Abstract
We introduce the basic properties of solitons in elliptical photonic lattices induced optically by a superposition of Mathieu beams. Owing to the modulation of the intensity along its elliptical rings, these lattices allow novel dynamics of propagation, being possible, for the first time to our knowledge, to propagate solitons in an elliptic motion with varying rotation rate.
