Rogue waves are unexpectedly large deviations from equilibrium or otherwise calm positions in physical systems, e.g. hydrodynamic waves and optical beam intensities. The profiles and points of maximum displacements of these rogue waves are correlated with the movement of poles of the exact solutions extended to the complex plane through analytic continuation. Such links are shown to be surprisingly precise for the first order rogue wave of the nonlinear Schr¨odinger(NLS) and the derivative NLS equations. A computational study on the second order rogue waves of the NLS equation also displays remarkable agreements.
