Theoretical investigations will be undertaken of nonlinear                 phenomena in plasmas and fluids.  The four major areas of                       research will be:  (1) Nonlinear effects on laser-plasma                        interactions, (2) solitons in optical wave guide systems, (3)                   algebraic structure of integrable nonlinear dynamical systems,                  and (4) control of plasma instability by neural networks.  It is                intended to study the effect of an induced smooth incoherent beam               on nonlinear parametric instabilities, particularly the dramatic                reduction of Raman backscattering.  Analytic and numerical                      calculations will be performed of the distribution and emission                 rate of solitons from a resonant region as a function of pump                   power.  Regimes will be identified in which regular propagation                 of steady solitons is possible in optical glass fibers.  Attempts               will be made to understand the mechanism that makes a nonlinear                 dynamical system integrable.  Strategies will be investigated to                feedback control macroscopic plasma instabilities through use of                neural networks; a possible model system is a nonlinear multi-                  resonant electrical network with active elements.
