Abstract:
A method is proposed for finding Lax type representations for nonlinear evolution
(one-dimensional) equations of mathematical physics. It is shown that the Schrödinger type
nonlinear model $\psi_t-i\psi_{xx}+2|\psi|^2\psi_x=0$ admits a Lax-type representation
and is a Hamiltonian completely integrable dynamical system. Exact quasiperiodic
(finite-gap, i.e having only a finite number of stability bands in its spectrum)
solutions of this system are obtained in terms of Riemann theta functions.
