Description

We construct explicit novel solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with spatiotemporal modulation of the nonlinearities and potentials. By using a modified similarity transformation we explore some localized nonlinearities and combined time-dependent magnetic–optical potentials in the form of linear-lattice ones and harmonic-lattice ones. Several families of exact localized nonlinear wave solutions in terms of Mathieu and elliptic functions corresponding to these potentials are then studied, such as snakelike solitons and breathing solitons. The stability of the obtained localized nonlinear wave solutions is investigated numerically such that some stable solutions are found.
