Abstract

A general perturbation method is presented for soliton equations modified by small but arbitrary perturbation terms. Equations for the adiabatic time evolution of the soliton parameters are derived from an approximate variational principle. The method is applied to the Korteweg-de Vries and nonlinear Schrödinger equations modified by various dissipative perturbation terms.
