Strong and weak interactions of rational vector rogue waves and solitons to any n -component nonlinear Schrödinger system with higher-order effects

The higher-order effects play an important role in the wave propagations of ultrashort (e.g. subpicosecond or femtosecond) light pulses in optical fibres. In this paper, we investigate any n -component fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger ( n -FONLS) system with non-zero backgrounds containing the n -Hirota equation and the n -Lakshmanan–Porsezian–Daniel equation. Based on the loop group theory, we find the multi-parameter family of novel rational vector rogue waves (RVRWs) of the n -FONLS equation starting from the plane-wave solutions. Moreover, we exhibit the weak and strong interactions of some representative RVRW structures. In particular, we also find that the W-shaped rational vector dark and bright solitons of the n -FONLS equation as the second- and fourth-order dispersion coefficients satisfy some relation. Furthermore, we find the higher-order RVRWs of the n -FONLS equation. These obtained rational solutions will be useful in the study of RVRW phenomena of multi-component nonlinear wave models in nonlinear optics, deep ocean and Bose–Einstein condensates.

Exact solutions and aysmptotic state analysis of a modified Toda lattice system with a perturbation parameter

Under consideration is a modified Toda lattice system with a perturbation parameter, which may describe the particle motion in a lattice. With the aid of symbolic computation Maple, the discrete generalized [Formula: see text]-fold Darboux transformation (DT) of this system is constructed for the first time. Different types of exact solutions are derived by applying the resulting DT through choosing different [Formula: see text]. Specifically, standard soliton solutions, rational solutions and their mixed solutions are given via the [Formula: see text]-fold DT, [Formula: see text]-fold DT and [Formula: see text]-fold DT, respectively. Limit states of various exact solutions are analyzed via the asymptotic analysis technique. Compared with the known results, we find that the asymptotic states of mixed solutions of standard soliton and rational solutions are consistent with the asymptotic analysis results of solitons and rational solutions alone. Soliton interaction and propagation phenomena are shown graphically. Numerical simulations are used to explore relevant soliton dynamical behaviors. These results and properties might be helpful for understanding lattice dynamics.

Multiple breathers and high-order rational solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

This paper is devoted to obtaining the multi-soliton solutions, high-order breather solutions and high-order rational solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (BKP) equation by applying the Hirota bilinear method and the long-wave limit approach. Moreover, the interaction solutions are constructed by choosing appropriate value of parameters, which consist of four waves for lumps, breathers, rouges and solitons. Some dynamical characteristics for the obtained exact solutions are illustrated using figures.

Decision Games as an Element of Managerial Improvement in Crisis Management

In order to ensure effective counteraction to contemporary security threats, maximum limitation of human losses, property and natural environment losses, a multi-level and multi-element system of crisis management has been organized in Poland, covering all levels of government and local government administration as well as specialist services, guards, separate inspections and non-governmental organisations. The effectiveness of this system, most of whose participants are not full-time employees, depends, among other things, on proper training and preparation of managerial staff. One of the most important contemporary methods of training and improvement of managerial staff is the method of “decision games”, which should be aimed at training the managers of crisis management systems in solving complex problems and shaping intellectual features that affect the efficiency of action and creative thinking of decision-makers, especially during the search for rational solutions to problems, in conditions of difficult to determine risk. This method has many advantages, including the possibility of implementing theoretical knowledge about crisis management into practical solutions, practising in conditions which decision-makers may encounter in reality, the coverage of practically the whole area of decision-making in crisis management, or the implementation of the acquired knowledge and skills into practical actions but on “paper” in conditions free from the risk of human losses or property or natural environment losses due to wrong decisions.

A Relativistic Toda Lattice Hierarchy, Discrete Generalized (m,2N−m)-Fold Darboux Transformation and Diverse Exact Solutions

This paper investigates a relativistic Toda lattice system with an arbitrary parameter that is a very remarkable generalization of the usual Toda lattice system, which may describe the motions of particles in lattices. Firstly, we study some integrable properties for this system such as Hamiltonian structures, Liouville integrability and conservation laws. Secondly, we construct a discrete generalized (m,2N−m)-fold Darboux transformation based on its known Lax pair. Thirdly, we obtain some exact solutions including soliton, rational and semi-rational solutions with arbitrary controllable parameters and hybrid solutions by using the resulting Darboux transformation. Finally, in order to understand the properties of such solutions, we investigate the limit states of the diverse exact solutions by using graphic and asymptotic analysis. In particular, we discuss the asymptotic states of rational solutions and exponential-and-rational hybrid solutions graphically for the first time, which might be useful for understanding the motions of particles in lattices. Numerical simulations are used to discuss the dynamics of some soliton solutions. The results and properties provided in this paper may enrich the understanding of nonlinear lattice dynamics.
