Abstract
A parabolically longitudinally bending waveguide array imprinted into thermal nonlinear media is found to support the localized stationary solitons. The localization results from the suppression of a curvature effect by the nonlinearity with an infinite-range nonlocality. The localization criterion is given analytically. Solitons propagate stably along a curved trajectory without bending loss, and their locations are significantly influenced by the waveguide curvature. These solitons represent the first example of stationary localized solitons encountered in curved waveguides.
