Abstract

We study the generation of mixed localized matter wave solitons in the quasi-one-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii equation with a complex potential (model equation) that describes the dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates trapped in an harmonic potential when the loss/gain of condensate atoms is taken into account. Performing a modified lens-type transformation, the integrability condition is derived and the model equation is converted to a Kundu-like nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Through the linear stability analysis, the phenomenon of the modulational instability is analyzed and the criterion of the modulational instability is established. Based on the generalized perturbation (n,N−n)−fold Darboux transformation, new mixed localized wave solutions are presented and used for analyzing the generation of mixed matter-wave solitons in Bose–Einstein condensates with two-body interatomic interactions. We show that mixed localized waves generated with these exact solutions can change from a strong interaction to a weak interaction by choosing the parameters such as the similarity parameters, the spectrum parameter, or the seed solution parameter. Our results show that the spectrum parameter is useful for generating interesting structures which are beneficial to understanding the complex physical phenomena in Bose–Einstein condensates with atomic gain/loss.
