Abstract
Using the self-similarity transformation, we find analytical spatial bright and dark self-similar solitons, i.e., the similaritons, of the generalized (2+1)-dimensional quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with varying diffraction, nonlinearity, and gain. Characteristic examples with physically relevant behavior of these similaritons are studied, and the stability of these solutions is verified with numerical integration.
