The second-type derivative nonlinear Schrodinger (DNLSII) equation was introduced as an integrable model in 1979. Very recently, the DNLSII equation has been shown by an experiment to be a model of the evolution of optical pulses involving self-steepening without concomitant self-phase-modulation. In this paper the $n$-fold Darboux transformation (DT) $T_n$ of the coupled DNLSII equations is constructed in terms of determinants. Comparing with the usual DT of the soliton equations, this kind of DT is unusual because $T_n$ includes complicated integrals of seed solutions in the process of iteration. By a tedious analysis, these integrals are eliminated in $T_n$ except the integral of the seed solution. Moreover, this $T_n$ is reduced to the DT of the DNLSII equation under a reduction condition. As applications of $T_n$, the explicit expressions of soliton, rational soliton, breather, rogue wave and multi-rogue wave solutions for the DNLSII equation are displayed.
In classical shallow water wave (SWW) theory, there exist two integrable one-dimensional SWW equation [Hirota-Satsuma (HS) type and Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) type] in the Boussinesq approximation. In this paper, we mainly focus on the integrable SWW equation of AKNS type. The nonlocal symmetry in form of square spectral function is derived starting from its Lax pair. Infinitely many nonlocal symmetries are presented by introducing the arbitrary spectrum parameter. These nonlocal symmetries can be localized and the SWW equation is extended to enlarged system with auxiliary dependent variables. Then Darboux transformation for the prolonged system is found by solving the initial value problem. Similarity reductions related to the nonlocal symmetry and explicit group invariant solutions are obtained. It is shown that the soliton-cnoidal wave interaction solution, which represents soliton lying on a cnoidal periodic wave background, can be obtained analytically. Interesting characteristics of the interaction solution between soliton and cnoidal periodic wave are displayed graphically.
In this letter, for the discrete parity-time-symmetric nonlocal nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation, we construct the Darboux transformation, which provides an algebraic iterative algorithm to obtain a series of analytic solutions from a known one. To illustrate, the breathing-soliton solutions, periodic-wave solutions and localized rational soliton solutions are derived with the zero and plane-wave solutions as the seeds. The properties of those solutions are also discussed, and particularly the asymptotic analysis reveals all possible cases of the interaction between the discrete rational dark and antidark solitons.
In this paper, a general bright-dark soliton solution in the form of Pfaffian is constructed for an integrable semi-discrete vector NLS equation via Hirotas bilinear method. One- and two-bright-dark soliton solutions are explicitly presented for two-component semi-discrete NLS equation; two-bright-one-dark, and one-bright-two-dark soliton solutions are also given explicitly for three-component semi-discrete NLS equation. The asymptotic behavior is analysed for two-soliton solutions.
We propose a general integrable lattice system involving some free parameters, which contains known integrable lattice systems such as the Ablowitz-Ladik discretization of the nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation as special cases. With a suitable choice of the parameters, it provides a new integrable space-discretization of the derivative NLS equation known as the Chen-Lee-Liu equation. Analogously to the continuous case, the space-discrete Chen-Lee-Liu system possesses a Lax pair and admits a complex conjugation reduction between the two dependent variables. Thus, we obtain a proper space-discretization of the Chen-Lee-Liu equation defined on the three lattice sites $n-1$, $n$, $n+1$ for the first time. Considering a negative flow of the discrete Chen-Lee-Liu hierarchy, we obtain a proper discretization of the massive Thirring model in light-cone coordinates. Multicomponent generalizations of the obtained discrete equations are straightforward because the performed computations are valid for the general case where the dependent variables are vector- or matrix-valued.
