The non-linear Schrödinger equation and the conformal properties of non-relativistic space-time
P. A. Horvathy, J. -C. Yera
Abstract
The cubic non-linear Schrödinger equation where the coefficient of the nonlinear term is a function F(t,x) only passes the Painlevé test of Weiss, Tabor, and Carnevale only for F=(a+bt)-1, where a and b are constants. This is explained by transforming the time-dependent system into the constant-coefficient NLS by means of a time-dependent non-linear transformation, related to the conformal properties of non-relativistic space-time. A similar argument explains the integrability of the NLS in a uniform force field or in an oscillator background.
