Novel superposed kinklike and pulselike solutions for several nonlocal nonlinear equations

We show that a number of nonlocal nonlinear equations, including the Ablowitz–Musslimani and Yang variant of the nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation, the nonlocal modified Korteweg de Vries (mKdV) equation, and the nonlocal Hirota equation, admit novel kinklike and pulselike superposed periodic solutions. Furthermore, we show that the nonlocal mKdV equation also admits the superposed (hyperbolic) kink–antikink solution. In addition, we show that while the nonlocal Ablowitz–Musslimani variant of the NLS admits complex parity-time reversal-invariant kink and pulse solutions, neither the local NLS nor the Yang variant of the nonlocal NLS admits such solutions. Finally, except for the Yang variant of the nonlocal NLS, we show that the other three nonlocal equations admit both the kink and pulse solutions in the same model.
