On Darboux transformations for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Abstract: We consider Darboux transformations for the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. A new theorem for Darboux transformations of operators with no derivative term are presented and proved. The solution is expressed in quasideterminant forms. Additionally, the parabolic and soliton solutions of the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are given as explicit examples.
