Abstract

Dark soliton-like solutions are analyzed in the context of a certain nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with nonlocal dispersive term of Kac-Baker type. Main purpose is to investigate such solutions with negative nonlinear term and the presence of general integral dispersive terms. First the model is presented and the properties of the fundamental solution, the continuous wave, is studied. Dark solitary waves are perturbations of this plane wave. The study of dark type of solutions is divided in two different cases black and dark solitary waves. The range of existence of such solutions is studied analytically, and also their physical quantities like norm, momentum and energy. Usual behavior of nonlinear systems under nonlocal dispersive terms is found.
