Abstract
Abstract An asymptotic method is developed to describe a long-term evolution of unstable quasi-plane solitary waves in the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili model for two-dimensional wave media with positive dispersion. An approximate equation is derived for the parameters of soliton transversal modulation and a general solution of this equation is found in an explicit form. It is shown that the development of periodic soliton modulation, in an unstable region, leads to saturation and formation of a two-dimensional stationary wave. This process is accompanied by the radiation of a small-amplitude plane soliton. In a stable region, an amplitude of the modulation is permanently decreasing due to radiation of quasi-harmonic wave packets. The multiperiodic regime of plane soliton self-focusing is also investigated.
