We present the experimental observation of scalar multipole solitons in highly nonlocal nonlinear media, including dipole, tripole, quadrupole, and necklace-type solitons, organized as arrays of out-of-phase bright spots. These complex solitons are metastable, but with a large parameters range where the instability is weak, permitting their experimental observation.

We investigate the formation of multipole topological solitons at the edges of two and three coupled parallel Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) waveguide arrays. We show that independent variations of waveguide spacing in the unit cells (dimers) in coupled waveguide arrays result in the emergence at their edges of several topological edge states with different internal symmetries. The number of emerging edge states is determined by how many arrays are in topologically nontrivial phase.

The results show that the structure of the optical solitons is determined by modulation depth and topological charge. In the propagation process, the spatial soliton has an observable rotation property.

Owing to the quasi-periodicity of Fibonacci lattices, families of solitons localized in different waveguides have different properties. We found that the existence domain of fundamental solitons localized in the central lattice is larger than that of solitons localized in the adjacent central waveguide.

Multiple double-pole bright-bright and bright-dark soliton solutions for the multicomponent nonlinear Schrödinger (MCNLS) system comprising three types of nonlinearities, namely, focusing, defocusing, and mixed (focusing-defocusing) nonlinearities, arising in different physical settings are constructed. An interesting type of energy-exchanging phenomenon during collision of these double-pole solitons is unraveled. To explore the objectives, we consider the general solutions of a set of generalized MCNLS equations and by taking the long-wavelength limit with proper parameter choices of single-pole bright-bright and bright-dark soliton pairs, the multiple double-pole bright-bright and bright-dark soliton solutions are constructed in terms of determinants.

In this paper, we construct rogue wave solutions on the periodic background for the fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. First, we consider two types of the Jacobi elliptic function solutions, i.e.
