Abstract
The nonlinear equations which describe the long wavelength, weakly dis persive, kink oscillations propagating along a magnetic flux tube are derived. The character of nonlinearity appeared to be cubic, with the coefficients which reflect the influence of a magnetic free environmen t on the transverse oscillations of the flux tube.
