Abstract

The dressing method based on the 2 × 2 matrix \(\bar \partial \)-problem is generalized to study the canonical form of AB equations. The soliton solutions for the AB equations are given by virtue of the properties of Cauchy matrix. Asymptotic behaviors of the N-soliton solution are discussed.
