D. Levi et al., SIMILARITY REDUCTION AND PERTURBATION SOLUTION OF THE STIMULATED-RAMAN-SCATTERING EQUATIONS IN THE PRESENCE OF DISSIPATION, Physical review. A, 49(4), 1994, pp. 2844-2852
Similarity and other group-invariant solutions of stimulated Raman sca
ttering (SRS) in the presence of dissipation are studied. The group-th
eoretical analysis reduces the SRS equations to ordinary differential
equations which in the most interesting cases, i.e., in the case of th
e self-similar and soliton solutions, are studied perturbatively to de
rive the effect of dissipation.
