Canonical and Singular Propagation of Ultrashort Pulses in a Nonlinear Medium

Figure 1

Evolution of a narrow pulse (a) for large ( , (b)) and small ( , (c)) normal dispersion at early stages ( ). In the latter case, the profile steepens, corresponding to the generation of higher frequency components.
