Abstract
Analytic and numerical evidence is presented that demonstrates that a dispersion-managed breather can be supported in an optical fiber even when the average dispersion is in the normal regime. This nonlinear behavior, which is contrary to guiding-center theory, is shown to originate from the reversible dynamics associated with the strong quadratic chirp that is generated in both the anomalous and the normal dispersion regimes.Keywords
