Dynamical systems in the theory of solitons in the presence of nonlocal interactions

The behavior of solitons in models which take into account complex dispersion or nonlocal interaction of nonlinear waves is examined. A method is proposed to reduce this problem to one involving special trajectories (homoclinic and heteroclinic) of the dynamic system. This method involves replacing the nonlinear integrodifferential equation with the differential equations which link the original nonlinear field with the auxiliary linear fields. The interaction of fields in such a model is a local interaction. The number of introduced linear fields is determined by the Laplace transform of the integral operator kernel of the basic integrodifferential equation. The problem involving topological solitons for the nonlocal generalization of the Klein-Gordon equation is considered. Nonlocal interactions are found to lead to a number of singularities (unrestricted increase in the slope of the topological soliton front, break in the solutions, and other singularities).
