RESUMEN
A generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation is studied with the interplay between Kerr nonlinearity and intensity-dependent dispersion. The supported soliton solutions are characterized analytically in different families by the pseudo-potential method, in terms of Maimistov and Cuspon solitons for different ratio between the intensity-dependent dispersion and Kerr nonlinearity. Direct numerical simulations also agree with our analytical formulas. In addition to the well-studied Kerr-type nonlinearity, our results reveal an unexplored scenario with the introduction of the nonlinear corrections to wave dispersion.
RESUMEN
Soliton solutions are studied for paraxial wave propagation with intensity-dependent dispersion. Although the corresponding Lagrangian density has a singularity, analytical solutions, derived by the pseudo-potential method and the corresponding phase diagram, exhibit one- and two-humped solitons with almost perfect agreement to numerical solutions. The results obtained in this work reveal a hitherto unexplored area of soliton physics associated with nonlinear corrections to wave dispersion.
