Modulation of localized solutions in quadratic-cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inhomogeneous coefficients (1704.03348v1)

Abstract: We study the presence of exact localized solutions in a quadratic-cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with inhomogeneous nonlinearities. Using a specific ansatz, we transform the nonautonomous nonlinear equation into an autonomous one, which engenders composed states corresponding to solutions localized in space, with an oscillating behavior in time. Direct numerical simulations are employed to verify the stability of the modulated solutions against small random perturbations.
