The First Integral Method to the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations in Higher Dimensions by Shoukry Ibrahim Atia El-Ganaini

“…The first integral method introduced by Feng is adopted for solving some important nonlinear partial differential equations, including the (2 + 1)-dimensional hyperbolic nonlinear Schrodinger (HNLS) equation, the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger (GNLS) equation with a source, and the higher-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation in nonlinear optical fibers. This method provides polynomial first integrals for autonomous planar systems. …”
