Bose-Einstein condensates with F=1 and F=2. Reductions and soliton interactions of multi-component NLS models

We analyze a class of multicomponent nonlinear Schrodinger equations (MNLS) related to the symmetric BD.I-type symmetric spaces and their reductions. We briefly outline the direct and the inverse scattering method for the relevant Lax operators and the soliton solutions. We use the Zakharov-Shabat dressing method to obtain the two-soliton solution and analyze the soliton interactions of the MNLS equations and some of their reductions.

Exact solutions for a class of integrable Henon-Heiles-type systems

We study the exact solutions of a class of integrable Henon-Heiles-type systems (according to the analysis of Bountis et al. (1982)). These solutions are expressed in terms of two-dimensional Kleinian functions. Special periodic solutions are expressed in terms of the well-known Weierstrass function. We extend some of our results to a generalized Henon-Heiles-type system with n+1 degrees of freedom.

Fordy-Kulish models and spinor Bose-Einstein condensates

A three-component nonlinear Schrodinger-type model which describes spinor Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is considered. This model is integrable by the inverse scattering method and using Zakharov-Shabat dressing method we obtain three types of soliton solutions. The multi-component nonlinear Schrodinger type models related to symmetric spaces C.I Sp(4)/U(2) is studied.

How many types of soliton solutions do we know?

We consider several ways of how one could classify the various types of soliton solutions related to nonlinear evolution equations which are solvable by the inverse scattering method. In doing so we make use of the fundamental analytic solutions, the dressing procedure, the reduction technique and other tools characteristic for that method.

The Manakov system as two moving interacting curves

The two time-dependent Schrodinger equations in a potential V(s,u), $u$ denoting time, can be interpreted geometrically as a moving interacting curves whose Fermi-Walker phase density is given by -dV/ds. The Manakov model appears as two moving interacting curves using extended da Rios system and two Hasimoto transformations.

New Lax pair for restricted multiple three wave interaction system, quasiperiodic solutions and bi-hamiltonian structure

We study restricted multiple three wave interaction system by the inverse scattering method. We develop the algebraic approach in terms of classical $r$-matrix and give an interpretation of the Poisson brackets as linear $r$-matrix algebra. The solutions are expressed in terms of polynomials of theta functions. In particular case for $n=1$ in terms of Weierstrass functions.

Nonlinear waves and related nonintegrable and integrable systems

Spectral method related to Lame equation with finite-gap potential is used to study the optical cascading equations. These equations are known not to be integrable by inverse scattering method. Due to "partial integrability" two-gap solutions are obtained in terms of products of elliptic functions and are classified in five different families related to eigenvalues of appropriate spectral problem. In special cases, when periodic solutions reduce to localized solitary waves, previously known phase-locked solutions are recovered, and additional one solution is obtained. For vector nonlinear Schrodinger equation n=3 we present exact solutions in a form of multicomponent cnoidal waves.

New Integrable Multi-Component NLS Type Equations on Symmetric Spaces: Z_4 and Z_6 Reductions

The reductions of the multi-component nonlinear Schrodinger (MNLS) type models related to C.I and D.III type symmetric spaces are studied. We pay special attention to the MNLS related to the sp(4), so(10) and so(12) Lie algebras. The MNLS related to sp(4) is a three-component MNLS which finds applications to Bose-Einstein condensates. The MNLS related to so(12) and so(10) Lie algebras after convenient Z_6 or Z_4 reductions reduce to three and four-component MNLS showing new types of chi ^(3)-interactions that are integrable. We briefly explain how these new types of MNLS can be integrated by the inverse scattering method. The spectral properties of the Lax operators L and the corresponding recursion operator Lambda are outlined. Applications to spinor model of Bose-Einstein condensates are discussed.

Adiabatic N-soliton interactions of Bose-Einstein condensates in external potentials

Perturbed version of the complex Toda chain (CTC) has been employed to describe adiabatic interactions within N-soliton train of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS). Perturbations induced by weak quadratic and periodic external potentials are studied by both analytical and numerical means. It is found that the perturbed CTC adequately models the N-soliton train dynamics for both types of potentials. As an application of the developed theory we consider the dynamics of a train of matter - wave solitons confined to a parabolic trap and optical lattice, as well as tilted periodic potentials. In the last case we demonstrate that there exist critical values of the strength of the linear potential for which one or more localized states can be extracted from a soliton train. An analytical expression for these critical strengths for expulsion is also derived.

Soliton generation of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices

Coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations (CNLS) with an external elliptic function potential model a quasi one--dimensional interacting two-component Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in a standing light wave. New families of stationary solutions of the CNLS with a periodic potential are presented and their stability studied by direct numerical simulations. Some of these solutions allow reduction to Manakov system. From a physical point of view these solutions can be interpreted as exact Bloch states at the edge of the Brillouin zone. Some of them are stable while others are found to be unstable against modulations of long wavelength. The solutions which are modulationally unstable are shown to lead to the formation of localized ground states of the coupled BEC system.

N-wave interactions related to simple Lie algebras. Z_2- reductions and soliton solutions

The reductions of the integrable N-wave type equations solvable by the inverse scattering method with the generalized Zakharov-Shabat systems L and related to some simple Lie algebra g are analyzed. The Zakharov- Shabat dressing method is extended to the case when g is an orthogonal algebra. Several types of one soliton solutions of the corresponding N- wave equations and their reductions are studied. We show that to each soliton solution one can relate a (semi-)simple subalgebra of g. We illustrate our results by 4-wave equations related to so(5) which find applications in Stockes-anti-Stockes wave generation.

Reductions of N-wave interactions related to low-rank simple Lie algebras. I: Z_2- reductions

The analysis and the classification of all reductions for the nonlinear evolution equations solvable by the inverse scattering method is an interesting and still open problem. We show how the second order reductions of the N-wave interactions related to low-rank simple Lie algebras g can be embedded also in the Weyl group of g. This allows us to display along with the well known ones a number of new types of integrable N-wave systems. Some of the reduced systems find applications to nonlinear optics.

Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy and related completely integrable systems: I. Algebro-geometrical approach

We consider complementary dynamical systems related to stationary Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy of equations. A general approach for finding elliptic solutions is given. The solutions are expressed in terms of Novikov polynomials in general quais-periodic case. For periodic case these polynomials coincide with Hermite and Lamé polynomials. As byproduct we derive $2\times 2$ matrix Lax representation for Rosochatius-Wojciechiwski, Rosochatius, second flow of stationary nonlinear vectro Schrödinger equations and complex Neumann system.

Quasi-Periodic and Periodic Solutions for Systems of Coupled Nonlinear SCHRÖdinger Equations

We consider travelling periodic and quasiperiodic wave solutions of a set of coupled nonlinear Schrödimger equations. In fibre optics these equations can be used to model single mode fibers with strong birefringence and two-mode optical fibres. Recently these equations appear as modes, which describe pulse-pulse interaction in wavelength-division-multiplexed channels of optical fiber transmission systems. Two phase quasi-periodic solutions for integrable Manakov system are given in tems of two-dimensional Kleinian functions. The reduction of quasi-periodic solutions to elliptic functions is dicussed. New solutions in terms of generalized Hermite polynomilas, which are associated with two-gap Treibich-Verdier potentials are found.
