We combine the F-expansion method with the homogeneous balance principle to build astrategy to find analytical solitonic and periodic wave solutions to a generalized nonlinearSchrödinger equation with distributed coefficients, linear gain/loss, and nonlinear gain/absorption. In the case of a dimensionless effective Gross–Pitaevskii equation whichdescribes the evolution of the wave function of a quasi-one-dimensional cigar-shapedBose–Einstein condensate, the building strategy is applied to generate analytical solutions.

1. Introduction
The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation, a basic equa-tion in nonlinear science, is the subject of much currentinterest due to its many applications in natural sciencesuch as biology [1], chemistry [2], communication andalmost all branches of physics and applied mathematicssuch as plasma physics [3], fluid dynamics [4], and nonlin-ear optics as well as condensed matter physics [5]. Becauseof its relevance to fundamental aspects of physics, manymethods for solving standard NLS equation have beenelaborated: Darboux–Bäcklung transform [6], inversescattering transform [7], variational parameter approach[8], and variational method [9].
In this communication, combining several existingmethods for solving the standard NLS equation, we presenta large family of exact nonlinear wave solutions of thegeneralized NLS equation with varying dispersion, nonlin-earity, gain or loss, nonlinear gain or absorption, and exter-nal potential [10–12]. We are mainly interested in thepropagation of solitary waves and waves propagating withperiodic amplitude in the system described by thegeneralized NLS equation under consideration. In general,
soliton propagation in nonlinear systems is governed bythe generalized NLS equation with distributed coefficients

where wðx; tÞ is the complex envelope of the electrical fieldin a co-moving frame, ecðtÞ is the gain/loss function, vðtÞaccounts for the nonlinear gain or absorption, PðtÞ repre-sents the group velocity dispersion, gðtÞ is the functionalnonlinearity parameter, and kðtÞx2 þ kðtÞx represents theexternal potential. We assume that at least one of gðtÞ andvðtÞ is not a null function. In the absence of external poten-tial, Eq. (1) describes the amplification or absorption ofpulses propagating in a single mode optical fiber with dis-tributed dispersion and nonlinearity. In the theory ofBose–Einstein condensates (BECs), Eq. (1) is the quasi-one-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation [13] andis known as the model equation for the cigar-shaped BEC.In the case of BECs, PðtÞ is the time-modulated dispersion;the functional nonlinearity parameter gðtÞ is the time-vary-ing scattering length, which is negative (positive) for repul-sive (attractive) interatomic interaction; kðtÞ, the strengthof the magnetic trap, may be positive (confining potential)or negative (repulsive potential); the linear term kðtÞx ofthe potential may correspond to the gravitational field or

some linear potentials. It is worth noting that the conden-sate can interact with the normal atomic cloud throughthree-body interaction, which can be phenomenologicallyincorporated by a gain or loss term ecðtÞ, which is a smallparameter related to the feeding (if positive) or loss (if neg-ative) of atoms in the condensate [14–16]. The imaginarypart of the two-body scattering length, vðtÞ wj j2w, accountsfor the two-body loss (here, vðtÞ is related to a dipolar relax-ation). Eq. (1) in the case of the GP equation with distributedcoefficients can be used to describe the control and manage-ment of BEC by properly choosing different time-dependentparameters [17–20]. In the case when kðtÞ ¼ ecðtÞ � 0,Eq. (1) serves as a model to describe the dynamics of thecondensate surface [21]. In this case, k is a constant forcearising from linearizing the harmonic potential near thesurface: k ¼ mx2R;x being the characteristic frequency ofa spherically symmetric harmonic trapping potential, R isthe radius of the condensate, and m is the mass of an atom.Then x is the coordinate normal to the surface such that thebulk of the condensate exists in the region x < 0. In the ab-sence of the loss/gain term ecðtÞ, the potential in Eq. (1) hasrecently been used to study the internal Josephson-liketunneling in two-component BECs [22].
In the next section, we elaborate strategies for findingexact nonlinear wave solutions of Eq. (1). These strategiesare applied in Section 3 in the case of a dimensionlesseffective GP equation, which describes the evolution ofthe wave function of a quasi-one-dimensional cigar-shaped BEC. The main results are summarized in Section 4.
2. Strategies for finding exact analytical solitonic andperiodic solutions
In order to discuss the cases of a variety of achievableprofiles of the generalized NLS equation with time-depen-dent external potential and nonconservative parts and toobtain the corresponding analytical solutions, we assumethe following ansatz:

