Perturbation theory for kinks of the defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries equation

Nicholas J. Ossi, Barbara Prinari, Theodoros P. Horikis +1

In this work we develop an integrable perturbation theory for the defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries kink solution based on the squared eigenfunction expansion associated with t…

On shallow water non-convex dispersive hydrodynamics: the extended KdV model

Saleh Baqer, Theodoros P. Horikis, Dimitrios J. Frantzeskakis

In this work, we investigate non-classical wavetrain formations, and particularly dispersive shock waves (DSWs), or undular bores, in systems exhibiting non-convex dispersion. Our…

Nonlinear instability and solitons in a self-gravitating fluid

G. N. Koutsokostas, S. Sypsas, O. Evnin +2

We study a spherical, self-gravitating fluid model, which finds applications in cosmic structure formation. We argue that since the system features nonlinearity and gravity-induced…

Extended shallow water wave equations

Theodoros P. Horikis, Dimitrios J. Frantzeskakis, Noel F. Smyth

Extended shallow water wave equations are derived, using the method of asymptotic expansions, from the Euler (or water wave) equations. These extended models are valid one order be…

Nematic dispersive shock waves from nonlocal to local

Saleh Baqer, Dimitrios J. Frantzeskakis, Theodoros Horikis +3

The structure of optical dispersive shock waves in nematic liquid crystals is investigated as the power of the optical beam is varied, with six regimes identified, which complement…
