Families of quasi-rational solutions of the NLS equation as an extension of higher order Peregrine breathers.

2011

We construct a multi-parametric family of solutions of the focusing NLS equation from the known result describing the multi phase almost-periodic elementary solutions given in terms of Riemann theta functions. We give a new representation of their solutions in terms of Wronskians determinants of order 2N composed of elementary trigonometric functions. When we perform a special passage to the limit when all the periods tend to infinity, we get a family of quasi-rational solutions. This leads to efficient representations for the Peregrine breathers of orders N=1,, 2, 3, first constructed by Akhmediev and his co-workers and also allows to get a simpler derivation of the generic formulas corres…
