Abstract

In this work we develop a theoretical model to describe the propagation of an optical pulse in a 4-level atomic system. We investigate the existence of dissipative soliton solutions and analyze the stability of these solitary waves, comparing the analytical results with computational simulations based on the effective (1+1)-dimensional model derived from the Maxwell-Bloch equation under the slowly-varying envelope approximation.
