Optical rogue waves are rare, extreme fluctuations in the value of an optical field. The
term'optical rogue wave'was first used in the context of an analogy between pulse …

Rogue waves is the name given by oceanographers to isolated large amplitude waves, that
occur more frequently than expected for normal, Gaussian distributed, statistical events …

The prediction of extreme events, from avalanches and droughts to tsunamis and epidemics,
depends on the formulation and analysis of relevant, complex dynamical systems. Such …

The pioneering paper'Optical rogue waves' by Solli et al (2007 Nature 450 1054) started the
new subfield in optics. This work launched a great deal of activity on this novel subject. As a …

We propose a detailed stability analysis of the Lugiato-Lefever model for Kerr optical
frequency combs in whispering-gallery-mode resonators when they are pumped in either …

Rare events of extremely high optical intensity are experimentally recorded at the output of a
mode-locked fiber laser that operates in a strongly dissipative regime of chaotic multiple …

Optical fibres are favourable tabletop laboratories to investigate both coherent and
incoherent nonlinear waves. In particular, exact solutions of the one-dimensional nonlinear …

We introduce a mechanism for generating higher-order rogue waves (HRWs) of the
nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation: the progressive fusion and fission of n degenerate …

The science of rogue waves in optics is now over five years old, and it has emerged as an
area of broad interest to researchers across the physical sciences [1]. This area of study was …

In this paper, using the Darboux transformation, we demonstrate the generation of first-order
breather and higher-order rogue waves from a generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation …
