A reductive perturbation method deduces the Maxwell equation coupled with the Larmor equation of the torque to the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation that admits optical solitons in the medium.RevTex format;12pages;1 figure;submitted to Physical Review LettersExactly Solvable and Integrable SystemsOn a new approach to optical solitons in dielectric fiberstext
