Optical solitons and modulation instability analysis of an integrable model of (2+1)-Dimensional Heisenberg ferromagnetic spin chain equation

Abstract

This paper addresses the nonlinear Schrbdinger type equation (NLSE) in (2+1)-dimensions which describes the nonlinear spin dynamics of Heisenberg ferromagnetic spin chains (HFSC) with anisotropic and bilinear interactions in the semiclassical limit. Two integration schemes are employed to study the equation. These are the complex envelope function ansatz and the generalized tanh methods. Dark, dark-bright or combined optical and singular soliton solutions of the equation are derived. Furthermore, the modulational instability (MI) is studied based on the standard linear-stability analysis and the MI gain is got. Numerical simulation of the obtained results are analyzed with interesting figures showing the physical meaning of the solutions. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
