Interaction of solitons and the formation of bound states in the generalized Lugiato-Lefever equation Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
Bound states, also called soliton molecules, can form as a result of the interaction between
individual solitons. This interaction is mediated through the tails of each soliton that overlap with one
another. When such soliton tails have spatial oscillations, locking or pinning between two solitons can
occur at fixed distances related with the wavelength of these oscillations, thus forming a bound state. In
