High-order Rogue Waves in Vector Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations (1311.2720v1)

Abstract: We study on dynamics of high-order rogue wave in two-component coupled nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations. We find four fundamental rogue waves can emerge for second-order vector RW in the coupled system, in contrast to the high-order ones in single component systems. The distribution shape can be quadrilateral, triangle, and line structures through varying the proper initial excitations given by the exact analytical solutions. Moreover, six fundamental rogue wave can emerge on the distribution for second-order vector rogue wave, which is similar to the scalar third-order ones. The distribution patten for vector ones are much abundant than the ones for scalar rogue waves. The results could be of interest in such diverse fields as Bose-Einstein condensates, nonlinear fibers, and superfluids.
