Nonlinear Schrödinger type tetrahedron maps

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the construction of new solutions in terms of birational maps to the functional tetrahedron equation and parametric tetrahedron equation. We present a method for constructing solutions to the parametric tetrahedron equation via Darboux transformations. In particular, we study matrix refactorisation problems for Darboux transformations associated with the nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) and the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation, and we construct novel nine-dimensional tetrahedron maps. We show that the latter can be restricted to six-dimensional parametric tetrahedron maps on invariant leaves. Finally, we construct parametric tetrahedron maps employing degenerated Darboux transformations of NLS and DNLS type.
