Impact of high-order interactions on the fundamental dynamics of four-wave mixing
We extend the truncated three-wave theory used to describe degenerate four-wave mixing in optical fibers to take into account the impact of higher-order harmonic sidebands. Using second-order perturbation theory combined with adiabatic elimination, our extended theory preserves the initial framework of the three-wave description. This allows the subsequent discussion of the origin of the nonpreservation of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou recurrence that is observed in optical fibers. Our analytical results are supported by numerical simulations and experimental observations.
