We show that the combination of nonlocality and mutual trapping of soliton constituent components can completely stabilize the vector-necklace-ring soliton clusters which are otherwise only quasistable in local media. Our results may be useful to studies of the novel soliton states in Bose-Einstein with dipolar long-range interactions.Keywords: Arbitrary degree; Long range interactions; Nonlocal; Nonlocal nonlinear media; Nonlocalities; Novel solitons; Ring solitons; Nonlinear optics; Statistical mechanics; Solitons201110.1103/PhysRevA.83.0238252016-02-24
