This study presents a general form for symmetric modes in nonlinear systems. It introduces angular Bloch momentum to describe vortex solutions behaving as Bloch modes, generalizing angular momentum for systems lacking O2 symmetry.

Area of Science:

  • Nonlinear dynamics
  • Mathematical physics
  • Symmetry in physics

Background:

  • Nonlinear discrete-symmetry systems exhibit complex behaviors.
  • Understanding field modulus-dependent nonlinearity is crucial.
  • Vortex solutions require generalized descriptions beyond standard symmetry.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the most general form for symmetric modes in nonlinear discrete-symmetry systems.
  • To characterize vortex solutions using a novel concept.
  • To generalize the definition of angular momentum for systems with reduced symmetry.

Main Methods:

  • Derivation of the general form for symmetric modes.
  • Analysis of vortex solutions behavior.
  • Introduction and application of angular Bloch momentum.

Main Results:

  • Vortex solutions are shown to behave as Bloch modes.
  • Angular Bloch momentum is introduced, linked to periodic variables and system symmetry order.
  • Conservation of angular Bloch momentum during propagation is demonstrated.

Conclusions:

  • The concept of angular Bloch momentum effectively generalizes angular momentum for systems with discrete point-symmetry.
  • This framework provides a new perspective on vortex dynamics in nonlinear systems.
  • The findings are significant for understanding wave propagation in systems with reduced symmetry.
