In this paper, we employ the auxiliary equation method (AEM) to show the leverage of the nearest neighbors hopping and the boson–boson interaction in a zig zag optical lattice on the stressed optical solitons (os) and the Modulation Instability (MI) gain of cold bosonic atoms. The pedestal of the work is set on the continuum approximation of a cold bosonic atoms in a zig zag optical lattice which has demonstrated in detailed in refs.

Quantum breathers associated with modulational instability in 1D ultracold boson in optical lattices involving nextnearest neighbor interactions. Optik 164(2018):575–589]. The results collected have enclosed bright, dark optical solitons and the combined bright-dark and bright-bright optical solitons. Compared the acquired results with Tala-Tebue et al. [Optical solutions of cold bosonic atoms in a zig–zag optical lattice. Opt Quant Electron 53(2021):44], further the os including U-shaped and W-shaped profile have been drop in and the powerful of the nearest neighbors hopping and the boson–boson interaction has been exposed across the spatiotemporal and plot evolution of the bright and dark os. Therewith, the MI bands have been stressed and it is observed some new attitude of the MI gain spectra under the induction of the model parameters. The collected results are new in literature in our knowledge and will improve the previous results acquired in refs. [Tala-Tebue E, Rezazadeh H, Djoufack ZI, et al.
