Compressive Split-Step Fourier Method

In this paper an approach for decreasing the computational effort required for the split-step Fourier method (SSFM) is introduced. It is shown that using the sparsity property of the simulated signals, the compressive sampling algorithm can be used as a very efficient tool for the split-step spectral simulations of various phenomena which can be modeled by using differential equations. The proposed method depends on the idea of using a smaller number of spectral components compared to the classical split-step Fourier method with a high number of components. After performing the time integration with a smaller number of spectral components and using the compressive sampling technique with l1 minimization, it is shown that the sparse signal can be reconstructed with a significantly better efficiency compared to the classical split-step Fourier method. Proposed method can be named as compressive split-step Fourier method (CSSFM). For testing of the proposed method the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation and its one-soliton and two-soliton solutions are considered

Self-Localized Solutions of the Kundu-Eckhaus Equation in Nonlinear Waveguides

In this paper we numerically analyze the 1D self-localized solutions of the Kundu-Eckhaus equation (KEE) in nonlinear waveguides using the spectral renormalization method (SRM) and compare our findings with those solutions of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE). We show that single, dual and N-soliton solutions exist for the case with zero optical potentials, i.e. V=0. We also show that these soliton solutions do not exist, at least for a range of parameters, for the photorefractive lattices with optical potentials in the form of V=Io cos^2(x) for cubic nonlinearity. However, self-stable solutions of the KEE with saturable nonlinearity do exist for some range of parameters. We compare our findings for the KEE with those of the NLSE and discuss our results.Comment: Typos are corrected, 8 figures are adde

Early Detection of Rogue Waves by the Wavelet Transforms

We discuss the possible advantages of using the wavelet transform over the Fourier transform for the early detection of rogue waves. We show that the triangular wavelet spectra of the rogue waves can be detected at early stages of the development of rogue waves in a chaotic wave field. Compared to the Fourier spectra, the wavelet spectra is capable of detecting not only the emergence of a rogue wave but also its possible spatial (or temporal) location. Due to this fact, wavelet transform is also capable of predicting the characteristic distances between successive rogue waves. Therefore multiple simultaneous breaking of the successive rogue waves on ships or on the offshore structures can be predicted and avoided by smart designs and operations

Rogue Quantum Harmonic Oscillations

We show the existence and investigate the dynamics and statistics of rogue oscillations (standing waves) generated in the frame of the nonlinear quantum harmonic oscillator (NQHO). With this motivation, in this paper, we develop a split-step Fourier scheme for the computational analysis of NQHO. We show that modulation instability excites the generation of rogue oscillations in the frame of the NQHO. We also discuss the effects of various parameters such as the strength of trapping well potential, nonlinearity, dissipation, fundamental wave number and perturbation amplitude on rogue oscillation formation probabilities

Energy spectrum for two-dimensional potentials in very high magnetic fields

A method, analogous to supersymmetry transformation in quantum mechanics, is developed for a particle in the lowest Landau level moving in an arbitrary potential. The method is applied to two-dimensional potentials formed by Dirac delta scattering centers. In the periodic case, the problem is solved exactly for rational values of the magnetic flux (in units of flux quantum) per unit cell. The spectrum is found to be self-similar, resembling the Hofstadter butterfly.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures, REVTEX, to appear in Phys. Rev. B, Sep. 1
