title: A one- and two-dimensional nonlinear pulse interaction
abstract: The peculiar intergrability of the Davey-Stewartson equation allows us to analytically find solutions describing the simultaneous formation and interaction of one-dimensional and two-dimensional localized coherent structures. The predicted phenomenology allows us to address the issue of interaction of solitons of different dimensionality that may serve as a starting point for the understanding of hybrido-dimensional collisions recently observed in nonlinear optical media.
