Abstract
•Sasa–Satsuma equation that carries nonlinear chromatic dispersion is studied.•Stationary optical solitons are revealed.•The solutions are in terms of Gauss' hypergeometric functions.•Convergence criteria are also listed.
This paper retrieves stationary optical solitons to Sasa–Satsuma equation that carries nonlinear chromatic dispersion. The solutions are in terms of Gauss' hypergeometric functions and consequently the convergence criteria are also listed.
