Soliton waves with optical solutions to the three-component coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Abstract

This study uses the modified Sardar sub-equation method to find novel soliton solutions to the nonlinear three-component coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE), which is used for pulse propagation in nonlinear optical fibers. Multi-component NLSE equations are widely used because they can represent a wide range of complex observable systems and more dynamic patterns of localized wave solutions. The optical solutions proposed in this study are novel and can be described using hyperbolic, trigonometric, and exponential functions. These solutions are categorized as bright, dark, singular, combo bright-singular, and periodic solutions. Some solutions’ dynamic behaviors are demonstrated by selecting appropriate physical parameter values. The results and computational analysis indicate that the techniques provided are simple, effective, and adaptable. They can be applied to a variety of nonlinear evolution equations, whether stable or unstable, and can be used in fields such as mathematics, mathematical physics, and applied sciences.
