    Exact solutions to the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation

    Full text link
    A method is given to construct globally analytic (in space and time) exact solutions to the focusing cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation on the line. An explicit formula and its equivalents are presented to express such exact solutions in a compact form in terms of matrix exponentials. Such exact solutions can alternatively be written explicitly as algebraic combinations of exponential, trigonometric, and polynomial functions of the spatial and temporal coordinates.Comment: 60 pages, 18 figure

    Explicit and Exact Solutions to a Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov Equation

    Full text link
    Some explicit traveling wave solutions to a Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation are presented through two ans\"atze. By a Cole-Hopf transformation, this Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation is also written as a bilinear equation and further two solutions to describe nonlinear interaction of traveling waves are generated. B\"acklund transformations of the linear form and some special cases are considered.Comment: 14pages, Latex, to appear in Intern. J. Nonlinear Mechanics, the original latex file is not complet

    Multi-Caloron solutions

    Get PDF
    We discuss the construction of multi-caloron solutions with non-trivial holonomy, both as approximate superpositions and exact self-dual solutions. The charge k SU(n) moduli space can be described by kn constituent monopoles. Exact solutions help us to understand how these constituents can be seen as independent objects, which seems not possible with the approximate superposition. An "impurity scattering" calculation provides relatively simple expressions. Like at zero temperature an explicit parametrization requires solving a quadratic ADHM constraint, achieved here for a class of axially symmetric solutions. We will discuss the properties of these exact solutions in detail, but also demonstrate that interesting results can be obtained without explicitly solving for the constraint.Comment: 31 pages, 7 figures (in 19 parts

    Detailed description of accelerating, simple solutions of relativistic perfect fluid hydrodynamics

    Get PDF
    In this paper we describe in full details a new family of recently found exact solutions of relativistic, perfect fluid dynamics. With an ansatz, which generalizes the well-known Hwa-Bjorken solution, we obtain a wide class of new exact, explicit and simple solutions, which have a remarkable advantage as compared to presently known exact and explicit solutions: they do not lack acceleration. They can be utilized for the description of the evolution of the matter created in high energy heavy ion collisions. Because these solutions are accelerating, they provide a more realistic picture than the well-known Hwa-Bjorken solution, and give more insight into the dynamics of the matter. We exploit this by giving an advanced simple estimation of the initial energy density of the produced matter in high energy collisions, which takes acceleration effects (i.e. the work done by the pressure and the modified change of the volume elements) into account. We also give an advanced estimation of the life-time of the reaction. Our new solutions can also be used to test numerical hydrodynamical codes reliably. In the end, we also give an exact, 1+1 dimensional, relativistic hydrodynamical solution, where the initial pressure and velocity profile is arbitrary, and we show that this general solution is stable for perturbations.Comment: 34 pages, 8 figures, detailed write-up of http://arxiv.org/abs/nucl-th/0605070

    Solution generating in scalar-tensor theories with a massless scalar field and stiff perfect fluid as a source

    Get PDF
    We present a method for generating solutions in some scalar-tensor theories with a minimally coupled massless scalar field or irrotational stiff perfect fluid as a source. The method is based on the group of symmetries of the dilaton-matter sector in the Einstein frame. In the case of Barker's theory the dilaton-matter sector possesses SU(2) group of symmetries. In the case of Brans-Dicke and the theory with "conformal coupling", the dilaton- matter sector has SL(2,R)SL(2,R) as a group of symmetries. We describe an explicit algorithm for generating exact scalar-tensor solutions from solutions of Einstein-minimally-coupled-scalar-field equations by employing the nonlinear action of the symmetry group of the dilaton-matter sector. In the general case, when the Einstein frame dilaton-matter sector may not possess nontrivial symmetries we also present a solution generating technique which allows us to construct exact scalar-tensor solutions starting with the solutions of Einstein-minimally-coupled-scalar-field equations. As an illustration of the general techniques, examples of explicit exact solutions are constructed. In particular, we construct inhomogeneous cosmological scalar-tensor solutions whose curvature invariants are everywhere regular in space-time. A generalization of the method for scalar-tensor-Maxwell gravity is outlined.Comment: 10 pages,Revtex; v2 extended version, new parts added and some parts rewritten, results presented more concisely, some simple examples of homogeneous solutions replaced with new regular inhomogeneous solutions, typos corrected, references and acknowledgements added, accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.

    We present a new class of exact homogeneous cosmological solutions with a radiation fluid for all scalar-tensor theories. The solutions belong to Bianchi type VIhVI_{h} cosmologies. Explicit examples of nonsingular homogeneous scalar-tensor cosmologies are also given.Comment: 7 pages, LaTex; v2 type mistakes corrected, comments adde

    Cylindrical solutions in Mimetic gravity

    Get PDF
    This paper is devoted to investigate cylindrical solutions in mimetic gravity. The explicit forms of the metric of this theory, namely mimetic-Kasner (say) have been obtained. In this study we have noticed that the Kasner's family of exact solutions needs to be reconsidered under this type of modified gravity. A no-go theorem is proposed for the exact solutions in the presence of a cosmological constant.Comment: 8 pages, Title changed,references added, final version accepted in the" European Physical Journal C

    Solution generating in 5D Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity and derivation of dipole black ring solutions

    Get PDF
    We consider 5D Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton (EMd) gravity in spacetimes with three commuting Killing vectors: one timelike and two spacelike Killing vectors, one of which is hypersurface-orthogonal. Assuming a special ansatz for the Maxwell field we show that the 2-dimensional reduced EMd equations are completely integrable. We also develop a solution generating method for explicit construction of exact EMd solutions from known exact solutions of 5D vacuum Einstein equations with considered symmetries. We derive explicitly the rotating dipole black ring solutions as a particular application of the solution generating method.Comment: LaTex, 17 pages; v1 typos corrected, comments added; JHE
