Abstract (english)

We theoretically study discrete photonic lattices in more than three dimensions and point out that such systems can exist in continuous three-dimensional space. We study discrete diffraction in the linear regime and demonstrate the existence of four-dimensional (4D) tesseract solitons in nonlinear 4D periodic photonic lattices. Finally, we propose a design towards a potential realization of such periodic 4D lattices in experiments.
