Systematic results of collisions between discrete spatiotemporal dissipative Ginzburg-Landau solitons in two-dimensional photonic lattices are reported. The generic outcomes are identified for (i) the collision of two identical solitons located in the corner, at the edge, and in the center of the photonic lattice, and for (ii) the collision of two non-identical corner and edge solitons located at different distances from the boundaries of the photonic lattice. Depending on the values of the kick (collision momentum) and of the nonlinear (cubic) gain, the collision scenarios include soliton merging, creation of an extra soliton, soliton bouncing, soliton spreading, and quasi-elastic (symmetric) interactions.

We overview our recent theoretical results on spatio-spectral control, diffraction management, and broadband all-optical switching of polychromatic light in periodically curved one and two dimensional arrays of coupled optical waveguides. In particular, we show that polychromatic light beams and patterns produced by white-light and supercontinuum sources can experience wavelength-independent normal, anomalous, or zero diffraction in specially designed structures. We also demonstrate that in the nonlinear regime, it is possible to achieve broadband all-optical switching of polychromatic light in a directional waveguide coupler with special bending of the waveguide axes. Our results suggest novel opportunities for creation of all-optical logical gates and switches which can operate in a very broad frequency region, e.g., covering the entire visible spectrum.
