SUMMARY:On the fractional NLSE and its applications to nonlinear optics - 
 Alejandro Aceves (Southern Methodist University)

DESCRIPTION:Nonlinear optics and photonics remains an emerging field both 
 in modeling foundational physical processes and applcations.&nbsp\; At the
  heart of advancing new knowledge is the technological ability to manage d
 ispersion and diffraction. As it relates to diffraction\, I will discuss a
  somewhat novel concept in photonics\, but well known in other fields: Fra
 ctional diffraction and the fractional Laplacian. Combined with nonlinear 
 effects\, the discrete and continuous fractional Nonlinear Schroedinger eq
 uation (fNLSE) emerges as a model of interest in optics and photonics. Rec
 ent results and theoretical challenges will be presented in this talk.
