Abstract

New types of stable discrete solitons are discovered. They represent the first example of asymmetric dark solitons and shock waves with a nonzero background. Both types of solutions exhibit a strong intrinsic phase dynamics. Their domains of existence and criteria of stability are identified. Numerical experiments support the analytical findings.
