Abstract

Soliton propagation is usually described in the ``slowly varying envelope approximation'' (SVEA) regime, which is not applicable for ultrashort pulses. We present theoretical results and numerical simulations for both NLS and parametric (χ(2)) ultrashort solitons in the ``generalised few-cycle envelope approximation'' (GFEA) regime, demonstrating their altered propagation.
