Exact optical solitons to the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation with dual-power law of nonlinearity

Abstract

In this paper, the perturbed nonlinear Schrodinger equation with dual-power law of nonlinearity is studied by adopting four mathematical methods namely the Modified Kudryashov method, the extended Tanh–Coth method, the modified simple equation method and soliton ansatz method. As a results, a set of various types of solitons that contains dark, singular, dark–singular, bright optical solitons and other form of optical soliton solutions are obtained. Firstly, we solve the perturbed nonlinear Schrodinger equation by considering the dual power law parameter using the first three integration methods and secondly we set this parameter equal to one in order, to solve the problem with the fourth method. The used methods in this paper present various applications in fields of nonlinear wave equations. Comparing our new results with well-known in literature are also given. Moreover, the graphical representations of the modulus of some optical soliton solutions and their 2-D profile are also depicted.
