Abstract

The Lax pair for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with varying dispersion and nonlinearity has been constructed. It is shown that Lax's pair, and consequently, the exact integrability of the system, exists only under certain conditions and that the parameter functions describing dispersion and nonlinearity inhomogeneities cannot be chosen independently. The formation, interaction and stability of dispersion managed solitons have been investigated.
