A new generalized AKNS hierarchy is presented starting from a 4  4 matrix spectral problem with four potentials. Its generalized bi-Hamiltonian structure is also investigated by using the trace identity. Moreover, the special coupled nonlinear equation, the coupled KdV equation, the KdV equation, the coupled mKdV equation and the mKdV equation are produced from the generalized AKNS hierarchy. Most importantly, a Darboux transformation for the generalized AKNS hierarchy is established with the aid of the gauge transformation between the corresponding 4  4 matrix spectral problem, by which multiple soliton solutions of the generalized AKNS hierarchy are obtained. As a reduction, a Darboux transformation of the mKdV equation and its new analytical positon, negaton and complexiton solutions are given. Ó 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction It is well known that the Darboux transformation (DT) method plays an important role in solving many nonlinear evolution equations [1–13] such as Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), nonlinear Schrödinger, sine–Gordon, and other nonlinear differential equations which have great application in physics. But the main difficulty of the DT method lies in finding an appropriate spectral problem for a given nonlinear evolution equation. Hence, it is interesting for us to search for as many new spectral problems and corresponding nonlinear evolution equations as possible in soliton theory. In 1989, Tu [14] proposed a so-called trace identity to generate integrable evolution equations form the spectral problem. According to this method, many integrable evolution equations, their soliton hierarchies, and Hamiltonian structures are successively obtained [14–18]. We note that most of these well-known soliton hierarchies are related to the 2  2 zero-trace matrix spectral problems [19–22]. It is more important to investigate their mathematical structures and integrable properties, such as Hamiltonian structures [23], constrained flows [24], Darboux transformations (DT) [3], soliton solutions [4–13], algebra–geometric solutions [25], etc. [26]. Some 3  3 and 4  4 matrix AKNS spectral problems have been studied in many papers [27,28], but they have not considered their Darboux transformations and explicit solutions. In this paper, we are interested in bi-Hamiltonian structure, Darboux transformation and multiple soliton solutions for a generalized AKNS hierarchy associated with the following 4  4 matrix spectral problem

The outline of the present paper is as follows. In Section 2, a new generalized AKNS hierarchy is derived. It is shown that the new hierarchy is integrable in Liouville’s sense and possesses bi-Hamiltonian structure. Most importantly, some important nonlinear equations are produced from the generalized AKNS hierarchy, which including the special coupled nonlinear equation, the coupled KdV equation [29], the KdV equation, the coupled mKdV equation [30] and the mKdV equation, etc. In Section 3, the Darboux transformation for the generalized AKNS hierarchy is constructed by considering the gauge transformation of its Lax pair. In Section 4, some multiple soliton solutions of the generalized AKNS hierarchy are derived by the application of the Darboux transformation. In Section 5, as a reduction, a Darboux transformation of the mKdV equation and its new positon [30], negaton and complexiton [31,32] solutions are also obtained. The conclusion is given in Section 6.

2. A generalized AKNS hierarchy and its bi-Hamiltonian structure To obtain the generalized AKNS hierarchy and its bi-Hamiltonian structure with the matrix spectral problem (1), we first consider the stationary zero-curvature equation

3. Darboux transformation In this section, we proceed to construct the Darboux transformation of the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11). We assume that / = (/1, /2, /3, /4)T is a solution of Lax pair (1) and (9). Now we introduce a gauge transformation for the Lax pair (1) and (9)

ðT x þ TUÞT  ¼ ðfsl ðkÞÞ44 ;

ð33Þ





where T stands for the adjugate matrix of T, and every element of the matrix T is an algebraic cofactors of the matrix T. A direct calculation shows that fsl(k) are polynomials of k. Resorting to Eqs. (31) and (32), it can be verified that all kj(j = 1, 2) are roots of fsl(k)(s, l = 1, 2, 3, 4). Hence, Eq. (33) can be written as

