Hyperelliptic quasi-periodic and soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (Q1066364)

In order to examine the nonlinear Schrödinger equations \[ (NLS)_{1,2}\quad u_{xx}-iu_ t=\pm 2 | u|^ 2 u. \] The author considers the complexified version of the equations \[ (NLS)\quad u_{xx}-iu_ t=-2u^ 2v,\quad v_{xx}+iv_ t=-2v^ 2u, \] where u and v are appropriate holomorphic functions. She constructs quasi- periodic solutions of (NLS) by hyperelliptic theta functions (using methods from algebraic geometry) and discusses solitonary behaviour of certain solutions of (NLS). She also gives some applications of her results, for example to inverse spectral problems for finite-genus periodic potentials.
