Parametrically Driven Dark Solitons: A Numerical Study

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3401))

Abstract

We show that unlike the bright solitons, the parametrically driven kinks of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation are immune from instabilities for all damping and forcing amplitudes; they can also form stable bound states. In the undamped case, the two types of kinks and their complexes can stably travel with nonzero velocities. The bistability of the Bloch and Néel walls within the NLS contrasts the properties of these solutions within the Ginzburg-Landau equation, where they cannot stably coexist.
