Abstract
Nonlinear dispersionless equations can be obtained as dispersionless limits (quasiclassical limits) of integrable hierarchies of equations or by constructing a system of hydrodynamic type. In this paper, the dispersionless limit of the (1+1)-dimensional Fokas-Lenells equation is found. We present Lax pair for this dispersionless equation. As well known, the Fokas-Lenells equation characterizes the propagation of ultrashort nonlinear light pulses in optical fibers. Exact solutions of the dispersionless version of the Fokas-Lenells equation describe nonlinear shock waves in optical fiber systems. By using the obtained results, one can find shock wave solutions of the dispersionless equation, which have different physical applications.
