Abstract A(2+1)-dimensional multi-component derivative nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger (DNLS) equation is obtained from the symmetry constraint of the modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, The model is proved to be inte- grable under the meaning that it possesses the Paitdevé property and the infinitely many generalized symmetries which constitute a generalized W$\infty$ algebra, An integrable DNLS hierarchy is obtained from the flow equation of infinitely many symntetries of the DNLS equation.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
