Introduction Algebro-geometric solution (also called quasi-periodic solution or finite gap solution), as an important feature of integrable system, was originally researched on the KdV equation based on the inverse spectral theory [1, 3, 4, 5], subsequently, algebro-geometric method developed in literatures such as [1, 3, 4, 5, 19, 20, 25], in the late 1970s. As a degenerated case of the algebro-geometric solution, the elliptic function solution and multi-soliton solution may be worked out [1, 22, 25]. The inverse spectral theory has been extended to the whole (1+1) dimensional integrable hierarchy by Gesztesy and Holden, such as the AKNS ∗ Corresponding author Email address: xiatc@shu.edu.cn (Tiecheng Xia) Received 2015-06-26 Q.

In recent years, Fan and his co-authors [15, 16, 17, 18, 29, 30, 31] investigated the Ruijsenaars-Toda Hierarchy, the Degasperis-Procesi hierarchy, derivative Burgers hierarchy, etc., and obtained their algebro-geometric solutions. As is well-known, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation is iut + uxx + 2|u|2 u = 0, (1.1) it arises from a wide variety of fields, such as plasma physics, the theory of deep water waves, and nonlinear fibre optics, etc. The discovery of the integrability of the equation by the inverse scattering transformation approach has promoted the understanding of the generality of this method to a large extent. So far, there has been much research on the Eq. (1.1). such as its soliton solutions, conserved quantities, Darboux transformation, Bäcklund transformation, and others have been studied in [2, 6, 14, 21, 24]. In this paper, we are going to investigate the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger (GNLS) hierarchy [7], and the first non-trival member is GNLS equation (t1 = t) ipt = 21 pxx − p2 q + 2iγ(pq)x p + 2γ 2 p3 q 2 , (1.2) iqt = − 12 qxx + pq 2 + 2iγ(pq)x q − 2γ 2 p2 q 3 , where γ is a constant. Geng discussed the soliton solutions of the equation (1.2) by Darboux transformation [8], Yan studied its N -Hamiltonian structures and finite-dimensional involutive systems and integrable systems [27], Qin investigated algebro-geometric solutions for equation (1.2) by variable separation method [26]. However, to the best of authors knowledge, the algebro-geometric solutions for the whole GNLS hierarchy are still not presented yet. The main aim of the present paper is to uniformly construct algebro-geometric solutions of the entire GNLS hierarchy. The present paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, based on the Lenard gradient and the stationary zero-curvature equation, we obtain the GNLS hierarchy associated with a 2 × 2 matrix spectral problem. In Section 3, we introduce a Lax matrix and an algebraic curve KN with genus N , by which we discuss nonlinear recursion relations of the corresponding homogeneous coefficients, and a direct relation between the elliptic variables and the potentials is established. Then the hierarchy is decomposed into solvable ordinary differential equations. In Section 4, all the flows of the GNLS hierarchy are straighten out under the Abel-Jacobi coordinates. The meromorphic function φ and the Baker-Akhiezer function ψ are introduced on the hyperelliptic curve KN . Then we study the meromorphic function φ such that φ satisfies nonlinear differential equations, and discuss the properties of the Baker-Akhiezer function ψ. We present the explicit theta function representations for the meromorphic function and the Baker-Akhiezer function. In particular, we give the algebro-geometric solutions for the whole GNLS hierarchy. 2. The GNLS hierarchy In this section, we shall derive the hierarchy associated with the following spectral problem [7], iλ − iγpq p ψ1 ψx = U ψ, U = , ψ= , q −iλ + iγpq ψ2 (2.1) where p and q are two potentials, γ is a constant,λ is a constant spectral parameter. We now introduce the Lenard gradient sequence {Sj }, j = 0, 1, 2 . . . to derive the hierarchy KSj−1 = JSj , j = 1, 2, 3, . . . , Sj |(p,q)=0 = 0, S−1 = (−1, 0, 0)T , JS−1 = 0, where Sj = (aj , bj , cj ) and operators (∂ = ∂/∂x) 2p ∂ + 2iγpq 0 0 2i 0 0 ∂ − 2iγpq , J = 0 0 −2i . K = −2q ∂ q −p ∂ q −p After direct calculation from the recursion relation (2.2) we get (2.2) (2.3) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci.

