Abstract
It is demonstrated that a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with certain nonlinearities allows for an existence of multistable singular solitons (i.e., singular solitons with the same carried power but different propagation parameters). In nonlinear optics, these solitons may exist in the form of either short bistable pulses, or bistable self-trapping (both two- and three-dimensional).
