The nonlinear Schrödinger equation plays an important role in wave theory, nonlinear optics and Bose‐Einstein condensation. Depending on the background, different analytical solutions have been obtained. One of these solutions is the soliton solution. In the real ocean sea, interactions of different water waves can be observed at the surface. There...

Although extreme or freak waves are repeatedly measured in the oceans, their origin is largely unknown. The interaction of different water waves is seen as one reason for their emergence. One way to consider nonlinear waves in deep water is to look at solutions of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, which plays an important role in the determinat...