(2.1) and Eq. (2.6) is Utr − Vx + [U, V (r) ] = 0, which is equivalent to ptr = (2 − 4iγp∂ −1 q)br+1 + 4iγp∂ −1 pcr+1 , (2.8) qtr = 4iγq∂ −1 qbr+1 + (−2 − 4iγq∂ −1 p)cr+1 . The first non-trival member is GNLS equation pt1 = − 2i pxx + ip2 q + 2γ(pq)x p − 2iγ 2 p3 q 2 , (2.9) qt1 = 2i qxx − ipq 2 + 2γ(pq)x q + 2iγ 2 p2 q 3 . which is just Eq. (1.2) when t1 = t. 3. Evolution of elliptic variables Assume that (2.1) and (2.6) have two basic solutions χ = (χ1 , χ2 )T and Φ = (Φ1 , Φ2 )T . Then we define a matrix W of three functions g, f, h by 1 g f 0 −1 T T , (3.1) W = (Φχ + χΦ )σ = , σ= h −g 1 0 2 which satisfies the Lax equations Wx = [U, W ], Wtr = [V (r) , W ]. (3.2) Therefore, ∂x detW = 0, ∂tr detW = 0. Then Eq. (3.1) and Eq. (3.2) can be written as fx = 2i(λ − γpq)f − 2pg, gx = ph − qf, hx = 2qg − 2i(λ − γpq)h, and ftr gtr htr (r) (3.3) (r) = 2f V11 − 2gV12 , (r) (r) = hV12 − f V21 , (r) (r) = 2gV21 − 2hV11 . Supposing that the functions g, f, h are finite-order polynomials in λ: (3.4) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci.

(3.5) j=0 Substituting (3.5) into (3.3) yields: f−1 = 0, h−1 = 0, g−1 = −1, fj,x = −2pgj − 2iγpqfj + 2ifj+1 , hj,x = 2qgj + 2iγpqhj + 2hj+1 , −1 ≤ j ≤ N − 1, gj,x = phj − qfj , −1 ≤ j ≤ N, fN,x = 0, gN,x = 0, (3.6) which is equivalent to KQj−1 = JQj (j = 0, 1, 2, . . . , N ), JQ−1 = 0, KQN = 0, Qj = (gj , fj , hj )T . (3.7) It is easy to see that JQ−1 = 0 has the general solution Q−1 = α0 S−1 , (3.8) where α0 is constant of integration. Without loss of generality, let α0 = 1, and acting with the operator (J −1 K)k+1 upon (3.8), we obtain from (2.4) and (3.7) that: Qk = k+1 X αj Sk−j , k = 0, 1, . . . , N, (3.9) j=0 where α0 , α1 , . . . , αN +1 are integral constants. The first few members in (3.9) are −α1 Q0 = ip , iq − 21 pq − α2 Q1 = 12 px + iγp2 q + ipα1 , − 12 qx + iγpq 2 + iqα1 (3.10) (3.11) where {αl }l∈N denote integration constants. For subsequent use we introduce the homogeneous coefficients ĝk , fˆk and ĥk defined by the vanishing of the integration constants {αl } for l = 1, 2, . . . , k(k ∈ N0 ), ĝ−1 = g−1 = −1, ĥ−1 = h−1 = 0, fˆ−1 = f−1 = 0, ĝk = gk |αl =0,l=1,...,k , fˆk = fk |αl =0,l=1,...,k , ĥk = hk |αl =0,l=1,...,k . (3.12) Defining α0 = 1, then we obtain gk = k X αk−j ĝj , fk = j=−1 k X αk−j fˆj , hk = k X αk−j ĥj . (3.13) j=0 j=0 Next, we consider the function