The periodic Camassa-Holm equation by the Riemann-Hilbert problem approach

This work addresses the development of the Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP) formalism (the Fokas method) for the Camassa-Holm equation under periodic boundary conditions. Particularly, we present a representation of the solution to this problem in terms of the solution of the associated Riemann-Hilbert problem, the data for which are determined by the initial data for the problem in terms of the associated spectral functions.

Oscillatory behavior of large eigenvalues in quantum Rabi models

We investigate the large $n$ asymptotics of the $n$-th eigenvalue for a class of unbounded self-adjoint operators defined by infinite Jacobi matrices with discrete spectrum. In the case of the quantum Rabi model we obtain the first three terms of the asymptotics which determine the parameters of the model. This paper is based on our previous paper [5] that it completes and improves.

The short pulse equation by a Riemann-Hilbert approach

We develop a Riemann-Hilbert approach to the inverse scattering transform method for the short pulse (SP) equation $u_{xt}=u+\frac{1}{6}(u^3)_{xx}$ with zero boundary conditions (as $|x|\to\infty$). This approach is directly applied to the Lax pair for the SP equation. It allows us to give a parametric representation of the solution to the Cauchy problem. This representation is then used for studying the long-time behavior of the solution as well as for retrieving the soliton solutions. Finally, the analysis of the long-time behavior allows us to formulate, in spectral terms, a sufficient condition for the wave breaking.

A Riemann-Hilbert Approach for the Novikov Equation

We develop the inverse scattering transform method for the Novikov equation $u_t-u_{txx}+4u^2u_x=3u u_xu_{xx}+u^2u_{xxx}$ considered on the line $x\in(-\infty,\infty)$ in the case of non-zero constant background. The approach is based on the analysis of an associated Riemann-Hilbert (RH) problem, which in this case is a $3\times 3$ matrix problem. The structure of this RH problem shares many common features with the case of the Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equation having quadratic nonlinear terms (see [Boutet de Monvel A., Shepelsky D., Nonlinearity 26 (2013), 2081-2107, arXiv:1107.5995]) and thus the Novikov equation can be viewed as a "modified DP equation", in analogy with the relationship between the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation. We present parametric formulas giving the solution of the Cauchy problem for the Novikov equation in terms of the solution of the RH problem and discuss the possibilities to use the developed formalism for further studying of the Novikov equation.

Asymptotic behavior of large eigenvalues of Jaynes-Cummings type models

We consider a class of unbounded self-adjoint operators including the Hamiltonian of the Jaynes-Cummings model without the rotating-wave approximation (RWA). The corresponding operators are defined by infinite Jacobi matrices with discrete spectrum. Our purpose is to give the asymptotic behavior of large eigenvalues.

Robin boundary condition and shock problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We consider the initial boundary value (IBV) problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the quarter plane $x>0,t>0$ in the case of periodic initial data (at $t=0$) and a Robin boundary condition at $x=0$. Our approach is based on the simultaneous spectral analysis of the Lax pair equations combined with symmetry considerations for the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problems. A connection between the original IBV problem and an associated initial value (IV) problem is established.

Sharp semiclassical estimates for the number of eigenvalues below a degenerate critical level

We consider the semiclassical asymptotic behaviour of the number of eigenvalues smaller than $E$ for elliptic operators in $L\sp 2 ({\bf R}\sp d)$. We describe a method of finding remainder estimates related to the volume of the region of the phase space in which the principal symbol takes values belonging to the interval $[E'-h; E'+h]$, where $E'$ is close to $E$. This method allows to derive remainder estimates $O(h\sp {1-d})$ for a class of symbols with critical points and non-smooth coefficients.
