Soliton Management in Periodic Systems (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

In a field of study that is still in intensive development, this book provides a unique and informative snapshot of the state of the art. The volume opens with a review of the existence of robust solitons and soliton-like solitary pulses in systems built as a periodic concatenation of very different elements. Among the most famous examples are the dispersion management (DM) in fiber-optic telecommunication links, and more recently, photonic crystals. A number of other systems belonging to the same broad class of periodic strongly inhomogeneous systems (such as tandem models, the split-step model, etc.) have recently been investigated in nonlinear optics.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "The book under review makes its appearance about a decade after its subject became one of the hot topics in nonlinear wave theory. ... The book contains a comprehensive review of the respective theoretical results obtained using either numerical methods or the semi-analytical variational approach. ... The timely appearance of this book, as well as the wide range of physical problems addressed, makes the work a valuable reference for a broad audience interested in recent developments in the theory of nonlinear waves and its applications."
