Dynamics of solitons in nearly integrable systems

Kivshar, Yuri S., Malomed, Boris A.·1989·Reviews of Modern Physics

Abstract

A detailed survey of the technique of perturbation theory for nearly integrable systems, based upon the inverse scattering transform, and a minute account of results obtained by means of that technique and alternative methods are given. Attention is focused on four classical nonlinear equations: the Korteweg-de Vries, nonlinear Schr\"odinger, sine-Gordon, and Landau-Lifshitz equations perturbed by various Hamiltonian and/or dissipative terms; a comprehensive list of physical applications of these perturbed equations is compiled. Systems of weakly coupled equations, which become exactly integrable when decoupled, are also considered in detail. Adiabatic and radiative effects in dynamics of one and several solitons (both simple and compound) are analyzed. Generalizations of the perturbation theory to quasi-one-dimensional and quantum (semiclassical) solitons, as well as to nonsoliton nonlinear wave packets, are also considered.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
