摘要
The modulation instability of a two-dimensional field with a saturable self-focusing nonlinearity is investigated numerically. We show that approximate recurrence to an initial homogeneous field occurs, but oscillation around the exact recurrence is observed. This pseudorecurrence arises only for a restricted range of spatial modulation frequencies. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
