Abstract
In this paper, we firstly deduce a reverse space-time Fokas–Lenells equation which can be derived from a rather simple but extremely important symmetry reduction of corresponding local equation. Next, the determinant representations of one-fold Darboux transformation and N-fold Darboux transformation are expressed in detail by special eigenfunctions of spectral problem. Depending on zero seed solution and nonzero seed solution, exact solutions, including bright soliton solutions, kink solutions, periodic solutions, breather solutions, rogue wave solutions and several types of mixed soliton solutions, can be presented. Furthermore, the dynamical behaviors are discussed through some figures. It should be mentioned that the solutions of nonlocal Fokas–Lenells equation possess new characteristics different from the ones of local case. Besides, we also demonstrate the integrability by providing infinitely many conservation laws. The above results provide an alternative possibility to understand physical phenomena in the field of nonlinear optics and related fields.
