The Proper Orthogonal Decomposition for Dimensionality Reduction in Mode-Locked Lasers and Optical Systems

Figure 12

Top: surface and pseudocolor plots of the single-pulse, breather, chaotic, and double-pulse solutions computed for the finite-dimensional model at , 2.5, 3.495, and 3.5, respectively. Bottom: the same plots for the even WGAML model taken at 2.3, 2.5, 3.1, and 3.2, respectively. The reduced model accurately reproduces the four behaviors observed.