detW , which is a (2N+2) th-order polynomial in λ with constant coefficients of the x-flow and tr -flow, we have 2 − detW = g + f h = 2N +1 Y (λ − λj ) = R(λ). (3.14) j=0 We introduce the hyperelliptic curve KN of arithmetic genus N defined by 2 KN : y = 2N +1 Y (λ − λj ) = R(λ). j=0 (3.15) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 9 (2016), 661–676 665 The curve KN can be compactified by joining two points at infinity P∞± , where P∞+ 6= P∞− . And the compactification is also denoted by KN for notational simplicity. Here we assume that the zeros λj of R(λ) in (3.15) are mutually distinct, which means λj 6= λk , when j 6= k, 0 ≤ j, k ≤ 2N + 1. Then the hyper elliptic curve KN becomes nonsingular. We can determine the integration constants αk (0 ≤ k ≤ N ) by the constants λ0 , . . . , λ2N +1 from the following theorem. We shall give some elementary results before giving the theorem. −1 Let {λj }j=0,1,...,2N +1 ⊂ C for some N ∈ N0 and ξ ∈ C, |ξ| < min{λ−1 0 , . . . , λ2N +1 }, and abbreviate λ = (λ0 , . . . , λ2N +1 ), then 2N +1 ∞ Y X 1 (1 − λj ξ)− 2 = ĉk (λ)ξ k , (3.16) j=0 k=0 where ĉ0 (λ) = 1, ĉ1 (λ) = P ĉk (λ) = 2N P+1 1 2 λj , ĉ2 (λ) = 1 4 P λj λk + 3 8 2N P+1 j=0 k=0 j<k j2N +1 (2j0 )!···(2j2N +1 )! j0 λ · · · λ2N +1 . 22k (j0 !)2 ···(j2N +1 !)2 0 λ2j , (3.17) j0 ,...,j2N +1 =0 j0 +...+j2N +1 =k Similarly, we have 2N +1 Y 1 (1 − λj ξ) 2 = j=0 where c0 (λ) = 1, c1 (λ) = − 21 ∞ X ck (λ)ξ k , 2N P+1 λj , c2 (λ) = k=0 1 4 P λj λk − j<k j P ck (λ) = j0 ,...,j2N +1 =0 j0 +...+j2N +1 =k (3.18) k=0 1 8 2N P+1 j=0 (3.19) j 2N +1 (2j0 )!···(2j2N +1 )!λ00 ···λ2N +1 . 2k 2 2 2 (j0 !) ···(j2N +1 !)

(3.21) αl = cl (λ), l = 0, . . . , N. (3.22) j=0 Theorem 3.1. Proof. It will be convenient to introduce the notion of a degree, deg(.), to effectively distinguish between homogeneous and nonhomogeneous quantities. One defines deg(p) = 1, deg(q) = 1, deg(∂x ) = 2, (3.23) deg(fˆk ) = 2k + 1, deg(ĥk ) = 2k + 1, deg(ĝk ) = 2k, k ∈ N0 , (3.24) implying 1 by using the linear recursion relation (3.6) and induction on k. Next, dividing f (λ), h(λ), g(λ) by R(λ) 2 near infinity respectively, one obtains f (λ) 1 R(λ) 2 h(λ) 1 R(λ) 2 = ∞ P = j=0 ∞ P j=0 ĉj (λ)λ−N −1−j ĉj (λ)λ−N −1−j NP +1 j=0 NP +1 j=0 fj−1 λN +1−j = hj−1 λN +1−j = ∞ P f˘l−1 λ−l , l=0 ∞ P l=0 (3.25) h̆l−1 λ−l , Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci.

