Abstract
We present exact explicit Peregrine soliton solutions based on a periodic-wave background caused by the interference in the vector cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation involving the self-steepening effect. It is shown that such periodic Peregrine soliton solutions can be expressed as a linear superposition of two fundamental Peregrine solitons of different continuous-wave backgrounds. Because of the self-steepening effect, some interesting Peregrine soliton dynamics such as ultrastrong amplitude enhancement and rogue wave coexistence are still present when they are built on a periodic background. We numerically confirm the stability of these analytical solutions against non-integrable perturbations, i.e., when the coefficient relation that enables the integrability of the vector model is slightly lifted. We also demonstrate the interaction of two Peregrine solitons on the same periodic background under some specific parameter conditions. We expect that these results may shed more light on our understanding of the realistic rogue wave behaviors occurring in either the fiber-optic telecommunication links or the crossing seas.
1 Introduction
Originally, rogue waves refer to the surface gravity waves occurring in the open ocean whose wave heights are at least twice as high as the significant wave height of the surrounding waves [1]. Under extreme conditions, they soar like a wall of water that can dwarf even the largest of modern ships, and then disappear into the sea as if all this does not happen [2, 3]. As these massive waves usually possess a devastating power and behave unpredictably, they are hard to observe and study. Historically, the first scientific observation that proved the existence of rogue waves was made at the Draupner oil platform in the North Sea on January 1, 1995, hence named “New Year Wave” afterward [4]. Since then, rogue waves became an active multidisciplinary area of research, ranging from hydrodynamics to optics and photonics [5–8].
Despite the extensive studies, there is still a lot of debate over the physical mechanisms behind rogue waves [9, 10]. While the linear theory based on the superposition of random waves or the inhomogeneity has prevailed for some time [11, 12], the nonlinear viewpoint gains increasing popularity, as in a stricter sense only the superposition process of nonlinear waves could bring about extreme waves higher than the sum of the wave heights involved [13]. Actually, the most accepted mechanisms—integrable turbulence [14, 15] and modulation instability (MI) [16, 17] are of nonlinear nature, by which irregular extreme wave events could be created. This is easily understood within the MI framework, where the periodic perturbations on a continuous-wave (cw) background tend to undergo exponential growth initially, and then evolve into a multiplicity of waves, from which rogue waves may arise [18–20]. Therefore, using nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation or other relevant equations to model realistic rogue waves is not only possible but also fascinating, as done in the current rogue wave investigations [21–23].
Mathematically, one can associate rogue waves to the rational solutions of the integrable nonlinear wave equation, which are localized on both time and space [18]. A typical example is the Peregrine soliton, which is a fundamental rational solution of the celebrated NLS equation [24]. This type of soliton solution exhibits a single doubly-localized peak on a finite background, with its peak position and constant phase all undetermined, hence matching well the fleeting and transient wave characteristics of rogue waves as witnessed in real world. For this reason, the Peregrine soliton was thought of as a promising prototype of rogue wave events seen in nature [25]. Its importance and universality have been confirmed by a succession of well-designed experiments, with physical settings spanning from the water-wave tanks [26] to optical fibers [21, 27], and from the deep ocean [28] to plasmas [29]. Moreover, in a multicomponent (or vector) nonlinear system, some variants of Peregrine solitons such as dark Peregrine solitons [30] and anomalous Peregrine solitons [31, 32] have come to light, opening new perspectives on the versatility of Peregrine solitons as an essential prototype in rogue wave science. Here, in a broad sense, we still term the fundamental rogue waves in a multicomponent system Peregrine solitons or Peregrine solitary waves, provided that they inherit the basic wave features of the Peregrine soliton in the original NLS equation [33, 34].
