The present paper focuses on the self-similar regime and combines machine learning, variance-based sensitivity analysis and theory to provide a robust understanding of the late-time dependency on initial conditions. Particular emphasis is placed on the virtual time origin, which is shown to strongly vary with the initial Reynolds, perturbation steepness and bandwidth numbers. We develop an analytical model based on the phenomenology of Rayleigh–Taylor mixing layers to explain most of this dependency and give accurate predictions of the virtual time origin. It turns out that when the initial perturbation reaches nonlinear saturation earlier, the mixing layer also re-accelerates earlier, while the virtual time origin is larger.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20050,"journal":{"name":"Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena","volume":"483 ","pages":"Article 134947"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145159064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the interaction of fundamental solitons was studied early on, no results are presently available for other types of soliton-breather and breather-breather interactions. Our study reveals that upon interacting with a fundamental breather, a fundamental soliton becomes a fundamental breather. Conversely, the interaction of two fundamental breathers generically yields two fundamental breathers with polarization shifts, but may also result in a fundamental soliton and a fundamental breather. Composite breathers interact trivially both with each other and with a fundamental soliton or breather. Explicit formulas for the scattering coefficients that characterize fundamental and composite breathers are given. This allows us to interpret the interactions in terms of a refactorization problem and derive the associated Yang–Baxter maps describing the effect of interactions on the polarizations.
