V-Type Three-Level: Simultons
In the V-type three-level system a probe field couples the ground state |0⟩ to |1⟩ and a coupling field couples the same ground state to |2⟩. Because both fields share the ground state, they interact through the common atomic coherence.
When the combined pulse area satisfies the V-system area theorem,
\[\theta_\mathrm{total} = \sqrt{\theta_\mathrm{probe}^2 + \theta_\mathrm{coupling}^2} = 2\pi n,\]
the two fields lock into shape-preserving simulton solutions that propagate without absorption — the vector generalisation of the SIT soliton.
This notebook surveys the main regimes:
Weak simulton (0.5π + 0.5π): total area below threshold — both fields absorbed.
Simulton propagation (0.5π + 1.5π): sub-threshold redistribution between fields.
√2π simulton (√2π + √2π): threshold simulton — minimum area for lossless propagation.
√8π soliton formation (√8π + √8π): two-soliton simulton.
Soliton collision: two time-displaced solitons merge into a simulton.
Optical surfer: weak CW probe dragged forward by a 2π coupling soliton.
Double optical surfer: weak CW probe driven by a 4π coupling soliton.

Weak simulton — 0.5π + 0.5π
With both probe and coupling carrying area 0.5π each, the combined area \(\theta_\mathrm{total} = \sqrt{(0.5\pi)^2 + (0.5\pi)^2} \approx 0.71\pi < 2\pi\). This is below the simulton threshold so the medium absorbs both fields — neither propagates as a soliton and the total area decreases monotonically.

Simulton propagation — 0.5π probe, 1.5π coupling
With probe at 0.5π and coupling at 1.5π the combined area \(\theta_\mathrm{total} = \sqrt{(0.5\pi)^2 + (1.5\pi)^2} \approx 1.58\pi\). Still sub-threshold, but the fields are coupled: the medium redistributes energy from the stronger coupling into the probe as they propagate.

Optical surfer — 2π coupling soliton on CW probe
A weak CW probe (\(\Omega_\mathrm{probe} = 10^{-3}\,\Gamma\)) is ramped on at \(t = -1\). A 2π sech soliton is launched on the coupling field at \(t = 0\). The coupling soliton propagates as a SIT soliton; where it overlaps the probe, it opens a local transparency window that drags the probe forward — an optical surfer riding on the CW background.

Double optical surfer — 4π coupling soliton on CW probe
As for the 2π optical surfer, but with a 4π coupling soliton (\(\theta_\mathrm{coupling} = 4\pi = 2 \times 2\pi\)). The higher area produces two surfer solitons: the coupling pulse generates a pair of probe brightening regions that both propagate through the medium.
