Chimera states: coexistence of coherence and incoherence in networks of coupled oscillators

Mark J. Panaggio, Daniel M. Abrams · 16 Feb 2015

A chimera state is a spatio-temporal pattern in a network of identical coupled oscillators in which synchronous and asynchronous oscillation coexist. This state of broken symmetry, which usually coexists with a stable spatially symmetric state, has intrigued the nonlinear dynamics community since its discovery in the early 2000s. Recent experiments have led to increasing interest…

Formation of strong fronts in the 2-D quasigeostrophic thermal active scalar

Peter Constantin, Andrew J. Majda, Esteban G. Tabak · 1 Nov 1994

The formation of strong and potentially singular fronts in a two-dimensional quasigeostrophic active scalar is studied through the symbiotic interaction of mathematical theory and numerical experiments. This active scalar represents the temperature evolving on the two dimensional boundary of a rapidly rotating half space with small Rossby and Ekman numbers and constant potential vorticity. The…

Inverse scattering transform for the integrable nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Mark J. Ablowitz, Ziad H. Musslimani · 4 Feb 2016

A nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation was recently introduced and shown to be an integrable infinite dimensional Hamiltonian evolution equation. In this paper a detailed study of the inverse scattering transform of this nonlocal NLS equation is carried out. The direct and inverse scattering problems are analyzed. Key symmetries of the eigenfunctions and scattering data…

Nonlinear modelling of cancer: bridging the gap between cells and tumours

John Lowengrub, Hermann B. Frieboes, Fang Jin et al. · 17 Dec 2009

Despite major scientific, medical and technological advances over the last few decades, a cure for cancer remains elusive. The disease initiation is complex, and including initiation and avascular growth, onset of hypoxia and acidosis due to accumulation of cells beyond normal physiological conditions, inducement of angiogenesis from the surrounding vasculature, tumour vascularization and further growth,…

Nonlinearity template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Nonlinearity format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Nonlinearity template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IOP Publishing format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Nonlinearity use?
Nonlinearity uses Numbered (IOP) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] Smith A, Jones B and Lee C 2023 A representative article title Nonlinearity 12 45–58
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Nonlinearity?
No. DocuGuru generates the iopjournal LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IOP Publishing-ready Nonlinearity document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Nonlinearity template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Nonlinearity format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Nonlinearity?
IOP Publishing journal. It is a physics journal, published by IOP Publishing.
Can I export a submission-ready Nonlinearity PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Nonlinearity template (the iopjournal class) that is ready to submit to IOP Publishing, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Nonlinearity template cost?
You can start writing in the Nonlinearity template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Nonlinearity PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