where g0ðtÞ ¼ ‘ðtÞgðtÞ exp 2gðtÞ½ �; k0ðtÞ ¼ PðtÞ‘ðtÞbðtÞ, andv0ðtÞ ¼ ‘ðtÞvðtÞ exp 2gðtÞ½ �. It is easily seen that in all thedifferential equations of system (3), the functional param-eter cðtÞ appears either explicitly or implicitly. Moreover,the differential equation for cðtÞ involves two physical
coefficients of Eq. (1), the group velocity dispersion PðtÞand the strength of the magnetic trap kðtÞ. In order to solvethe other equations of system (3), one must solve the equa-tion for cðtÞ first. This testifies to the importance of thefunctional parameter cðtÞ. In the mathematical literature,the differential equation for cðtÞ is known as Riccati equa-tion and does not admit analytical solutions for arbitraryPðtÞ and kðtÞ. In order to find analytical solutions of theabove Riccati equation, it is reasonable to make someappropriate transformation: We write this equation as

where C0 – 0 is an arbitrary real constant. If the strengthkðtÞ of the magnetic trap is proportional to the time-mod-ulated dispersion PðtÞ, then Eq. (5a) will be a second orderlinear differential equation with constant coefficients andits general solution is easily found. In the case where 2k
C20P
is not a constant, Eq. (5a) coincides with the well-knownSchrödinger equation of quantum mechanics for the wavefunction W ¼ WðnÞ of a particle of mass m moving with an
energy eigenvalue E in a potential VðnÞ ¼ C20mEP þ �h2k

corresponding energy eigenvalue En are known for a givenpotential VðnÞ (here n stands for some set of quantumnumbers), then for any strength kðtÞ of the magnetic trapand any time-modulated dispersion PðtÞ satisfying condi-tion � k

will be a solution of the Riccati equation dcdt ¼ 2Pc2 � k. With
the help of the particular solution cnðtÞ, one may reduce theRiccati equation for cðtÞ to the Bernoulli equation whosegeneral solution can be easily found.
If cðtÞ is a solution of the above Riccati equation, then oneeasily verifies that the other functional parameters ‘ðtÞ, TðtÞ,bðtÞ, and aðtÞ appearing in system (3) are defined as

where ‘ð0Þ; Tð0Þ; bð0Þ, and að0Þ are the values at timet ¼ 0 of ‘ðtÞ; TðtÞ; bðtÞ, and aðtÞ, respectively. With thehelp of Eq. (6), we can express the coefficients of the NLSEq. (4) in terms of the coefficients of Eq. (1):

In order to solve system (8a) and (8b), we apply theF-expansion method [23] and seek A and B in the form

where a; b; c; d, and e are five real constants related to theelliptic modulus of Jacobian elliptic functions. We imposeon hðX; TÞ and AðX; TÞ to be functions of both X and T so thatneither h1ðTÞ nor a2ðTÞj j þ a3ðTÞj j is a null function. Whena3ðTÞj j þ b4ðTÞj j > 0, we should have FðhÞ > 0. In Eq. (9c),b1ðTÞ; b2ðTÞ; b3ðTÞ, and b4ðTÞ are respectively the chirpparameter, the frequency shift, the phase offset, and thenonlinear chirp. Inserting Eqs. (9a)–(9c) and (10) intosystem (8a), (8b) and applying the homogeneous balanceprinciple [24] yield
Here, (11) is a mixed system, containing both algebraicand ordinary differential equations. It should be noted thatthe second equation of system (11), that is, the differentialequation for b1ðTÞ plays the same role as the Riccati equa-tion in system (3); one can easily see that this is a Riccatiequation with null free term. One has to solve this equationfor b1 first and then find solutions to the remaining equa-tions. Indeed, b1ðTÞ appears either explicitly or implicitlyin all the differential equations of this system, except forthe first equation for b4; solving the equation for b1ðTðtÞÞ