Recently, there has also been an intense research on the so-called periodic Peregrine soliton, by which we mean a Peregrine soliton formed on a periodic background [35–41]. Normally, when a multicomponent nonlinear system is confronted, it may occur to us that an interference would occur when two or more monochromatic waves of different frequencies are simultaneously present in the same region. The appearance of interference fringes, which was ever instrumental in establishing the wave nature of light in the history, is a direct evidence of such interference effects. As interference effects are inherent to the vector nonlinear system consisting of continuous waves, it is therefore reasonable for us to inspect the possibility of the existence of Peregrine solitons on a periodic background caused by interference.
In this paper, we present an in-depth study of the formation of Peregrine solitons on a periodic background, within the framework of the vector cubic-quintic NLS (CQ-NLS) equation, which is a two-component version of the scalar NLS-type Gerdjikov–Ivanov equation [42]. As will be shown, this model has included the necessary ingredients such as group-velocity dispersion (GVD), Kerr nonlinearity, quintic nonlinearity, and self-steepening, which could provide more accurate descriptions for realistic rogue waves met in complex systems, as compared to the simple Manakov model [43, 44] and to the vector Gerdjikov–Ivanov equation [45]. We will show that in this vector nonlinear system, a periodic background could form as a result of an interference between two continuous waves. Further, we present explicitly the general Peregrine soliton solutions built on such a periodic background, which were not reported previously, to the best of our knowledge. The robustness of these analytical solutions against non-integrable perturbations has been numerically confirmed, by lifting the integrality condition of the above vector CQ-NLS model. With these exact solutions, the dynamics of the coexisting and anomalous Peregrine solitons, as well as their interactions, of course occurring on a periodic background, are exhibited. The underlying mechanisms responsible for the generation of such periodic Peregrine solitons are also discussed.
2 Theoretical Framework
In the context of fiber optics, we write the vector CQ-NLS equation aswhere are the normalized complex envelopes of two optical components, and z and t are the distance and retarded time, respectively. Subscripts z and t stand for partial derivatives. While the constant coefficient 1/2 points to the GVD effect and the coefficient σ to the self-phase modulation, γ accounts for the pulse self-steepening effect [46], and relates to the quintic nonlinearity, which was often found in highly nonlinear materials such as chalcogenide fibers [47]. Here, in terms of the anomalous and normal dispersion cases, the parameter σ can be normalized to 1 and , respectively, which have an otherwise interpretation of self-focusing and self-defocusing in the context of beam optics, when the independent variable t is interpreted as the transversal spatial coordinate [48]. Besides, the combination of cubic and quintic nonlinearity is a conventional consideration in the design of mode-locked fiber lasers [49] or in stabilizing the soliton propagation in nonlinear media [50]. With the above ingredients included, this vector model represents an important generalization of the Manakov system [43, 44], although the former involves a specific relation between the coefficients for quintic nonlinearity and self-steepening terms. Therefore, from a mathematical perspective, it can provide a more accurate description of the propagation of ultrashort optical pulses in highly nonlinear birefringent fibers. The physical relevance of this integrable model can be seen by inspecting the stability of its solutions against non-integrable perturbations, i.e., when the above mentioned specific relation is lifted. We should point out that, to weigh the nonlinearity factors that affect the rogue wave dynamics, we have excluded the higher-order dispersion terms from Eqs 1 and 2, which usually appear when pulses are driven in the few-cycle regime [47] or in the microstructure fiber [51].
Obviously, the above vector system could be reproduced from the compatibility condition, (which can read ), of the following linear eigenvalue problem:where is the eigenfunction (T means a matrix transpose, and r, s, and w are functions of the variables z, t, and the complex spectral parameter λ), andwith being the diagonal matrix, andWe should point out that the Lax pair Eq. 3 takes the same form as used in the scalar CQ-NLS equation [42], except that the Q is now defined by a matrix. The subsequent Darboux dressing operation is straightforward. In simple terms, let first be the seeding solutions and substitute them into the Lax pair Eq. 3 to yield the eigenfunction R. Then, in terms of R at given spectral parameter, a dress operator D can be properly constructed, by which R will be dressed into (i.e., = DR). It requires that must satisfy the Lax pair Eq. 3 of the same form, but with a new pair of potentials and in U and V. Lastly, the Darboux transformation formulas that relate the new solutions to the seeding solutions can be found. As concerns this standard procedure, one can refer to Refs. 52–56 for more details. Intended for rogue wave states only, a generalized or nonrecursive Darboux transformation method can be developed, which can give the nth-order rogue wave solutions without any iteration operation [42, 57, 58, 59].
