Optical Solitons in Fibers

Optical Solitons in Fibers by Akira Hasegawa.

Latest developments associated with two currently active and very important theoretical and practical topics in nonlinear optics, namely solitons and fibers, are considered in this volume. Solitons as analytical solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations were established in 1967, and only...
