Abstract: We consider the following nonlinear Schr"{o}dinger equation of derivative type: �egin{equation}i partial_t u + partial_x^2 u +i |u|^{2} partial_x u +b|u|^4u=0 , quad (t,x) in mathbb{R} imesmathbb{R}, b inmathbb{R}. end{equation} If b=0, this equation is known as a gauge equivalent form of well-known derivative nonlinear Schr"{o}dinger equation (DNLS), which is mass critical and completely integrable. The equation can be considered as a generalized equation of DNLS while preserving mass criticality and Hamiltonian structure. For DNLS it is known that if the initial data u0inH1(mathbbR) satisfies the mass condition |u0|L22<4pi, the corresponding solution is global and bounded. In this paper we first establish the mass condition on the equation for general binmathbbR, which is exactly corresponding to 4pi-mass condition for DNLS, and then characterize it from the viewpoint of potential well theory. We see that the mass threshold value gives the turning point in the structure of potential wells generated by solitons. In particular, our results for DNLS give a characterization of both 4pi-mass condition and algebraic solitons.