For our present purposes, we are merely concerned with the fundamental rogue wave solutions, which evolve directly from the MI of continuous wave fields. It is easily shown that the initial plane-wave solutions of the vector CQ-NLS equation, defined by the amplitudes , wavenumbers , frequencies , and initial constant phases , all of which are real, can be expressed asunder the dispersion relations:Here and in what follows, we define for the sake of brevity. Also, we will assume below the initial constant phases to be zero, without loss of generality. Then, with the help of the Darboux transformation technique outlined above [42, 58, 59] followed by tedious algebraic manipulations, we obtain the exact fundamental rogue wave solutions on a periodic background, expressed bywhere and are initial plane-wave solutions denoted by Eq. 4, and U(z,t) and are the complex rational polynomials given bywithThe parameters μ and ν in Eqs 6–10 are the real and imaginary parts of the root χ of the algebraic equation:We would like to emphasize that our solutions given by Eq. 5 entail the most general closed form for a pair of Peregrine rogue waves on a periodic background, and their existence relies on the algebraic condition given by Eq. 11. Generally, the real-coefficient quartic Eq. 11 admits two different pairs of complex roots and hence the solutions (Eq. 5) may exhibit two different Peregrine soliton structures for the same set of initial parameters. Moreover, in our solutions, the rational polynomials U and V have been well separated by real and imaginary parts, and their peaks have been translated to locate on the origin so that their peak-to-background ratios read and , respectively, whereOnce the real parameters μ and ν are known from Eq. 11, the intriguing rogue wave dynamics on a periodic background, defined by Eq. 5, could be uncovered. As a matter of fact, the conventional rogue wave dynamics on a cw background, which are known as and , can be understood as well, and one can refer to [59] for more information.
Let us now consider the special case where the quartic Eq. 11 admits two pairs of equal complex roots. In this situation, one can find that, when the plane-wave parameters satisfywhere , , and (the same below, for the sake of brevity), the real and imaginary parts of the root χ would take the following simple formSubstituting Eq. 16 into Eqs 6 and 7 yields (noting now that )which result in the special type of deterministic Peregrine rogue wave solutions denoted by Eq. 5, for any given set of parameters that meets Eqs 14 and 15. As there is only one pair of () value given by Eq. 16, no rogue wave coexistence [23] would occur any more in this special case.
Further, we find that when the parameter conditions given by Eqs 14 and 15 are satisfied, there would exist a pair of two-Peregrine-soliton states that can describe the interaction between two Peregrine rogue waves on the periodic background. After some algebra, we can express this special kind of two-Peregrine-soliton solutions by the same Eq. 5, but let the complex rational polynomials U and V be denoted bywherewith , , , , and and being three arbitrary complex constants (not confused with the system parameter γ). It should be noted that, as , the above polynomials U and V can reduce to Eqs 17 and 18, and then the two-soliton dynamics would disappear.
3 Intriguing Rogue Wave Dynamics on a Periodic Background
For given initial parameters, our analytical solutions Eqs 5–7 may exhibit intriguing rogue wave characteristics, including periodic background hallmark, rogue wave coexistence, anomalous peak amplitude, and applicability for both normal and anomalous dispersions. In the following, we proceed to uncover these interesting features as well as their underlying generation mechanisms.
