  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We analyse numerically, the propagation of a light condensate through a bulk PTS-like nonlinear optical material in the presence of boundary conditions and localised inhomogeneities. The propagation equation for the above waveguide in the paraxial regime is a generalised nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE), including cubic-quintic terms and the effect of boundaries or localised inhomogeneities.
