They can either be stable or unstable. We show that the branches of stable solitons can be interrelated, i.e.Keywords: Hamiltonians; Laser mode locking; Perturbation techniques; Nonlinear polarization rotation; Solitons Ginzburg-Landau equation; Passively mode-locked lasers; Soliton; Stability criterionInterrelation between various branches of stable solitons in dissipative systems - conjecture for stability criterion200110.1016/S0030-4018(01)01594-22015-12-10
