Spontaneous motion of cavity solitons induced by a delayed feedback

M Tlidi, AG Vladimirov, D Pieroux, D Turaev - Physical review letters, 2009 - APS
We study the properties of 2D cavity solitons in a coherently driven optical resonator
subjected to a delayed feedback. The delay is found to induce a spontaneous motion of a …

T Frohoff-Hülsmann, MP Holl, E Knobloch, SV Gurevich… - Physical Review E, 2023 - APS
We demonstrate that several nonvariational continuum models commonly used to describe
active matter as well as other active systems exhibit nongeneric behavior: each model …

Resting and traveling localized states in an active phase-field-crystal model

L Ophaus, SV Gurevich, U Thiele - Physical Review E, 2018 - APS

simple microscopic description of the thermodynamic transition between fluid and crystalline …

Two-dimensional localized states in an active phase-field-crystal model

L Ophaus, E Knobloch, SV Gurevich, U Thiele - Physical Review E, 2021 - APS
The active phase-field-crystal (active PFC) model provides a simple microscopic mean field
description of crystallization in active systems. It combines the PFC model (or conserved …

Fragmentation of stability domains of dark solitons, dark breathers, and drifting solitons at high pump intensities in normal-dispersion Kerr microresonators

VE Lobanov, OV Borovkova, AK Vorobyev, VI Pavlov… - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS

Spontaneous motion of cavity solitons in vertical-cavity lasers subject to optical injection and to delayed feedback

K Panajotov, M Tlidi - The European Physical Journal D, 2010 - Springer
We consider a rate equation model describing broad area vertical-cavity surface-emitting
lasers subject to injection and to time-delayed optical feedback. We show that the inclusion …
