Rogue wave pattern of multi-component derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations

Abstract

This paper studies the multi-component derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (n-DNLS) equations featuring nonzero boundary conditions. Employing the Darboux transformation method, we derive higher-order vector rogue wave solutions for the n-DNLS equations. Specifically, we focus on the distinctive scenario where the (n+1)-order characteristic polynomial possesses an explicit (n+1)-multiple root. Additionally, we provide an in-depth analysis of the asymptotic dynamic behaviors and pattern classification inherent to the higher-order vector rogue wave solution of the n-DNLS equations, mainly when one of the internal arbitrary parameters is extremely large. These patterns are related to the root structures in the generalized Wronskian–Hermite polynomial hierarchies.