First of all, it is obvious that the periodic Peregrine soliton solutions of the vector CQ-NLS equation can be generally expressed as a linear superposition of two fundamental Peregrine solitons of different cw backgrounds, provided that the continuous waves involve a nonvanishing frequency difference. In fact, as one might check, when the frequency difference meets , the two field components and would take the form of conventional Peregrine solitons, with a three-fold peak amplitude but without any periodicity on the amplitude of the background, as seen in Figures 1A,B, where the Peregrine solitons defined by Eq. 5 are demonstrated in the anomalous dispersion regime (), with the initial parameters , , , and . However, once , the background fields that support the rogue waves would feature the periodic or amplitude-modulated waves defined byIt follows easily that the characteristic periodicity results from the interference effects of two plane waves (see the second terms in the radicals), and that the background waves will be modulated at a temporal beat frequency equal to δ, with their patterns moving at a transversal velocity equal to . Figures 1C–F show two pairs of Peregrine solitons formed on such periodic backgrounds, using otherwise identical initial parameters as in Figures 1A,B except , which means and . These two pairs of periodic Peregrine solitons are caused by two different values (see caption) that are obtained by substituting the same set of initial parameters into the quartic Eq. 11. This means that on the same periodic background would occur the pair of Peregrine soliton states shown in Figures 1C,D or the other pair shown in Figures 1E,F, or both pairs simultaneously. This is what we meant the rogue wave coexistence first proposed for multi-component long-wave–short-wave resonance [23].
FIGURE 1
Further, we find that the Peregrine solitons formed will possess the following enhancement factors, relative to the average amplitude, , of the periodic background:where are defined by Eqs 12 and 13. According to the above definitions, one can find that the Peregrine solitons shown in Figures 1C–F are actually enhanced in the center position up to 2.91 [Figure 1C], 1.80 [Figure 1D], 0.89 [Figure 1E], and 2.18 [Figure 1F] times as high as the average height of the periodic backgrounds, respectively. These enhancement values are all below 3 and do not seem to be different from what we observed in Manakov systems [43, 44].
However, there is more to our story intended for the vector CQ-NLS system, which involves the self-steepening effect denoted by the parameter γ. It is found that due to the presence of the self-steepening effect, the enhancement factors of periodic Peregrine solitons, defined by Eqs 26 and 27, can also be larger than 3, when an appropriate set of initial parameters is selected [32]. To show this, we demonstrate in Figures 2A,B the periodic Peregrine solitons in the same anomalous dispersion regime, but using another set of initial parameters , , , , and , which, according to Eq. 11, can give rise to and . It is seen that one Peregrine soliton component shown in Figure 2A has an enhancement value of around 3.9, while the other one shown in Figure 2B has a much smaller value, 0.56 or so. For comparison, we also provide in Figures 2C,D the surface plots of the rational polynomials and obtained under the same parameter condition, which correspond to the conventional bright-bright Peregrine soliton solutions of the vector CQ-NLS equation, each involving the peak-to-background ratios and , respectively. It is hence obvious that the ultrastrong peak shown in Figure 2A results from the constructive interference of such bright-bright Peregrine soliton components, while the peak in Figure 2B may almost disappear due to the destructive interference, as implied in Eqs 26 and 27.
FIGURE 2
Of most concern is the case of the combination of negative cubic nonlinearity and positive quintic nonlinearity in our vector model, which admits the existence of periodic Peregrine solitons as well. One may recall that such a competing nonlinearity can often be used to support the formation of stable dissipative solitons in mode-locked fiber lasers [49] or to stabilize the soliton propagation in nonlinear media [50]. A study of MI of the background fields reveals that such a competing nonlinearity, which actually means (i.e., normal dispersion in the context of fiber optics), may favor the generation of Peregrine solitons, with larger transient wave-packet size, as compared to the anomalous dispersion case discussed above [59]. Figure 3 shows the formation of periodic Peregrine solitons in the normal dispersion regime, which is a linear superposition of the given U and V distributions shown in Figures 3A,B. For simplicity, we used a special set of initial parameters that meets Eqs 14 and 15 and thus used Eqs 17 and 18 for U and V in Eq. 5. Clearly, using this set of parameters, we can obtain and , as indicated in Figures 3A,B. Hence, both periodic Peregrine soliton components shown in Figures 3C,E would involve an enhancement value 1.63 in the center position, despite that they have a different amplitude distribution, as indicated by the contour plots in Figures 3D,F. As compared with Figure 1, the periodic Peregrine solitons shown in Figure 3 exhibit a larger spatiotemporal dimension and thus a larger transient wave-packet size.