Noticing (3.3) and (3.24), we get f˘k,x = −2pğk − 2iγpq f˘k + 2if˘k+1 , h̆k,x = 2qğk + 2iγpq h̆k + 2h̆k+1 , ğk,x = ph̆k − q f˘k , k = −1, 0, 1, . . . . (3.26) Here we have chosen that f˘−1 = fˆ−1 = 0, ğ−1 = ĝ−1 = −1, h̆−1 = ĥ−1 = 0, f˘0 = fˆ0 = ip, ğ0 = ĝ0 = 0 and h̆0 = ĥ0 = iq. Moreover, one can prove inductively that deg(f˘k ) = 2k + 1, deg(h̆k ) = 2k + 1, deg(ğk ) = 2k. (3.27) Hence, ğl , f˘l and h̆l are equal to ĝl , fˆl and ĥl , respectively, for all l ∈ N0 . Thus we proved f (λ) 1 R(λ) 2 h(λ) 1 = ∞ ∞ P P fˆl−1 λ−l = fˆl λ−l−1 , = l=0 ∞ P = l=0 ∞ P R(λ) 2 g(λ) 1 R(λ) 2 ĥl−1 λ−l = l=0 ∞ P ĥl λ−l−1 , (3.28) l=0 ĝl−1 λ−l . l=0 Using (3.20), we compute that k P m=0 k−l k m k P P P P ck−m (λ)fˆm = ck−m ĉk−s−l (λ)ĉs (λ) = fk , ck−m (λ) fl ĉm−l (λ) = fl m=0 l=0 (3.29) s=0 l=0 where k = 0, . . . , N, which together with (3.13) implies (3.21) holds. Hence Theorem 3.1 is proved. If we write f and h as finite products which take the following form f = ip N Q h = iq j=1 N Q (λ − µj ), (3.30) (λ − νj ), j=1 N where the roots {µj }N j=1 and {νj }j=1 are called elliptic variables, from which we obtain g|λ=µk = p p R(µk ), g|λ=νk = R(νk ). (3.31) Noticing (3.3), (3.29) and (3.30), we get fx |λ=µk = −2pg|λ=µk = −ipµk,x N Y (µk − µj ), (3.32) j=1 j6=k hx |λ=νk = 2qg|λ=νk = −iqνk,x N Y j=1 j6=k which means (νk − νj ), (3.33) Q. Li, T. C.

Algebro-geometric solutions In the section, we shall construct algebro-geometric solutions for the whole GNLS hierarchy (2.8). First we will recall the hyper-elliptic curve KN of arithmetic genus N defined by KN : y 2 − R(λ) = 0. (4.1) N We can lift the roots {µj }N j=1 and {νj }j=1 to KN by introducing µ bj (x, tr ) = (µj (x, tr ), −G(µj (x, tr ), x, tr )), (4.2) νbj (x, tr ) = (νj (x, tr ), G(νj (x, tr ), x, tr )), (4.3) where j = 1, · · · , N, (x, tr ) ∈ R2 . Now we introduce the Baker-Akhiezer function ψ = (ψ1 , ψ2 )T by ψx (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = U (λ, x, tr )ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ), ψtr (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = V (r) (λ, x, tr )ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ), W (λ, x, tr )ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = y(P )ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ), ψ(P, x0 , x0 , t0,r , t0,r ) = 1, (x, tr ) ∈ R2 . (4.4) Closely associated with ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) is the meromorphic function φ(P, x, tr ) on KN , defined by φ(P, x, tr ) = ψ1 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) , P ∈ KN , ψ2 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) (4.5) y−g h = , f y+g (4.6) which implies from (4.4) that φ(P, x, tr ) = where P = (λ, y) ∈ KN \ {P∞+ , P∞− }, (x, tr ) ∈ R2 . Hence the divisor of φ(·, x, tr ) reads [10] φ(·, x, tr ) = DP∞+ ,bν (x,tr ) − DP∞− ,bµ(x,tr ) , where Dµb(x,tr ) = N X µ̂j (x, tr ), Dbν (x,tr ) = j=1 N X ν̂j (x, tr ). j=1 The holomorphic sheet exchange map ∗ is defined by ∗ : KN → KN , P = (λ, y) → P ∗ = (λ, −y), P, P ∗ ∈ KN . (4.7) (4.8) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 9 (2016), 661–676 668 With these preparations, we can compute that the meromorphic function φ satisfies the Riccati-type nonlinear differential equations (r) (r) (r) φx − 2iγpqφ + pφ2 = q − 2iλφ, φtr = V21 − 2V11 φ − V12 φ2 , (4.9) φ(P )φ(P ∗ ) = − fh , φ(P ) + φ(P ∗ ) = −2 hg , φ(P ) − φ(P ∗ ) = 2 fy . (4.10) as well as After direct calculation, we can derive the properties of ψ(P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) R x ψ1 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = exp x0 (iλ − iγp (x0 , tr ) q (x0 , tr ) + p (x0 , tr ) φ (P, x0 , tr )) dx0 R tr (r) (r) V11 (λ, x0 , s) + V12 (λ, x0 , s)φ(P, x0 , s) ds + t0,r h i1 R x y(P )p(x0 ,tr ) 0 R tr y(P )V12(r) (λ,x0 ,s) 2 f (λ,x,tr ) = f (λ,x0 ,t0,r ) · exp x0 f (λ,x0 ,tr ) dx + t0,r ds , f (λ,x0 ,s) (4.11) and ψ1 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r )ψ1 (P ∗ , x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = f (λ,x,tr ) f (λ,x0 ,t0,r ) , h(λ,x,tr ) , ψ2 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r )ψ2 (P ∗ , x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = − f (λ,x 0 ,t0,r ) (4.12) (4.13) g(λ, x, tr ) , (4.14) f (λ, x0 , t0,r ) y .