ðT x þ TUÞT  ¼ ðdet TÞPðkÞ;

which implies U ¼ PðkÞ. The proof is completed. h Proposition 2. The matrix V ðnÞ determined by the second expression of (28) has the same form as V(n), in which original potentials 1 ; u 2 ; u  3 and u  4 according to the same transformation (29), (30). u1, u2, u3 and u4 are mapped into new potentials u For each integer n P 2, we can prove Proposition 2 similarly to the proof in Proposition 1. According to Propositions 1 and 2, the transformation (29), (30), maps the Lax pair (1) and (9) into another Lax pair (27) and (28) of the same type. Therefore, both of the Lax pair lead to the same system (11). We call the transformation  u 1 ; u 2 ; u 3 ; u  4 Þ a Darboux transformation of the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11). We obtain the ð/; u1 ; u2 ; u3 ; u4 Þ ! ð/; following assertion: 1 ; u 2 ; u 3 ; u  4 Þ of the generalized AKNS Theorem 1. Every solution (u1, u2, u3, u4) of the system (11) is mapped into a new solution ðu hierarchy (11) under the Darboux transformation (29), (30).

4. Soliton solutions of the generalized AKNS hierarchy In this section, we will obtain some multi-soliton solutions of the whole generalized AKNS hierarchy (11) by applying the Darboux transformation (29), (30). If choose a trivial solution u1 = 0, u2 = 0, u3 = 0 and u4 = 0 of the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11), then the Lax pair (1) and (9) are written as

/1;x ¼ k/1 ;

/2;x ¼ k/2 ;

/1;t ¼ bkn /1 ;

/3;x ¼ k/3 ;

/2;t ¼ bkn /2 ;

u1½0 ¼ u1  2b1 ; u2½0 ¼ u2  2c1 ; u3½0 ¼ u3 þ 2f 1 ; u4½0 ¼ u4 þ 2s1 ;

where b1 = b, c1 = c, f1 = f, s1 = s, a1 = a, d1 = d, g1 = g and h1 = h. Substituting (31), (32) and (37) (with j = 1, 2) into (38) with the zero seed (u1 = u2 = u3 = u4 = 0) and constant parameter selections

    where n1 ¼ 2 xk1 þ 2tkn1 ; n2 ¼ 2 xk2 þ 2tkn2 . Particularly, the solutions of the coupled integrable Eqs. (13) and (16) are obtained by (40) with n = 2 and n = 3 respectively. If different spectral parameters k1 and k2 are chosen, the solution determined by (40) may be of different properties. For example, when k1 = 1,k2 = 1, the functions (40) is a one-soliton solution of the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11) (see Fig. 1). After taking the Darboux transformation (29), (30) once again, we can obtain the explicit solution for the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11) as follows:

Reduction of the Darboux transformation and analytical solutions of the mKdV equation In this section, we will discuss a reduction of the Darboux transformation (29), (30), by which the Darboux transformations of the coupled mKdV Eq.

6. Conclusions In this paper, we have derived a new integrable generalized AKNS hierarchy (11) and its bi-Hamiltonian structure with the help of a 4  4 matrix spectral problem. We have demonstrated an approach to constructing a Darboux transformation for the generalized AKNS hierarchy (11) based on a gauge transformation between the corresponding 4  4 spectral problem with four potentials. The Darboux transformations for the coupled mKdV equation and mKdV equation are obtained through the reduction technique. As applications of Darboux transformations, some analytical positon, negaton, complexiton and their interaction solutions of the mKdV Eq. (20) are discussed. The analytical positon, negaton and complexiton solutions of the coupled mKdV Eq. (19) can be also obtained by its Darboux transformation (47), (48). How to construct the DTs for the coupled KdV Eq. (17) and the KdV Eq. (18) from DT (29), (30) in order to give out the corresponding positon, negaton and complexiton solutions is also an interesting and a significant topic. We shall consider it in the near future.
