We present a method to construct inverse scattering problems for integrable nonlinear evolution equations in the two-spatial dimension. The temporal component is the adjoint of the linearized equation and the spatial component is a partial differential equation with respect to the spatial variables. Although this idea has been known for the one-spatial dimension for some time, it is the first time that this method is presented for the case of the higher-spatial dimension. We present this method in detail for the Veselov-Novikov equation and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation.

Abstract Under investigation in this paper are the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations (CNLSEs) and coupled Burgers-type equations (CBEs), which are, respectively, a model for certain birefringent optical fibers Raman-scattering, Kerr and gain/loss effects, and a generalized model in fluid dynamics. Special attention should be paid to the existing claim that the solitons for the CNLSEs do not exist. Through certain dependent-variable transformations, the CNLSEs are reduced to a Manakov system and the CBEs are linearized. In that way, some new solutions of the CNLSEs and CBEs are obtained via symbolic computation. Especially the one-dark-soliton-like solutions for the CNLSEs have been found, against the existing claim.

In a recent paper (Zhang (2013)), the author claims that he has proposed two rules to modify Ibragimov’s theorem on conservation laws to “ensure the theorem can be applied to nonlinear evolution equations with any mixed derivatives.” In this letter, we analysis the paper. Indeed, the so-called “modification rules” are needless and the theorem of Ibragimov can be applied to construct conservation laws directly for nonlinear equations with any mixed derivatives as long as the formal Lagrangian is rewritten in symmetric form. Moreover, the conservation laws obtained by the so-called “modification rules” in the paper under discussion are equivalent to the one obtained by Ibragimov’s theorem.


The transformed rational function method can be considered as unification of the tanh type methods, the homogeneous balance method, the mapping method, the exp-function method and the F-expansion type methods. In this paper, we present complexiton solutions of (3+1) dimensional Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and a new (3+1) dimensional generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation by using extended transformed rational function method which provides very useful and effective way to obtain complexiton solutions of nonlinear evolution equations.

The inverse scattering method can be used to solve the initial value problem for various nonlinear evolution equations of physical importance. Here an extensive class of equations for which the technique is available is delimited.
