Effective integration of ultra-elliptic solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation

An effective integration method based on the classical solution to the Jacobi inversion problem, using Kleinian ultra-elliptic functions, is presented for quasi-periodic two-phase solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. The two-phase solutions with real quasi-periods are known to form a two-dimensional torus, modulo a circle of complex phase factors, that can be expressed as a ratio of theta functions. In this paper, the two-phase solutions are explicitly parametrized in terms of the branch points on the genus-two Riemann surface of the theta functions. Simple formulas, in terms of the imaginary parts of the branch points, are obtained for the maximum modulus and the minimum modulus of the two-phase solution.