For the present, we will choose our basis as the following set λl−1 dλ ω el = p , 1 ≤ l ≤ N, R(λ) (4.16) which are N linearly independent homomorphic differentials on Γ. By using the cycles a and b, the period matrices A and B can be constructed from Z Z Aij = ω ei , Bij = ω ei . aj bj It is possible to show that matrices A and B are invertible [13, 23]. Now we define the matrices C and τ by C = A−1 , τ = A−1 B. The matrix τ can be shown to be symmetric (τij = τji ) and it has positive definite imaginary part (Imτ > 0). If we normalize ω el into the new basis ωj , ωj = N X Cjl ω el , 1 ≤ j ≤ N, l=1 then we have Z ωj = ai N X l=1 Z Cjl ai Z ω el = δji , ωj = τji . bi (4.17) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci.

Without loss of generality, we choose the branch point P0 = (λj0 , 0), j0 ∈ {0, . . . , 2N + 1}, as a convenient base point, and λ(P0 ) is its local coordinate. From (3.33), (3.34), (4.18) and (4.19) we obtain the following two lemmas. Lemma 4.1. (Straightening Out of the x-Flow). (1) ∂x ρj (2) = −2iCjN , ∂x ρj = 2iCjN , 1 ≤ j ≤ N, (4.20) where (i) (i) C N = (C1N , . . . , CN N ), ρ(i) = (ρ1 , . . . , ρN ), i = 1, 2. Proof.

The Riemann theta function is defined as [10, 13, 23] θ(P, D) = θ(Λ − A(P ) + A(D), (4.36) where P ∈ KN , D ∈ Div(Γ), and Λ = (Λ1 , . . . , ΛN ) is defined by Z Z P N X 1 Λj = (1 + τjj ) − ωi ωj , j = 1, . . . , N. 2 ai Q0 i=1,i6=j Then according to (4.35) and the definition of Riemann theta function in (4.36), we have θ(P, Dµb(x,tr ) ) = θ(Λ − A(P ) + ρ(1) ), (4.37) θ(P, Dbν (x,tr ) ) = θ(Λ − A(P ) + ρ(2) ). (4.38) Lemma 4.4. Suppose that p(x, tr ), q(x, tr ) ∈ C∞ (R2 ) satisfy the hierarchy of nonlinear Eq. (2.8). Let λj ∈ C\{0}, (0 ≤ j ≤ 2N + 1), and P = (λ, y) ∈ KN \(P∞+ , P∞− ).

