Dynamic patterns of high-order rogue waves for Sasa-Satsuma equation (Q282015)

The paper aims to produce generalized higher-order rational and semi-rational solutions to the Sasa-Satsuma equation, which is an integrable extension of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation for a complex functions \(q(x,t)\): NEWLINE\[NEWLINEiq_t -q_{xx} - 2| q|^2q + i[6(| q|^2q)_x -3(| q|^2)_xq +q_{xxx}] = 0.NEWLINE\]NEWLINE By means of a modified dressing method, higher-order mixed rational-breather solutions are constructed via finding the respective Bloch (alias Jost) functions, in terms of the respective inverse scattering transform, and the related Schur polynomials. Under special conditions imposed on parameters, the mixed solutions go over into purely rational ones, which represent higher-order rogues waves.
