Dynamics of nonautonomous rogue waves in Bose-Einstein condensate

Abstract We study rogue waves of Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) analytically in a time-dependent harmonic trap with a complex potential. Properties of the nonautonomous rogue waves are investigated analytically. It is reported that there are possibilities to ‘catch’ rogue waves through manipulating nonlinear interaction properly. The results provide many possibilities to manipulate rogue waves experimentally in a BEC system.
