Discrete Symmetries, Parameter-Induced Symmetry Breaking, and Exact Zero-Pole Dynamics in Colliding Massless Rational Pulses

Discrete symmetries govern the motion and real axis crossings of interference zeros in the meromorphic continuation of a wave field, thereby determining the singular structure of its logarithmic derivatives. We considered two counter-propagating second-order rational pulses that satisfy the one-dimensional massless wav...
