Abstract

We derive the two-breather solution of the class I infinitely extended nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We present a general form of this multi-parameter solution that includes infinitely many free parameters of the equation and free parameters of the two breather components. Particular cases of this solution include rogue wave triplets, and special cases of ‘breather-to-soliton’ and ‘rogue wave-to-soliton’ transformations. The presence of many parameters in the solution allows one to describe wave propagation problems with higher accuracy than with the use of the basic NLSE.
