Abstract
A family of super-regular (SR) breather solutions in systems with self-steepening effect and in the case of either normal or anomalous dispersion is derived analytically. Derivation is based on the Darboux transformation with a quadratic spectral parameter. In contrast to the SR breather solutions in t-symmetric systems such as the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the new breathers found in the present work evolve asymmetrically even if started from symmetric initial conditions. The initial stage of this process is modulation instability. Numerical simulations confirm the excitation of the SR breathers when started from the approximate initial conditions leading at first to modulation instability. Our results offer the possibility of experimental observations of SR breather dynamics in systems with self-steepening effects, such as optical frequency-doubling crystals or magnetized plasmas.
