Nonlinear waves in PT -symmetric systems

TL;DR: The concept of parity-time symmetric systems is rooted in non-Hermitian quantum mechanics where complex potentials obeying this symmetry could exhibit real spectra as discussed by the authors, which has applications in many fields of physics, e.g., in optics, metamaterials, acoustics, Bose-Einstein condensation, electronic circuitry, etc.

Asymptotics, frequency modulation, and low regularity ill-posedness for canonical defocusing equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study defocusing analogues of these equations, namely defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger, defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV), and real KdV, all in one spatial dimension, for which suitable soliton and breather solutions are unavailable.
