Stochastic Soliton Solutions of the High-Order Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation in the Optical Fiber with Stochastic Dispersion and Nonlinearity

Abstract

In this paper, the high-order nonlinear Schrödinger (HNLS) equation driven by the Gaussian white noise, which describes the wave propagation in the optical fiber with stochastic dispersion and nonlinearity, is studied. With the white noise functional approach and symbolic computation, stochastic one- and two-soliton solutions for the stochastic HNLS equation are obtained. For the stochastic one soliton, the energy and shape keep unchanged along the soliton propagation, but the velocity and phase shift change randomly because of the effects of Gaussian white noise. Ranges of the changes increase with the increase in the intensity of Gaussian white noise, and the direction of velocity is inverted along the soliton propagation. For the stochastic two solitons, the effects of Gaussian white noise on the interactions in the bound and unbound states are discussed: In the bound state, periodic oscillation of the two solitons is broken because of the existence of the Gaussian white noise, and the oscillation of stochastic two solitons forms randomly. In the unbound state, interaction of the stochastic two solitons happens twice because of the Gaussian white noise. With the increase in the intensity of Gaussian white noise, the region of the interaction enlarges.
