Abstract

We consider the higher-order dispersive nonlinear Schrödinger equation including fourth-order dispersion effects and a quintic nonlinearity. This equation describes the propagation of femtosecond light pulses in a medium that exhibits a parabolic nonlinearity law. By adopting the ansatz solution of Li et al. [Zhonghao Li, Lu Li, Huiping Tian, Guosheng Zhou. New types of solitary wave solutions for the higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Phys Rev Lett 2000;84:4096], we find two different solitary wave solutions under certain parametric conditions. These solutions are in the form of bright and dark soliton solutions.
