1 Introduction

On the basis of Bender and Boettcher,[1?2]the PT-symmetry plays a crucial role in the spectrum of the Hamiltonian. Solving solition equation is an important part in the natural science research.More scholars know that the nonlinear integrable systems are either local or nonlocal.So,naturally the next problem is whether there exist some nonlinear integrable systems with both local and nonlocal nonlinearities.[3?6]The PT-symmetric integrable local and nonlocal vector nonlinear Schr?dinger(NLS)equations are formulated with matrix Lax pairs in Ref.[7].Some novel soliton solutions of the 2-dimensional NLS equation with a PT-symmetric potential can be extended to the equations with two or more spatial variables.[8]The discrete and coupled nonlocal NLS equations are solved via the Darboux transformation in Ref.[9],and some dynamics of higher-order rational solitons of the nonlocal NLS equation are explained with generalized Darboux transformation in Ref.[10].Some discrete rogue-wave solutions with PT-symmetric potential of Ablowitz-Musslimani equation are derived by Yu in Ref.[11].The generalized three coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations are worked by means of the Darboux transformation and Hirota’s method,several non-autonomous matter-wave solitons including dark-dark-dark and brightbright-bright shapes are obtained in Ref.[12].The nonlocal NLS equation with nonzero boundary conditions is investigated with inverse scattering transform in Ref.[13].An algebraic iterative algorithm is provided to obtain a series of analytic solutions for the discrete PT-symmetric nonlocal NLS equation in Ref.[14].Zhou considered the Darboux transformations and global solutions for a nonlocal derivative NLS equation,which can be globally defined and bounded for all(x,t)in Ref.[15].Integrability of a general integrable nonlocal coupled NLS equation is conf i rmed,some dynamics and interactions of different kinds of solitons are discussed by Zhu in Ref.[16].Yan presented a method to construct some novel two-family-parameter equations,including the local,nonlocal,and mixed-localnonlocal vector NLS equations.[17]

With the further study of the soliton theory,it provides many methods for solving nonlinear partial differential equations,such as the homogeneous balance method,[18]bilinear method,[19]traveling wave method,[19]Darboux transformation(DT)method,[20]inverse scattering transform method.[19?22]The Darboux transformation can get a new solution from a known equation,some multi-soliton solutions of the nonlinear partial differential equation can be obtained through multiple Darboux transformation.For examples,some bright,dark and breather wave soliton solutions of the super-integrable hierarchy presented by using Darboux transformation.[23]The non-autonomous multi-rogue wave solutions in a spin-1 coupled nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation with varying dispersions,higher nonlinearities,gain/loss and external potentials are investigated in Ref.[24].The generalized three-coupled Gross Pitaevskii equations by means of the DT and Hirota’s method are worked,several non-autonomous matter-wave solitons including dark-dark-dark and bright-bright-bright shapes are obtained in Refs.[24–25].The non-autonomous discrete vector bright-dark solutions and their controllable behaviors in the coupled Ablowitz-Ladik equation with variable coefficients are considered in Ref.[25].The Darboux transformation method with 4×4 spectral problem are applied to a specific equation and then the explicit solutions of the lattice integrable coupling equation are obtained in Refs.[26–27].

To the best of our knowledge,all nonlinearities in the known nonlinear integrable systems are either local or nonlocal.There are few work to solve some nonlinear integrable systems with both local and nonlocal nonlinearities.Therefore,we will investigate the Darboux transformation of the mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations with a spectral problem,and obtain the one-and two-and N-soliton solution formulas of the mixed localnonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations equation with N-fold Darboux transformation.Based on the obtained solutions,we find that unlike the local and nonlocal cases,the mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations have some novel results.

This paper is organized as follows:In Sec.2,we construct Darboux transformation for mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations,and derive the proofs of the Darboux transformation procedure.In Sec.3,we apply the Darboux transformation to mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations and obtain N-soliton solution formula.The evolutions of the intensity distribution of the soliton solutions are illustrated.

2 Darboux Transformation for Mixed Local-Nonlocal Vector Schr?dinger Equations

More scholars know that the nonlinear integrable systems are either local or nonlocal.So,naturally the next problem is whether there exist some nonlinear integrable systems with both local and nonlocal nonlinearities,how to solve this kinds of spectral nonlinear integrable systems with both local and nonlocal nonlinearities.

In this paper,we use two families parameters system to find new mixed-local-nonlocal systems and derive some exact solutions for mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equations.In next content,we find novel mixed-localnonlocal vector NLS equations,i.e.,the q1-nonlocal-q2-local systems in Ref.[28].

we first consider the linear iso-spectral system

here Ψ =(ψ1(x,t),ψ2(x,t),ψ3(x,t))T,is a 3 × 1 column complex-valued eigenvector function,λ∈C is an isospectral parameter,the generalized Pauli matrix Σ3and potential matrix U are defined by

where In×nand 0n×nare n × n unity and zero matrixes,respectively,R(x,t)=(r1(x,t),r2(x,t),...,rn(x,t))and Q(x,t)= (q1(x,t),q2(x,t),...,qn(x,t))Tare complexvalued row vector functions.The compatibility condition of Eqs.(2)and(3),Ψxt= Ψtx,i.e.,zero-curvature equation,leads to the 2n-component coupled nonlinear wave system

Here we consider one of these cases:in order to simplify the equation,we make σ1= σ2=1,and Σ3=and introduce a new one-family-parameter ?xj= ±1,j=1,2,3,...,n,symmetry reduction

which make system(5)generate the above-introduced new local-nonlocal vector equations(1)with ?xj= ±1,?tj=1,that is,Eq.(1)with ?xj= ±1 and ?tj=1 adm-its the Lax pair given by Eqs.(2)and(3)with the new symmetric constraint(6).

Therefore,we can get a novel Lax pairs with R(x,t)=(r1(x,t),r2(x,t))and Q(x,t)=(q1(x,t),q2(x,t))Tin Eq.(5)we can find that the zero-curvature equation can lead to Eq.(1)under the condition of compatibility.

Next,we construct the Darboux transformation of mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equation with the Lax pairs of Eqs.(7)and(8),which are satisfied with the 3×3 transformation matrices of φ,,and.We consider the isospectral problem of mixed local-nonlocal vector Schr?dinger equation and recommend a gauge transformation T of the Lax pairs of Eqs.(7)and(8):

Let ψ = (ψ1,ψ2,ψ3)T, ? = (?1,?2,?3)T,X =(X1,X2,X3)Tare three basic solutions of the systems Eqs.(7)and(8),then we give the following linear algebraic systems:

In order to verify the analytic solutions,we substitute the obtained solutions(36)and(39)into the Eq.(1),and we find that the solutions(36)and(39)satisfy the mixed-local-nonlocal vector NLS equations,i.e.,the q1-nonlocal-q2-local systems.And we will test the validity of the analytic solutions by numerical simulations of the initial equations in the future paper.
