dc.description.abstractWe describe a principle that can be used to generate self-similarity and fractals in almost any nonlinear system in nature that supports solitons, given that some proper nonadiabatic conditions are met. We illustrate our idea on a particular optics example that also theoretically demonstrates fractals in nonlinear optics.
