In this paper Lou＇s direct perturbation method is applied to the perturbed coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations to obtain their asymptotical solutions, which include not only the zero-order solutions but also the first-order modifications. Based on the asymptotical solutions, the effects of perturbations on soliton parameters and the collision between two solitons are then discussed in brief. Furthermore, we directly simulate the perturbed coupled nonlinear SchrSdinger equations by split-step Fourier method to check the validity of the direct perturbation method. It turns out that our analytical results are well supported by the numerical calculations.
New forms of different-periodic travelling wave solutions for the （2＋1）-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov （ZK） equation and the Davey-Stewartson （DS） equation are obtained by the linear superposition approach of Jacobi elliptic function. A sequence of cyclic identities plays an important role in these procedures.
The usual （1＋1）-dimensional Schwartz Boussinesq equation is extended to the （1＋1）-dimensional space-time symmetric form and the general （n＋1）-dimensional space-time symmetric form. These extensions are Painleve integrable in the sense that they possess the Painleve property. The single soliton solutions and the periodic travelling wave solutions for arbitrary dimensional space-time symmetric form are obtained by the Painleve-Backlund transformation.
This paper analyses bright and dark spatial self-similar waves propagation and collision in graded-index nonlinear waveguide amplifiers with self-focusing and self-defocusing Kerr nonlinearities. It finds an appropriate transformation for the first time such that the nonlinear Schrodinger equation （NLSE） with varying coefficients transform into standard NLSE. It obtains one-solitonlike, two-solitonlike and multi-solitonlike self-similar wave solutions by using the transformation. Furthermore, it analyses the features of the self-similar waves and their collisions.
