Rogue wave solutions and rogue-breather solutions to the focusing nonlinear Schr?dinger equation

Based on the long wave limit method, the general form of the second-order and third-order rogue wave solutions to the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation are given by introducing some arbitrary parameters. The interaction solutions between the first-order rogue wave and one-breather wave are constructed by taking a long wave limit on the two-breather solutions. By applying the same method to the three-breather solutions, two types of interaction solutions are obtained, namely the first-order rogue wave and two breather waves, the second-order rogue wave and one-breather wave, respectively. The influence of the parameters related to the phase on the interaction phenomena is graphically demonstrated. Collisions occur among the rogue waves and breather waves. After the collisions, the shape of them remains unchanged. The abundant interaction phenomena in this paper will contribute to a better understanding of the propagation and control of nonlinear waves.
