Solitary waves and Bohmian mechanics.
We study a Schrödinger-like equation with a nonlinear term. This nonlinearity has the effect of allowing the existence of highly concentrated stable solitary waves of a topological nature. Such solitary waves tend to move according to Bohmian mechanics. Therefore our model can be considered a nonsingular realization of de Broglie pilot wave theory.
