High-energy optical Schrodinger solitons

The conditions for the existence of a Lax pair were determined and exact analytic solutions to the nonlinear evolution equations of the Schrodinger type with complex and nonuniform potentials were found. In particular, these solutions provide a basis for the soliton management concept in applied problems and solve the problems of optimal energy accumulation by a Schrodinger soliton in an active medium and soliton amplification in optical fiber communication lines and soliton lasers.
