Construction of multiple soliton solutions of the quintic nonlinear Schrodinger equation

Abstract: In this paper, an extended nonlinear Schrodinger equation with higher-order that includes fifth-order dispersion with matching higher-order nonlinear terms is investigated under zero boundary condition at infinity. Carrying out the spectral analysis, a kind of matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated on the real axis. Then on basis of the resulting matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem under restriction of no reflection, multiple soliton solutions of the extended nonlinear Schrodinger equation are generated explicitly.