The last two equations in system (12) impose complemen-tary conditions on a; b; g0 and v0. In this system, it is rea-sonable to consider b4 ¼ 0 only in the case when v0 ¼ 0,that is, when the cubic dissipative term is absent fromEq. (1). It is important to notice that in this case, it is alsopossible to work with b4 – 0. Thus, one must impose onthe coefficients a and b in Eq. (10) to satisfy the conditionaþ 4b ¼ 0.

It should be noted that we are interested in only phys-ical solutions of Eq. (1), that is, in real solutions that arefree from singularities. In order to obtain physical solutionsof Eq. (1), it is then necessary to work with only physicalsolutions (real, continuous, and bounded solutions) ofEq. (10).
We now write down some special physical functionsthat satisfy both the first-order and the second-order ODEs(10) to be used to build nonlinear wave solutions of Eq. (1).Here, we limit ourselves to those functions that are ex-pressed either in terms of the Jacobian elliptic functionscnðel0h;mÞ; snðel0h;mÞ;dnðel0h;mÞ, and ndðel0h;mÞ, or interms of functions obtained from Jacobian elliptic func-tions in the limit when either m! 1 (for solitary wave-likesolutions) or m! 0 (for trigonometric solutions). Here,m 2 ½0;1� is the elliptic modulus, and el0 is a real number,expressed in terms of the coefficients a; b; c; d, and e ofEq. (10).

Let us take a look at the special case when h1ðTÞ ¼ h10 isa constant. It follows from system (11) thathðX; TÞ ¼ h10 X þ h2ðTÞ=h10½ �. If, for simplicity, we limitourselves to the case when a1ðTÞ ¼ b4ðTÞ ¼ 0 and a2ðTÞand a3ðTÞ are constants, the corresponding FðhÞ leads tothe following traveling wave solution of Eq. (4):

In this special case, each of the above Jacobian ellipticfunctions leads to a solution of Eq. (4) of the following form

where qn is any of the Jacobian elliptic functions cn , sn;dnand nd appearing in Eqs. (16)–(18). In Eq. (19), K20 appearsonly for functions from (18). When K20 ¼ 0 (i.e., a30 ¼ 0)and h2ðTÞ=h10 ¼ tT, Eq. (19) gives the so-called start super-position solution [25] which leads to the following possiblesuperposition solution [26] of Eq. (4)

where n 2 f2;4g and KðmÞ denotes the complete ellipticintegral of first kind. The number q is an integer, and thespeed tp is to be determined by using certain remarkableproperties of Jacobian elliptic functions.

existing superposition solution is tq ¼ const: ¼ t0.By combining an F-expansion method with the
homogeneous balance principle, we have thus presenteda strategy of finding analytical solutions of a class of com-plex cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with distributedcoefficients. This combination appears as an explicit vari-ant of the inverse-problem method of finding analyticalsolutions of partial differential equations. In the generalform, such a combination has been proposed for the gener-ation of wide classes of exact solutions to the stationaryGross–Pitaevskii equation [28].
3. Applications to a dimensionless effective GP equationfor wave functions of a quasi-one-dimensional cigar-shaped BEC
In this section, we apply the results of the previous sec-tion to generate analytical solutions of a dimensionlesseffective GP equation that describes the evolution of thewave function of a quasi-one-dimensional cigar-shapedBEC.
For simplicity, the above solution strategies, in the caseof a dimensionless effective GP equation, are applied whenthe strength kðtÞ of the magnetic trap is proportional to thetime-modulated dispersion PðtÞ. Let �ek2
0=2 be the coeffi-cient of proportionality so that kðtÞ ¼ �ek2
0PðtÞ=2. Then,Eqs. (5a) and (5b) become

