Contraction of variational principle and optical soliton solutions for two models of nonlinear Schrödinger equation with polynomial law nonlinearity

Abstract

Our study analyzes the two models of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) with polynomial law nonlinearity by powerful and comprehensible techniques, such as the variational principle method and the amplitude ansatz method. We will derive the functional integral and the Lagrangian of these equations, which illustrate the system's dynamic. The solutions of these models will be extracted by selecting the trial ansatz functions based on the Jost linear functions, which are continuous at all intervals. We start with the Jost function that has been approximated by a piecewise linear function with a single nontrivial variational parameter in three cases from a region of a rectangular box, then use this trial function to obtain the functional integral and the Lagrangian of the system without any loss. After that, we approximate this trial function by piecewise linear ansatz function in two cases of the two-box potential, then approximate it by quadratic polynomials with two free parameters rather than a piecewise linear ansatz function, and finally, will be approximated by the tanh function. Also, we utilize the amplitude ansatz method to extract the new solitary wave solutions of the proposed equations that contain bright soliton, dark soliton, bright-dark solitary wave solutions, rational dark-bright solutions, and periodic solitary wave solutions. Furthermore, conditions for the stability of the solutions will be submitted. These answers are crucial in applied science and engineering and will be introduced through various graphs such as 2D, 3D, and contour plots.
