4 Nonlocal nonlinear interaction Spatial nonlocality: response in a point depends on the intensity in its vicinity Nonlocality results from a transport process: atom diffusion, heat transfer, drift of charges. Generic feature in many nonlinear systems: plasma, atom gasses, liquid crystals, Bose-Einstein condensates Stationary solutions in quadratic nonlinear (χ (2) ) media are equivalent to stationary solutions in nonlocal Kerr-media New Trends in Nonlinear Physics, ICTP, September 17, 2005 Back Next p. 3/2

34 Conclusions Nonlocal effects have a strong influence on the nonlinear evolution The modulational instability of plane waves is suppressed for positive definite R(k) Higher order unstable bands appear for sign indefinite R(k) and unstable bands may appear in de-focusing media. Nonlocality influences soliton interactions and may introduce 2(n)-soliton bound states. Nonlocality prevents blow-up, stabilize 2 and 3-D solitons; quasi collapse is possible.
