A Reduced System of Linear Algebraic Equations for Giving Soliton Solutions of the Generalized ZS/AKNS Systems

A simple method for finding soliton solutions of the generaked ZS/AKNS systems whose Lax pairs are matrices with high orders is considered. An explicit expreesion of transformation between the Jost solution relating to the (n-1)-soliton solution and that relating to the n-soliton solution is found. A reduced system of N algebraic equations for giving N soliton solutions is deduced, it has an identical form no matter how high the order of matrices of the Lax pain is.
