✦ Synopsis

In this paper we consider the nonlinear Schr6dinger equation with an oscillatory, mean-zero dispersion, which has recently been proposed as an alternative method of dispersion compensation for pulse transmission in optical fibers. Under the assumption that the time scale on which the dispersion changes is short in comparison with the dispersion and nonlinearity time scales, we are able to factor out the leading order contribution of the dispersion which leads to an effective equation for the pulse dynamics. This effective equation is a nonlinear diffusion equation, which is shown by an amplitude-phase decomposition to reduce to the well-known porous medium equation for the amplitude dynamics and a linear, nonconstant coefficient diffusion equation for the phase which is driven by the amplitude.

We consider, numerically and analytically, a wave pulse passing a point where the dispersion coefficient changes its sign from focusing to defocusing. Simulations demonstrate that, in the focusing region, the pulse keeps a soliton-like shape until it is close to the zero-dispersion point, but then,

This paper is a sequel to previous ones [38,39,41]. We continue the study of the blowup problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with critical power nonlinearity (NSC). We introduce a new idea to prove the existence of a blowup solution in H 1 (R N ) without any weight condition and reduce the