where (25a) and (25b) are associated with �ek20=2 and
þek20=2, respectively. The term cðtÞ of form (25a) imposes
a time-periodic driving term in Eq. (4) with frequencyx�, which is nothing but the oscillation frequency. In thisviewpoint, the phase divergence at tn that satisfies the con-

By using ansatz (2a) and the polar form/ðX; TÞ ¼ AðX; TÞ exp iBðX; TÞ½ � of /ðX; TÞ where AðX; TÞ and
BðX; TÞ are defined by system (9a)–(9c), we can write downthe density of condensates in the GP equation when eachof the time-modulated dispersion PðtÞ, time-varying scat-tering length gðtÞ, and time-varying strength of the mag-netic trap kðtÞ are of the special form:

, and a1ðTÞ;a2ðTÞ;a3ðTÞ; h1ðTÞ, and h2ðTÞ are solutions of system (11). For sim-plicity, we shall use TðtÞ with Tð0Þ ¼ 0. In Eq. (26), we usea3 – 0 only when FðhÞ – 0 for every t 2 ½0; t0½\½0;D01½. Inthe case FðhÞ ¼ 0 for some t� 2 ½0; t0½\½0;D01½, we takea3ðTÞ � 0.
For applying the results of the previous section to adimensionless effective GP equation with special forms ofthe dispersion PðtÞ, scattering length gðtÞ, and strength ofthe magnetic trap kðtÞ, we focus ourselves on the solitarywave-like solutions and solutions of Eq. (1 ) that areexpressed in terms of the Jacobian elliptic function dn.
3.1. Bright and dark solitary wave-like solutions
In this subsection, we use Eqs. (16) and (17) to generatethe bright and dark solitary wave-like solutions of Eq. (1):

For the bright and dark solitary waves (27) and (28), thecoefficients of the two ODEs (10) must satisfy the condi-tions 2b ¼ a < 0;3c ¼ 2d > 0; e ¼ 0, and 2b ¼ a > 0;3c ¼ 2d < 0; ea� 4d2 ¼ 0, respectively. For simplicity, welimit ourselves in this subsection to the construction ofexamples of bright and dark solitary wave solutions witha3ðTÞ � 0. Therefore, a2ðTÞ cannot be a null function. Underthe conditions a3ðTÞ � 0 and a2ðTÞ– 0, one can easily ver-ify that only a1ðTÞ � 0 leads to solitary wave solutionswhen at least one of gðtÞ and vðtÞ is not a null function.
After analyzing system (12), we found that for a1ðTÞ � 0and a3ðTÞ � 0, and gðtÞ– 0, bright solitary waves (27) canexist only when the coefficient of the dipolar relaxationvðtÞ is proportional to the time-varying scattering lengthgðtÞ, with a proportionality coefficient 3b4= 2� b2

It should be noted that Eqs. (27) and (28) under condi-tions a1ðTÞ � 0 and a3ðTÞ � 0 become

