Description
Summary:The nonlinear dynamics of a generalized higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger (HNLS) equation with a periodic external perturbation is investigated numerically. Via the phase plane analysis, we find that both the homoclinic orbits and heteroclinic orbits can exist for the unperturbed HNLS equation under certain conditions, which respectively corresponds to the bell-shaped and kink-shaped soliton solutions. Moreover, under the effect of the periodic external perturbation, the quasi-periodic bifurcations arise and can evolve into the chaos. The dynamical responses of the perturbed system varying with the perturbation strength and two types of chaotic attractors are discussed to show the existence of the chaotic motions. Via the feedback control methods, such chaotic motions are found to be controlled effectively and finally evolve into the stable quasi-periodic orbits. All the results are helpful to understand the dynamical properties of the nonlinear system.
