Darboux Transformation and Soliton Solution of the Nonlocal Generalized Sasa–Satsuma Equation

This paper aims to seek soliton solutions for the nonlocal generalized Sasa–Satsuma (gSS) equation by constructing the Darboux transformation (DT). We obtain soliton solutions for the nonlocal gSS equation, including double-periodic wave, breather-like, KM-breather solution, dark-soliton, W-shaped soliton, M-shaped soliton, W-shaped periodic wave, M-shaped periodic wave, double-peak dark-breather, double-peak bright-breather, and M-shaped double-peak breather solutions. Furthermore, interaction of these solitons, as well as their dynamical properties and asymptotic analysis, are analyzed. It will be shown that soliton solutions of the nonlocal gSS equation can be reduced into those of the nonlocal Sasa–Satsuma equation. However, several of these properties for the nonlocal Sasa–Satsuma equation are not found in the literature