Lemma 4.5. Under the same supposition in Lemma 4.4, in the special case of (3.9) when α0 = 1, αk = 0, 1 ≤ k ≤ N, we have that exp[iζ −1 (x − x0 ) + iζ −r−1 (tr − t0,r ) + O(1)] as P → P∞+ , ψ1 (P, x, x0 , tr , t0,r ) = exp[−iζ −1 (x − x0 ) − iζ −r−1 (tr − t0,r ) + O(1)] as P → P∞− . ζ→0 Proof. In the special case of (3.9) when α0 = 1, αk = 0, 1 ≤ k ≤ N, we derive that fj = bj , hj = cj , −1 ≤ j. Introducing the local coordinate ζ = λ−1 near P∞± , we obtain from (4.39) that Rx 0 0 0 0 0 exp( x0 (iλ −Riγp(P, x , tr )q(P, x , tr ) + p(x , tr )φ(P, x , tr ))dx x exp[ x0 (iζ −1 − iγp(P, x0 , tr )q(P, x0 , tr ) +p(P,R x0 , tr )(− iq2 ζ + O(ζ 2 ))dx0 ] as P → P∞+ = x exp[ x0 (iζ −1 − iγp(P, x0 , tr )q(P, x0 , tr ) ζ→0 (4.44) +p(P, x0 , tr )(− 2i0 ζ −1 + px + 2iγq + O(ζ)))dx0 ] asP → P∞− 2 p(P,x ,tr ) p ( exp(iζ −1 (x − x0 ) + O(1)) as P → P∞+ , = p(x,tr ) −1 (x − x ) + O(1)) as P → P ζ→0 0 ∞− . p(x0 ,tr ) exp(−iζ Then in the special case of (3.9), combining (2.8), (3.4), (3.29), (4.6), (4.40) and (4.41) yields R tr (r) (r) (λ, x , s) + V12 (λ, x0 , s)φ(P, x0 , s))ds) t0,r (V11 hR 0 i (r) tr y 1 ftr (λ,x0 ,s) = exp t0,r V (λ, x , s) + ds 0 2 f (λ,x0 ,s) f (λ,x0 ,s) 12 P r bj (ζ −1 ,x0 ,s)ζ j−r R tr −1 ±i j=0 = exp + ftr (ζ−1 ,x0 ,s) + O(ζ) ds ∞ P t0,r ζ→0 fˆl (ζ −1 ,x0 ,s)ζ l+1 2f (ζ ,x0 ,s) l=0 r P + bj (ζ −1 ,x0 ,s)ζ j R tr j=0 = exp t0,r ±iζ −r−1 P + ∞ fˆl (ζ −1 ,x0 ,s)ζ l ζ→0 ptr (x0 ,s) 2p(x0 ,s) + O(ζ) ds j=0 = exp ζ→0 −1 ,x hR (ζ ±iζ −r−1 (1 − ζ r+1 br+1 ˆ −1 hR ±iζ −r−1 tr t0,r tr t0,r 0 ,s) )+ i + O(ζ) ds i + O(ζ) ds ptr (x0 ,s) 2p(x0 ,s) f0 (ζ ,x0 ,s) br+1 (ζ −1 ,x0 ,s) tr (x0 ,s) i ˆ −1 ) + p2p(x 0 ,s) f0 (ζ ,x0 ,s) = exp ∓ exp(iζ −r−1 (tr − t0,r ) + O(1)) as P → P∞+ , = exp(−iζ −r−1 (tr − t0,r ) + O(1)) as P → P∞− . ζ→0 ζ→0 (4.45) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 9 (2016), 661–676 673 Hence, combining with the definition of ψ1 in (4.11), we can arrive at (4.38). Next, we shall derive the (3) representation of φ, ψ, p and q in terms of the Riemann theta function. Let ωP∞+ ,P∞− be the normal differential of the third kind holomorphic on KN \{P∞+ , P∞− } with simple poles at P∞+ and P∞− and residues 1 and -1, respectively, which can be expressed as (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− = N 1Y (λ − βj )dλ, y (4.46) j=1 where βj ∈ C, j = 1, . . . , N are constants that are determined by Z (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− = 0, j = 1, . . . , N. aj (3) If the local coordinate near P∞± is given by ζ = λ−1 , then we have the asymptotic expansions of ωP∞+ ,P∞− near P∞± : 2N N Q+1 Q 1 (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− = ∓ζ N +1 (1 − ζβj )dζ (1 − ζλj )− 2 · (−ζ −N −2 ) ζ→0 ±ζ −1 = ζ→0 j=0 2N Q+1 j=1 (1 − ζλj ) − 12 · N Q (1 − ζβj )dζ (4.47) j=1 j=0 ±(ζ −1 + O(1)) as P → P∞± . = ζ→0 Therefore, Z P (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− = ±(lnζ − lnω0 + O(ζ)) as P → P∞± ζ→0 P0 (4.48) (2) for some constant ω0 ∈ C. Next, let ωP∞±,r , r ∈ N0 , be normalized differentials