    Abstract Whitham modulation equations are derived for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the plane ((2+1)‐dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger [2d NLS]) with small dispersion. The modulation equations are obtained in terms of both physical and Riemann‐type variables; the latter yields equations of hydrodynamic type. The complete 2d NLS Whitham system consists of six dynamical equations in evolutionary form and two constraints. As an application, we determine the linear stability of one‐dimensional traveling waves. In both the elliptic and hyperbolic cases, the traveling waves are found to be unstable. This result is consistent with previous investigations of stability by other methods and is supported by direct numerical calculations.

    The semi-classical Korteweg–de Vries equation for step-like data is considered with a small parameter in front of the highest derivative. Using perturbation analysis, Whitham theory is constructed to the higher order. This allows the order one phase and the complete leading-order solution to be obtained; the results are confirmed by extensive numerical calculations.

    Abstract Dispersive shock waves (DSWs) of the defocusing radial nonlinear Schrödinger (rNLS) equation in two spatial dimensions are studied. This equation arises naturally in Bose‐Einstein condensates, water waves, and nonlinear optics. A unified nonlinear WKB approach, equally applicable to integrable or nonintegrable partial differential equations, is used to find the rNLS Whitham modulation equation system in both physical and hydrodynamic type variables. The description of DSWs obtained via Whitham theory is compared with direct rNLS numerics; the results demonstrate very good quantitative agreement. On the other hand, as expected, comparison with the corresponding DSW solutions of the one‐dimensional NLS equation exhibits significant qualitative and quantitative differences.
