Exact solitons and manifold mixing dynamics in the spin-orbit–coupled spinor condensates
We derive exact static as well as moving solitonic solutions to the one-dimensional spin-orbit-coupled F=1 Bose-Einstein condensates. The static polar soliton is shown to be the ground state by the imaginary-time evolution method. It shows a helical modulation of the order parameter due to the spin-orbit coupling. In particular, the …
