Abstract
We present a large set of exact analytic traveling-wavesolutions for the equation iut + uxx = a1u|u|2 + a2u|u|4 that can be of interest in higher-order nonlinear-optical media. This set includes all bright and dark solitary waves as well as periodic ones. Our procedure consists of direct integration; it is then purely algebraic and simple. Solutions are given in simple forms and tabulated.

Fronts, pulses, sources and sinks in generalized complex Ginzberg-Landau equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence and multiplicity of coherent structures in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation was studied. But the authors focused on the competition between fronts and pulses and did not consider the non-uniformly translating front structures.
