Abstract
In this paper, we employ the -expansion method to obtain exact soliton solutions for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with self-focusing and self-defocusing terms. The model describes both a quasi-one-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensate with specific atomic interactions and the propagation of solitons in optical fibers. The solutions include trigonometric, hyperbolic, and rational forms, which solitary waves emerge through specific parameter choices. Graphical analyses illustrate the temporal evolution and diverse soliton structures such as kink, bright, singular, periodic, singular periodic, and W-shaped. A sensitivity analysis reveals bifurcation and chaotic behaviors driven by control parameter variations. The results confirm the method's effectiveness in producing analytically significant solutions for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in mathematical physics and engineering.
