We construct matrix integrable fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger equations through reducing the Ablowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur matrix eigenvalue problems. Based on properties of eigenvalue and adjoint eigenvalue problems, we solve the corresponding reflectionless Riemann–Hilbert problems, where eigenvalues could equal adjoint eigenvalues, and formulate their soliton solutions via those reflectionless Riemann–Hilbert problems. Soliton solutions are computed for three illustrative examples of scalar and two-component integrable fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger equations.

The aim of this paper is to construct a six-component integrable hierarchy associated with a matrix spatial spectral problem of arbitrary order. The adopted method is the zero curvature formulation. The corresponding Hamiltonian formulation is furnished by using the trace identity, which guarantees the Liouville integrability for the resulting hierarchy. Two illustrative examples of integrable equations of lower orders are six-component coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations and modified Korteweg–de Vries equations.

We analyze N-soliton solutions and explore the Hirota N-soliton conditions for scalar (1 + 1)-dimensional equations, within the Hirota bilinear formulation. An algorithm to verify the Hirota conditions is proposed by factoring out common factors out of the Hirota function in N wave vectors and comparing degrees of the involved polynomials containing the common factors. Applications to a class of generalized KdV equations and a class of generalized higher-order KdV equations are made, together with all proofs of the existence of N-soliton solutions to all equations in two classes.

The deformation theory, in Ref [5],of travelling wave solutions to a generalized KdV equation is modified. The necessary and sufficient condition for a relevant algebraic equation to possess nonzero real root is presented and thus an error of analyses in Ref. [5] is pointe-dont. Finally an explicit formula of the solitary wave solutions generated by deformetion theory is obtained directly from the generalized KdV equation itselp.

A linear superposition is studied for Wronskian rational solutions to the KdV equation, which include rogue wave solutions. It is proved that it is equivalent to a polynomial identity that an arbitrary linear combination of two Wronskian polynomial solutions with a difference two between the Wronskian orders is again a solution to the bilinear KdV equation. It is also conjectured that there is no other rational solutions among general linear superpositions of Wronskian rational solutions.

Abstract We consider a linear combination of the potential KP equation and the BKP equation, and call it a combined pKP–BKP equation. We prove that the combined pKP–BKP equation satisfies the Hirota N -soliton condition and thus it possesses an N -soliton solution. The proof is an application of an algorithm to compare degrees of homogeneous polynomials associated with the Hirota function in N wave vectors.

A matrix spectral problem is researched with an arbitrary parameter. Through zero curvature equations, two hierarchies are constructed of isospectral and nonisospectral generalized derivative nonlinear schrödinger equations. The resulting hierarchies include the Kaup-Newell equation, the Chen-Lee-Liu equation, the Gerdjikov-Ivanov equation, the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation, the Sharma-Tasso-Olever equation and a new equation as special reductions. The integro-differential operator related to the isospectral and nonisospectral hierarchies is shown to be not only a hereditary but also a strong symmetry of the whole isospectral hierarchy. For the isospectral hierarchy, the corresponding τ -symmetries are generated from the nonisospectral hierarchy and form an infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra with the K-symmetries.
