Eliminating the transverse instabilities of kerr solitons

We show analytically, numerically, and experimentally that a transversely stable one-dimensional [(1+1)D] bright Kerr soliton can exist in a 3D bulk medium. The transverse instability of the soliton is completely eliminated if it is made sufficiently incoherent along the transverse dimension. We derive a criterion for the threshold of transverse instability that links the nonlinearity to the largest transverse correlation distance for which the 1D soliton is stable.

Composite multihump vector solitons carrying topological charge

We propose composite solitons carrying topological charge: multicomponent two dimensional [ (2+1)D] vector (Manakov-like) solitons for which at least one component carries topological charge. These multimode solitons can have a single hump or exhibit a multihump structure. The "spin" carried by these multimode composite solitons suggests 3D soliton interactions in which the particlelike behavior includes spin, in addition to effective mass, linear, and angular momenta.

Dynamic quasicrystalline patterns: wave-mode-turing-mode resonance with turing-mode self-interaction

We study perturbatively the effect of resonant Turing-mode interactions on the slow time evolution of quasicrystalline patterns sustained by resonant interaction between wave and static composite modes. We find that stabilization of quasicrystalline patterns by quadratic wave-mode-Turing-mode interactions is possible even under the action of weak destabilizing Turing-mode self-interactions.
