The initial-value problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation is solved numerically by following the various steps of the inverse scattering transform. Starting from the initial value of the solution, a Volterra integral equation is solved followed by three FFT to arrive at the reflection coefficient and initial Marchenko kernel. By convolution these initial data are propagated in time. Using structured-matrix techniques the time evolved Marchenko integral equation is solved to arrive at the solution to the NLS equation.

Abstract
The initial-value problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation is solved numerically by following the various steps of the inverse scattering transform. Starting from the initial value of the solution, a Volterra integral equation is solved followed by three FFT to arrive at the reflection coefficient and initial Marchenko kernel. By convolution these initial data are propagated in time. Using structured-matrix techniques the time evolved Marchenko integral equation is solved to arrive at the solution to the NLS equation.
