Explore the origins of deterministic rogue waves in complex systems through Gaussian model contradictions. Learn about rogue wave definitions, rescue incidents, optical physicist involvement, and future predictions. Witness chaotic systems generating extreme events and potential control possibilities in lasers. Discover the connection between external crises, chaotic attractors, and the appearance of rogue waves in deterministic systems.

Or are rogue waves a common feature of a complex dynamical systems? • This fact is in contradiction with the Gaussian models used to describe fluctuations of the wave height in the sea*. * M. S. Longuet-Higgins, Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc. A 249 321 (1957). S. Aberg and G. Lindgren, Height distribution of stochastic Lagrange ocean waves, Prob. Eng. Mech. 23, 359 (2008) HOWEVER……
The freighter Riverdance was hit by a giant wave during severe gales in the Irish Sea…..
But….What is the definition of a rogue wave? • Old Recipe: Take the 1/3 biggest amplitude waves; calculate their average value; multiply by 2….whatever amplitude exceeds such value is a rogue wave!!! • Or another Recipe: Take the probability distribution; calculate s ; multiply by 4; whatever….; and if you want a BIG BIG rogue wave…multiply by 8
In the WEB:It isprobablysufficient to saythatanywaveso large thatitisunexpectedbased on current conditions canbecounted as a rogue. There are very few photographs of rogue waves. For centuries, the best evidence for their existence wasanecdotal -- the countless stories told by sailorswhohadsurvived one.
How was that “Opticians” got interested on Rogue Waves? • A “NONLINEAR OPTICS PHYSICIST” WENT TO THE IRISH PUB….and then some papers appear in Nature or other “GO..O..D” Journals D. R. Solli, C. Ropers et al, Optical rogue waves, Nature 450 1054 (2007). B. Kibler, J. Fatome, C. Finot, G. Millot, F. Dias, G. Genty, N. Akhmediev and J. M.

OurAlreadyPublishedConclusions • 1) Extreme Events are rarebutthey can be much more probable than in Gaussianmodelswhenthedynamicalbehavioris “Deterministically” Chaotic • 2) Thereis “chaos” withoutroguewaves and chaos withroguewaves
Somequestions: • How? What is the dynamical process the laser use to generate “extreme events”? • Can we predict deterministic extreme events in optical systems? • Can we control them?
How? a) Intermittency …. P Gaspard and X Wang, PNAS 1988 Nicolis et al., Journal of Statistical physics 1995 b) By abrupt expansion of a chaoticattractor??
Laser with Modulated parameter Rememberingveryold « times »: H.G. Solari J, E. Eschenazi, R. Gilmoreet al., Opt. Commun. 64, 49 (1987) on “Crisis of chaotic attractors” Two ingredients: 1) chaos 2) Enough low dissipation in order to have “generalized” multistability (several stable dynamical solutions for the same parameter values)
Predicting “Roguewaves”? In a deterministic system, the time of “prediction” equals the inverse of the maximum positive Lyapunov exponent But in the laser with injected signal, the prediction time is much larger, and just looking one variable: the intensity
Conclusions • Externalcrisisproduce abrupt expansion of chaoticattractors and are at the origin of someextremeevents • Deterministicextremeeventscouldbepredictedwith « some » anticipation • I still do not know if we are able to control deterministicextremeevents BUT
