Dissipative switching waves and solitons in the systems with spontaneously broken symmetry

Abstract:
The paper addresses the bistability caused by spontaneous symmetry breaking bifurcation in a one-dimensional periodically corrugated nonlinear waveguide pumped by coherent light at normal incidence. The formation and the stability of the switching waves connecting the states of different symmetries are studied numerically. It is shown that the switching waves can form stable resting and moving bound states (dissipative solitons). The protocols of the creation of the discussed nonlinear localized waves are suggested and verified by numerical simulations.