of the second kind with a unique pole at P∞± and principal part near P∞± is −ζ −2−r dζ, and satisfying Z (2) ωP∞±,r = 0, j = 1, . . . , N. (4.49) (2) (2) Then we can define Ω0 and Ωr−1 by (2) (2) (2) Ω0 = ωP∞+,0 − ωP∞−,0 , (2) Ωr−1 = r−1 X (4.50) (2) (2) αr−1−s (s + 1)(ωP∞+,s − ωP∞−,s ), (4.51) s=0 where αr−1−s are the integral constants in (3.9). Therefore, Z Z (2) (2) Ω0 = 0, Ωr−1 = 0, j = 1, . . . , N. aj Z P P0 Z P P0 (2) Ω0 (2) Ωr−1 = ±(ζ −1 + e0,0 + e0,1 ζ + O(ζ 2 )) as P → P∞± , ζ→0 = ± ζ→0 (4.52) aj r−1 X (4.53) ! αr−1−s ζ −1−s + er−1,0 + O(ζ) as P → P∞± (4.54) s=0 for some constants e0,0 , e0,1 , er−1,0 ∈ C. If Dµb(x,tr ) and Dbν (x,tr ) in (4.7) are assumed to be nonspecial [13], then according to the Riemanns vanishing theorem [10, 13], the definition and asymptotic properties of the meromorphic function φ(P, x, tr ), φ has the expressions of the following type: Z P θ(P, Dµb(x,tr ) ) (3) φ(P, x, tr ) = C(x, tr ) exp ωP∞+ ,P∞− , (4.55) θ(P, Dbν (x,tr ) ) P0 where C(x, tr ) is independent of P ∈ KN . Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 9 (2016), 661–676 674 Theorem 4.6. Let P = (λ, y) ∈ KN \(P∞+ , P∞− ), (x, tr ), (x0 , t0,r ) ∈ M where M ⊆ R2 is open and connected. Suppose p, q ∈ C ∞ (M ) satisfy the hierarchy of nonlinear equations (2.8), and assume that λj , 0 ≤ j ≤ 2N + 1 in (3.15) satisfy λj ∈ C\{0} and λj 6= λk as j 6= k. Moreover, suppose that Dµb(x,tr ) , or equivalently, Dbν (x,tr ) is nonspecial for (x, tr ). Then φ, ψ1 , ψ2 admit the following representation: φ(P, x, tr ) = C0 θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x,tr ) )θ(P, Dbν (x,tr ) ) θ(P∞− , Dbν (x,tr ) )θ(P, Dµb(x,tr ) ) ψ1 (P, x, tr , x0 , tr,0 ) = Z P · exp P0 θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) )θ(P, Dµb(x,tr ) ) (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− + 2ie0,0 x + 2ier−1,0 tr , Z · exp i θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x,tr ) )θ(P, Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) Z P (2) , · exp i iΩr−1 − er−1,0 )(tr − t0,r P P0 (2) Ω0 (4.56) − e0,0 )(x − x0 (4.57) P0 θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) )θ(P, Dbν (x,tr ) ) ψ2 (P, x, tr , x0 , t0,r ) = C0 θ(P∞− , Dbν (x,tr ) )θ(P, Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) Z P Z (2) · exp i Ω0 + e0,0 (x − x0 ) + i P0 Z P · exp P0 (4.58) P P0 (3) ωP∞+ ,P∞− (2) Ωr−1 + er−1,0 (tr − t0,r ) + 2ie0,0 x0 + 2ier−1,0 t0,r , where C0 = θ(P∞− , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) −2i exp(−2ie0,0 x0 − 2ier−1,0 t0,r ), q(x0 , t0,r )ω0 θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) )) p(x, tr ) = p(x0 , t0,r ) q(x, tr ) = q(x0 , t0,r ) θ(P∞+ , Dµb (x0 , t0,r ))θ(P∞− , Dµb(x,tr ) ) θ(P∞− , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) )θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x,tr ) ) exp(−2ie0,0 x0 − 2ier−1,0 t0,r ), θ(P∞− , Dbν (x0 , t0,r ))θ(P∞+ , Dbν (x,tr ) ) exp(2ie0,0 x0 + 2ier−1,0 t0,r ), θ(P∞+ , Dbν (x0 ,t0,r ) )θ(P∞− , Dbν (x,tr ) ) p(x0 , t0,r )q(x0 , t0,r ) = 4 θ(P∞+ , Dbν (x0 , t0,r ))θ(P∞− , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) · . ω02 θ(P∞− , Dbν (x0 ,t0,r ) )θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) (4.59) (4.60) (4.61) (4.62) Proof. First, we shall consider the theta function representation (4.57) for ψ1 . Without loss of generality, in the following, we only consider the special case of (3.9) for α0 = 1, αk = 0, 1 ≤ k ≤ N + 1. We temporarily f for appropriate M f ⊆ M and define the right-hand assume that µj (x, tr ) 6= µj 0 (x, tr ) as j 6= j 0 and (x, tr ) ∈ M side of (4.57) to be ψe1 . In order to prove ψ1 = ψe1 , we investigate the local zeros and poles of ψ1 defined by (4.11). From (3.33), (3.34), (4.2), and (4.6), we have v(x0 , tr )φ(P, x0 , tr ) (r) = P →b µj (x0 ,tr ) V12 (λ, x0 , s)φ(P, x0 , s) = −∂x0 ln(λ − µj (x0 , tr )) + O(1), P →b µj (x0 ,s) −∂s ln(λ − µj (x0 , s)) + O(1), P →µ bj (x, tr ) 6= µ bj (x0 , tr,0 ), (λ − µj (x, tr ))O(1), O(1), P →µ bj (x, tr ) = µ bj (x0 , tr,0 ), ψ1 (P, x, tr , x0 , tr,0 ) = (λ − µj (x0 , tr,0 ))−1 O(1), P → µ bj (x0 , tr,0 ) 6= µ bj (x, tr ), (4.63) (4.64) (4.65) Q. Li, T. C. Xia, C. Yue, J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 9 (2016), 661–676 675 f, and O(1) 6= 0. Hence ψ1 and ψe1 share the same singularities with P = (λ, y) ∈ KN , (x, tr ), (x0 , t0,r ) ∈ M and zeros on KN \(P∞+ , P∞− ), which are all simple by hypothesis (4.63). Next, we study the behavior of ψ1 and ψe1 near P∞± , taking into account (4.38), (4.53), (4.54) and (4.57), then shows that ψ1 and ψe1 have identical exponential behavior up to order O(1) near P∞± . Thus, ψ1 and ψe1 share the same singularities and zeros. Then the Riemann-Roch-type uniqueness proves that ψ1 = ψe1 . Hence (4.57) holds subject to (4.63). Inserting (4.48) into (4.55) and comparing with (4.39) one finds q = C(x, tr ) θ(P∞− , Dµb(x,tr ) ) 2i θ(P∞+ , Dbν (x,tr ) ) 2i ,p = − . ω0 θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x,tr ) ) C(x, tr )ω0 θ(P∞− , Dbν (x,tr ) ) (4.66) Re-examining the asymptotic behavior of ψ1 near P∞− yields ψ1 (P, x, tr , x0 , t0,r ) = = p(x,tr ) −1 (x − x ) + O(1)) · p(x0 ,tr ) exp(−iζ −1−r (t 0 r p(x0 ,tr ) exp(−iζ p(x0 ,t0,r ) p(x,tr ) −1 −r−1 (x − x0 ) − iζ (tr − t0,r ) + O(1)]. p(x0 ,t0,r ) exp[−iζ − t0,r ) + O(1)) (4.67) A comparison of (4.57) and (4.68) then proves (4.60). Inserting (4.60) into the second equation of (4.67), we have C(x, tr ) = θ(P∞+ , Dµb(x,tr ) )θ(P∞− , Dµb(x0 ,t0,r ) ) −2i · exp(2ie0,0 (x − x0 ) + 2ier−1,0 (tr − t0,r )), (4.68) q(x0 , t0,r )ω0 θ(P∞− , Dbν (x,tr ) )θ(P∞+ , Dbν (x0 ,t0,r ) ) together with the first equation of (4.67) yields (4.61), (4.62). Given C(x, tr ), we can determine φ in (4.5) f. Finally the from (4.55) and ψ2 in (4.58) from ψ2 = φψ1 . So we complete the prove of the theorem on M f to M then follows by continuity of the Abel map A(P ) and nonspecialty extension of all these results from M of Dµb(x,tr ) on M. Hence, we obtain the algebro-geometric solutions of the whole GNLS hierarchy.
