Soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with defect conditions

A recent development in the derivation of soliton solutions for initial-boundary value problems through Darboux transformations, motivated to reconsider solutions to the nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation on two half-lines connected via integrable defect conditions. Thereby, the Darboux transformation to construct soliton solutions is applied, while preserving the spectral boundary constraint with a time-dependent defect matrix. In this particular model, $N$-soliton solutions vanishing at infinity are constructed. Further, it is proven that solitons are transmitted through the defect independently of one another.
