New derivation of soliton solutions to the AKNS$_2$ system via dressing transformation methods

We consider certain boundary conditions supporting soliton solutions in the generalized non-linear Schrödinger equation (AKNS$_r$)\,($r=1,2$). Using the dressing transformation (DT) method and the related tau functions we study the AKNS$_{r}$ system for the vanishing, (constant) non-vanishing and the mixed boundary conditions, and their associated bright, dark, and bright-dark N-soliton solutions, respectively. Moreover, we introduce a modified DT related to the dressing group in order to consider the free field boundary condition and derive generalized N-dark-dark solitons. As a reduced submodel of the AKNS$_r$ system we study the properties of the focusing, defocusing and mixed focusing-defocusing versions of the so-called coupled non-linear Schrödinger equation ($r-$CNLS), which has recently been considered in many physical applications. We have shown that two$-$dark$-$dark$-$soliton bound states exist in the AKNS$_2$ system, and three$-$ and higher$-$dark$-$dark$-$soliton bound states can not exist. The AKNS$_r$\,($r\geq 3$) extension is briefly discussed in this approach. The properties and calculations of some matrix elements using level one vertex operators are outlined.

Nonvanishing boundary conditions and dark solitons in the NLS model

We consider non-vanishing boundary conditions (NVBC) for the NLS model [6,7,27] in the context of the hybrid dressing transformation and $τ$-function approach. In order to write the NLS model in a suitable form to deal with non-vanishing boundary conditions it is introduced a new spectral parameter in such a way that the usual NLS parameter will depend on the affine parameter through the so-called Zukowsky function. In the context of the dressing transformation the introduction of the affine parameter avoids the construction of certain Riemann sheets for the usual NLS spectral parameter. In this way one introduces a Lax pair defined for the new spectral parameter and the relevant NVBC NLS $τ$ functions are obtained by the dressing transformation method. We construct the one and two dark-soliton solutions explicitly.
