Abstract

The autoresonance in nonlinear three-wave interactions is discussed. The phenomenon is characteristic of inhomogenous (or time-dependent) media in the presence of nonlinear wave-vector (frequency) shifts and leads to a persistent and efficient redistribution of the wave action fluxes (action densities) via a continuing spatial (temporal) self-adjustment of the nonlinear resonance relation. Conditions for the autoresonance are found and the phenomenon is illustrated by numerical examples.
