Stability in integrable nonlocal nonlinear equations

Recently a variety of nonlocal integrable systems has been introduced that besides fields located at particular space-time points simultaneously also contain fields that are located at different, but symmetrically related, points. Here we investigate different types of soliton solutions with regard to their stability against linear perturbations obtained for the nonlocal version of the Hirota/nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the so-called Alice and Bob versions of the Korteweg-de Vries and Bousinesq equations. In this work, we encounter different types of scenarios: Solition solutions that are linearly stable or unstable and also solutions that change their stability properties depending on the parameter regime they are in.
