Data-driven model reconstruction for nonlinear wave dynamics
Ekaterina Smolina, Lev Smirnov, Daniel Leykam +2
The use of machine learning to predict wave dynamics is a topic of growing interest, but commonly-used deep learning approaches suffer from a lack of interpretability of the traine…
Self-steepening-induced stabilization of nonlinear edge waves at photonic valley-Hall interfaces
Ekaterina O. Smolina, Lev A. Smirnov, Daniel Leykam +1
Localized nonlinear modes at valley-Hall interfaces in staggered photonic graphene can be described in the long-wavelength limit by a nonlinear Dirac-like model including spatial d…
Photonic quantum Hall effects
Daniel Leykam, Daria Smirnova
This article reviews the development of photonic analogues of quantum Hall effects, which have given rise to broad interest in topological phenomena in photonic systems over the pa…
Boosting Topological Zero Modes Using Elastomer Waveguide Arrays
Angelina Frank, Daniel Leykam, Daria A. Smirnova +2
We employ the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model in elastic polymer waveguide arrays to design and realize travelling topologically protected modes. The observed delocalization of the opti…
Gradient catastrophe of nonlinear photonic valley-Hall edge pulses
Daria A. Smirnova, Lev A. Smirnov, Ekaterina O. Smolina +2
We derive nonlinear wave equations describing the propagation of slowly-varying wavepackets formed by topological valley-Hall edge states. We show that edge pulses break up even in…
Parity anomaly laser
Daria A. Smirnova, Pramod Padmanabhan, Daniel Leykam
We propose a novel supersymmetry-inspired scheme for achieving robust single mode lasing in arrays of coupled microcavities, based on factorizing a given array Hamiltonian into its…
Exceptional points in topological edge spectrum of PT symmetric domain walls
Xiang Ni, Daria Smirnova, Alexander Poddubny +3
We demonstrate that the non-Hermitian parity-time (PT) symmetric interfaces formed between amplifying and lossy crystals support dissipationless edge states. These PT edge states e…