3.1.1. Example of bright and dark solitary-wave propagationwith a solution of the Riccati equation chosen from Eq. (25a)
For the first example of bright and dark solitary-wavesolutions with a1ðTÞ � 0 and a3ðTÞ � 0, we follow Yuceet al. [29] and consider the time-varying scattering length
gðtÞ ¼ 4m�1p�h2eg 1þ D= B0 � BðtÞ½ �f g, where 4m�1p�h2eg isthe asymptotic value of the scattering length far from res-
onance, BðtÞ is the time-dependent externally applied mag-netic field, D is the width of resonance, and B0 is theresonant value of the magnetic field. With this form ofscattering length, we work with a dispersion of the form
PðtÞ ¼ eP 1� D= B1t � B0½ �f g, where either t 2 ½0;B0B�11 ½ or
t 2�B0B�11 ;þ1½. This form of time-modulated dispersion is
dictated by the dependence of the scattering length onthe magnetic field near the Feshbach resonance of coldBEC atoms [29]. Here, the magnetic field B1t is assumedto be linearly ramped in time near the resonance field B0.The parameter D stands for the width of the resonance.Such a dependence is found relevant on both theoretical[29] and experimental [30] grounds. The functional param-eter cðtÞ used in this example is given by Eq. (25a):

It appears that in the present example for the bright sol-itary wave-like solution, only the linear gain/loss coefficient

ecðtÞ in Eq. (1) is not submitted to any restriction. By usingthe periodic modulation of the gain/loss parameterecðtÞ ¼ ec0 1� sin x0t½ �, we plot in Fig. 1 the density wðx; tÞj j2
given by Eq. (27) for the set of values of parameter ec0
(ec0 ¼ 0:02; 0; 0:02) with x0 ¼ 1, and a1ðTÞ ¼ a3ðTÞ � 0.Plots (a) and (c) respectively correspond to the loss (nega-tive ec0) and feeding (positive ec0) of atoms in the conden-sate, while case (b) corresponds to the absence of loss andfeeding of atoms in the condensate. For the plots of this fig-ure, we used the parameters eP ¼ 1; D ¼ 1; B0 ¼ 1, B1 ¼ 1,ek0 ¼ 0:05; a ¼ �5; d ¼ 1=2; ‘ð0Þ ¼ 0:97; bð0Þ ¼ 0; h10 ¼2; b20 ¼ 1 ; h2ð0Þ ¼ 0; a2ð0Þ ¼ 5; b3ð0Þ ¼ 0; b4 ¼ 1. Thetime interval t 2 ½0;32:74½ which corresponds toT 2 ½0;þ1½ has been used. Fig. 1 shows that (i) the ampli-tude of the bright solitary wave decreases with the lossparameter and increases with the feeding parameter; (ii)in all the three cases (loss/feeding and without loss/feedingof atoms in the condensate), the bright solitary wave has thesame parabolic trajectory, oriented to the þx-axis; (iii) thewidth of the bright solitary wave varies during its propaga-tion: it first increases, reaches a maximal value, and thendecreases.
3.1.1.2. Dark solitary-wave solutions. To obtain an exampleof solution of system (12) for a dark solitary wave, wechoose to solve (21) in which we already have v0 ¼ 0,meaning that vðtÞ ¼ 0. We then obtain, under the condi-tion k0 þ b20P ¼ const: ¼ t0=h10 – 0 and a2

