- Description
- Breather solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, also referred to as solitons on finite and continuous background, have been known since the late 70s. Some of these pulsating localized structures describe the nonlinear stage of the modulation instability in a variety of nonlinear dispersive media and are prized to model and control rogue wave events in such wave systems. The talk will elaborate on the latest groundbreaking breather observations in optics, hydrodynamics, plasma, and Bose-Einstein condensates. A particular focus will be devoted to applications, for instance in marine engineering as well as ocean rogue wave modeling and prediction. Moreover, perspectives on implementations and limitations of breather modeling for extreme sea waves will also be discussed.
