Abstract:
This work studies the (2 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation which arises in optical fibre. Grey and black optical solitons of the model are reported using a suitable complex envelope ansatz solution. The integration lead to some certain conditions which must be satisfied for the solitons to exist. On applying the Chupin Liu's theorem to the grey and black optical solitons, we construct new sets of combined optical soliton solutions of the model. Moreover, classification of conservation laws (Cls) of the model is implemented using the multipliers approach. This is achieved by constructing a set of first-order multipliers of a system of nonlinear partial differential equations acquired by transforming the model into real and imaginary components are derived, which are subsequently used to construct the Cls.
