Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the rogue waves for an integrable coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) system with the self-phase modulation, cross-phase modulation and four-wave mixing term, which can describe the propagation of optical waves in a multi-mode fibre. We construct a generalized Darboux transformation (GDT) for the CNLS system and find a gauge transformation which converts the Lax pair into the constant-coefficient differential equations. Solving those equations, we can obtain the vector solutions of the Lax pair. Using the GDT, we derive an iterative formula for the nth-order rogue-wave solutions for the CNLS system. We derive the first- and second-order rogue-wave solutions for the CNLS system and analyse the profiles for the rogue waves with respect to the self-phase modulation term a, cross-phase modulation term c and four-wave mixing term b, respectively. The rogue waves become thinner with the increase in the value for the real part of b and that the effect of a or c on the rogue waves is the same as the one of the real part of b.