case of the previous example for the bright solitary wave,the linear gain/loss coefficient ecðtÞ in Eq.(1) is free fromany restriction.Using the periodic modulation of the gain/loss parameter ecðtÞ ¼ ec0 1� sin x0t½ � with the set of valuesof the parameter ec0 (ec0 ¼ �0:02;0, and 0:02, we depict in
Fig.2 the density wðx; tÞj j2 given by Eq.(28) for the dark sol-itary wave solution with x0 ¼ 1.Plots (a), (b), and (c) corre-sponding to the loss of atoms (with ec0 ¼ �0:02), to no lossnor feeding of atoms (with ec0 ¼ 0), and to the feeding ofatoms in the (with ec0 ¼ 0:02), respectively, in the conden-sate.To generate the different plots of this figure, the follow-
ing parameters have been used: eP ¼ 1; D ¼ 0:7;B0 ¼ 3:4; B1 ¼ 0:1; ek0 ¼ 0:05; a ¼ 5; d ¼ �1=2; ‘ð0Þ ¼ 0:98;bð0Þ ¼ 0; h10 ¼ 2; b20 ¼ 1; h2ð0Þ ¼ 0; a2ð0Þ ¼ 5; b3ð0Þ ¼ 0;b4 ¼ 1; t0 ¼ 0:05. Here, we have chosen t 2 ½0;32:74½which corresponds to T 2 ½0;þ1½. It is seen from the plotsof this figure that for all three cases (loss, feeding, and noloss nor feeding of atoms in the condensate) the dark soli-tary wave propagates with the same behavior: (i) the ampli-tude of the wave decreases with the loss parameter andincreases with the feeding parameter; (ii) the width of thebright solitary wave varies during its propagation: it first in-creases, reaches a maximal value, and then decreases.
3.1.2. Example of bright and dark solitary-wave propagationwith a1ðTÞ � a3ðTÞ � 0. As a second example for generatingbright and dark solitary-wave solutions witha1ðTÞ � a3ðTÞ � 0, we consider the case when the disper-sion PðtÞ is an exponential function of time, describing a
smooth change from 1 to 1=2; PðtÞ ¼ 12 1þ exp �ed2t
h i� �,
where ed is some arbitrary parameter. The correspondingcðtÞ to be used is given by Eq. (25b) (this means that Pand k are of the same sign). For both the bright and dark
solitary-wave solutions, we use gðtÞ ¼ aP b24�2ð Þh2

better understanding of the importance of the functionalparameter b1ðTÞ, we used different initial conditions b1ð0Þto generate the different plots. In these two figures, plot(a) shows the spatiotemporal evolution of the solitarywave-like solutions, plot (b) shows the curvea2

d ¼ 0:05, and a ¼ 0:1 and d ¼ �0:05, respectively. The plotsof the top panel show a soliton propagating with a decreas-ing amplitude (this is confirmed by plot (b)) and with a com-pressing width, as it is easily seen from plot (c). From theplots of the bottom panel, we easily see a soliton that firstpropagate with an increasing amplitude, and then with adecreasing amplitude (this is clearly seen from plots (c)).This change in soliton amplitude is confirmed by plot (c)showing the curve of the amplitude proportionality. It is alsoeasily seen from plots (a) and (c) that the soliton propagateswith a compressed width.

where b0;V0, and q0 are three real constants to be chosencarefully to avoid the singular points of the tan function.For simplicity, here we consider only the case where thetime-varying strength of the magnetic trap kðtÞ is propor-tional to PðtÞ with coefficient of proportionality ek2