FIGURE 3
Now a natural question arises as to whether these periodic-background Peregrine soliton solutions are robust against numerical noises or even against strong “non-integrable” perturbations by which we mean that the specific relation between the coefficients for quintic nonlinearity and self-steepening terms can be lifted. To answer this question, we perform extensive numerical simulations with respect to our analytical solutions (Eq. 5), using an efficient code based on the exponential time differencing Crank–Nicolson (ETDCN) scheme with Padé approximation [60, 61]. Here we present merely two sets of numerical results, for a typical set of system parameters , , , , , and , which would lead to and . First, for the purpose of comparison, we integrated the original integrable CQ-NLS Eqs 1 and 2 numerically, with the analytical solutions at as initial conditions. Simulation results are shown in Figures 4A,B. It is clear that our numerical code gave precisely the whole solution profiles as predicted by the analytical solutions (Eq. 5) till , despite the intrinsic numerical noises. Second, we violate the integrability of the governed model by solely changing the coefficient of the self-steepening term to in the model, and simulate again the Peregrine soliton solutions under otherwise identical parameter conditions, with results given in Figures 4C,D. It is clearly seen that the whole Peregrine soliton profiles on a periodic background can still be well maintained till (see the region before the white dashed line), almost the same as shown in Figures 4A,B, implying that our analytical solutions (Eq. 5) are still robust against such strong non-integrable perturbations. After , due to the onset of MI, there would appear complex wave structures, which tend to interfere with the trailing edge of Peregrine soliton profiles. The above simulations also confirm, to an extent, the physical relevance of our analytical solutions obtained with the coupled CQ-NLS Eqs 1 and 2, although the model involves a special parameter relation between the quintic nonlinearity and the self-steepening terms in order to enable integrability.
FIGURE 4
Finally, we would like to point out that our solution form defined by Eq. 5 is universal and can be applied to the higher-order rogue wave hierarchy built on a periodic background, only when and are the corresponding conventional higher-order solutions of the underlying vector model. Here for our current purpose, we provide the periodic two-Peregrine-soliton solutions defined by Eqs 5, 19, and 20, which describe the interaction between two Peregrine soliton constituents, for any set of initial parameters that meets Eqs 14 and 15. Typical results are demonstrated in Figure 5, where we used the same system parameters as in Figure 3, and three extra parameters , , and . It is shown that on a periodic background, there appear two well-separated Peregrine soliton states on each field component; one may behave like a spike, while the other is weaker in peak amplitude. Of course, there would occur other complex patterns on the periodic background, when the free parameters (s=1,2,3) are changed. However, it is due to the inclusion of these extra parameters that our general solutions presented above can be used to model the multivariant rogue wave events met in practical conditions.

4 Conclusion
In conclusion, we presented exact Peregrine soliton solutions built on a periodic background caused by the interference in the vector CQ-NLS equation involving self-steepening. It is revealed that such periodic Peregrine soliton solutions are indeed a linear superposition of two fundamental Peregrine solitons of different cw backgrounds, provided that the continuous waves possess a nonvanishing frequency difference. With these exact solutions, we demonstrated the coexistence of Peregrine solitons on the same periodic background, under certain parameter conditions. Further, the ultrastrong amplitude enhancement was proved to occur on the periodic background as well, due to the presence of the self-steepening effect. We numerically confirm the stability of these analytical solutions against significant non-integrable perturbations. We also showed the interaction of two Peregrine solitons on the periodic background, which are still a linear superposition of those on the cw background. Basically, such simple superposition rule can be applied to the higher-order rogue wave hierarchy on a periodic background. As one might expect, these findings may shed more light on our understanding of the realistic rogue wave behaviors occurring in either the fiber-optic telecommunication links [7] or the crossing seas [9].
