24. If ψ1 is not a smooth function of t, then the term d2 ψ1 /d t2 in Eq. 4 cannot be ignored even at the asymptotic limit, and hence |ψ1| 2 has something to do with the propagation distance, which is in contradiction with the self-similar analysis.
25. Here "smooth" means that not only the power but also the phase are smooth functions of T. If there exists a phase jump, then the dark soliton may be produced.
