Title Optical Solitons in Ρ&Tau Periodic Potentials

Abstract
We investigate the effect of nonlinearity on beam dynamics in parity-time (ΡΤ) symmetric potentials. We show that a novel class of one- and two-dimensional nonlinear self-trapped modes can exist in optical ΡΤ synthetic lattices. These solitons are shown to be stable over a wide range of potential parameters. The transverse power flow within these complex solitons is also examined.
