Binary Darboux Transformation for the Sasa-Satsuma Equation

The Sasa-Satsuma equation is an integrable higher-order nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Higher-order and multicomponent generalisations of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are important in various applications, e.g., in optics. One of these equations is the Sasa-Satsuma equation. We present the binary Darboux transformations for the Sasa-Satsuma equation and then construct its quasigrammians solutions by iterating its binary Darboux transformations. Periodic, one-soliton, two-solitons and breather solutions are given as explicit examples.