Fig. 5 shows the dynamics of thedensity wðx; tÞj j2 corresponding to the bright solitary wave(top panels with b0 ¼ 1=5;V0 ¼ 1=2;q0 ¼ 1=2;R0 ¼ 1, andG1 ¼ 0:05) and the dark solitary wave (bottom panels withb0 ¼ 1;V0 ¼ 1=2;q0 ¼ 1=2;R0 ¼ 1, and G1 ¼ 0:08) given byEqs. (27) and (28), respectively.
The top panels of Fig. 5, which shows the densitywðx; tÞj j2 for the bright solitary wave-solution (27) is gener-
ated with different chirp functional parameter b1ðtÞ, real-ized with the initial values b1ð0Þ ¼ �0:05;0;0:05,corresponding to the labels (a), (b), (c), respectively. Theseplots show that the functional parameter b1ðtÞ has animportant effect on modulating the amplitude of the solu-tion wðx; tÞ. Because of the periodicity of the time-modu-lated dispersion PðtÞ;wðx; tÞ is an explicit breathingsolitary wave solution. The breathing behavior is clearerif we take b1ðtÞ ¼ 0 (see plot (b)), which corresponds, asone may see from Eq. (32a), to the absence of feedingand loss of atoms in the condensate [ecðtÞ � 0]. It is seenfrom the plots of the top panels that the amplitude of thedensity wðx; tÞj j2 is oscillating along the t-axis and showsa strongly breathing behavior when b1ð0Þ changes sign[see plot (a) with b1ð0Þ ¼ �0:05 and plot (c) with b1ð0Þ ¼0:05]. The other parameters used in these plots area ¼ �1=15; d ¼ 1; ek0 ¼ 0:2; cð0Þ ¼ 0:01; ‘ð0Þ ¼ 1; gð0Þ¼ �0:1; bð0Þ ¼ �0:1; að0Þ ¼ �0:1; a2ð0Þ ¼ 0:4; b1ð0Þ ¼0:015; b2ð0Þ ¼ 0:1, b3ð0Þ ¼ 0:1; h1ð0Þ ¼ 0:1; h2ð0Þ ¼ 0:1;kðtÞ � �0:005.
The bottom panels of Fig. 5 show the effect of the gravi-tational field on the propagation of the dark solitary wave.The plots of these panels show the trajectory of the dark sol-itary wave. To realize the plots of these panels, we consid-ered different values of the force constant k ¼ �0:05 [plot(d)], k ¼ 0 [plot (e)], and k ¼ 0:05 [plot (f)]. In the presenceof the gravitational field [plots (d) and (f)], the dark solitarywave has an oscillating trajectory in time with an accelera-tion related to the gravity, like waves propagating on thesurface of the condensate. It is clearly seen from plots (d)and (f) that the linear potential may shift the oscillationsof the soliton trajectory either to the �x direction (plot (d)with negative k) or to theþx direction (plot (f) with positivek). Plot (e), realized with k ¼ 0 shows that the dark solitarywave cannot propagate along an oscillating trajectory in theabsence of the gravitational field. The other parametersused to generate these plots are a ¼ 1=15; d ¼ �1=2;ek0 ¼ 0:2; cð0Þ ¼ 0:01; ‘ð0Þ ¼ 1; gð0Þ ¼ �0:1; bð0Þ ¼ �0:1;að0Þ ¼ �0:1; a2ð0Þ ¼ 0:8; b1ð0Þ ¼ 0:0051; b2ð0Þ ¼ 0:1;b3ð0Þ ¼ 0:1; h1ð0Þ ¼ 0:2, and h2ð0Þ ¼ 0:1.

One can mainly distinguish two cases: the case ofa direct use of Eq. (18) with its Jacobian elliptic dn andnd functions FðhÞ, and the case of the use of the superposi-tion solution (24). We restrict ourselves to the first case.

cðtÞ ¼ k0=½1þm sin xtð Þ�, where k0 is an arbitrary realconstant. As one can clearly see from plots (b) and (e)obtained with k ¼ 0, the wave propagation in the absenceof gravitational field presents a kind of symmetry; thissymmetry is shifted either in the þx direction [plot (a, d)with negative k] or in the �x direction [plot (c, f) with posi-tive k].
4. Conclusion
In this paper, we presented a strategy for finding exactsolitonic and periodic solutions of a generalized nonlinearSchrödinger Eq. (1) with distributed coefficients, lineargain/loss, and nonlinear gain/absorption. Using anappropriate ansatz, we first reduced the equation underconsideration into a perturbed NLS equation involving onlytime-dependent coefficients. Then, we combined theF-expansion method with the homogeneous balance prin-ciple to solve analytically the perturbed NLS equation. Wewould like to point out that our analytical results are readyfor the applications (all Eqs. (16)–(18) and (24) definephysical solutions). The results were applied to find exactbright and dark solitary-wave and periodic solutions fordimensionless effective GP equations that describe theevolution of the wave functions of quasi-one-dimensionalcigar-shaped BECs. We found that our results are readilyapplicable to manipulate solitary pulses’ motion. Becauseof the general form of Eq. (1), our analytical findingssuggest potential applications in areas such as optical fibercompressors, BECs, optical fiber amplifiers, nonlinear
