Abstract

The Darboux–Dressing Transformations are applied to the Lax pair associated to the system of nonlinear equations describing the resonant interaction of three waves in 1+1 dimensions. We display explicit solutions featuring localized waves whose profile vanishes at the spacial boundary |x|=∞, and which are not pure soliton solutions. These solutions depend on an arbitrary function and allow us to deal with collisions of waves with various profiles.
