a…
