TL;DR

This paper constructs and analyzes rogue wave solutions of the integrable Davey-Stewartson equations, revealing their recurrence, blow-up behavior, and relevance to initial perturbations in multidimensional wave models.

Contribution

It introduces N-breather rogue wave solutions for DS equations, explores their limiting cases, and examines conditions for blow-up and stability in multidimensional settings.

Findings

Constructed N-breather rogue wave solutions for DS equations.

Identified parameter constraints leading to finite-time blow-up.

Showed that large amplitude rogue waves can occur without blow-up in certain cases.

Abstract

The integrable focusing Davey-Stewarson (DS) equations, multidimensional generalizations of the focusing cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation, provide ideal mathematical models for describing analytically the dynamics of 2+1 dimensional anomalous (rogue) waves (AWs). In this paper i) we construct the $N$-breather AW solution of Akhmediev type of the DS1 and DS2 equations, describing the nonlinear interaction of $N$ unstable modes over the constant background solution. ii) For the simplest multidimensional solution of DS2 we construct its limiting subcases, and we identify the constraint on its arbitrary parameters giving rise to blow up at finite time. iii) We use matched asymptotic expansions to describe the relevance of the constructed AW solutions in the doubly periodic Cauchy problem for small initial perturbations of the background, in the case of one and two unstable modes. We also show, in the case of two unstable modes, that no blow up takes place generically, although the AW amplitude can be arbitrarily large. All the results are expressed in terms of elementary functions.
