Long-time asymptotics of the coupled nonlinear Schödinger equation in a weighted Sobolev space

We study the Cauchy problem for the focusing coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) equation with initial data $\mathbf{q}_0$ lying in the weighted Sobolev space and the scattering data having $n$ simple zeros. Based on the corresponding $3\times3$ matrix spectral problem, we deduce the Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP) for CNLS equation through inverse scattering transform. We remove discrete spectrum of initial RHP using Darboux transformations. By applying the nonlinear steepest-descent method for RHP introduced by Deift and Zhou, we compute the long-time asymptotic expansion of the solution $\mathbf{q}(x,t)$ to an (optimal) residual error of order $\mathcal{O}\left(t^{-3 / 4+1/(2p)}\right)$ where $2\le p<\infty$. The leading order term in this expansion is a multi-soliton whose parameters are modulated by soliton-soliton and soliton-radiation interactions. Our work strengthens and extends the earlier work regarding long-time asymptotics for solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a delta potential and even initial data by Deift and Park.

A modified Korteweg-de Vries equation soliton gas under the nonzero background

In this paper, we consider a soliton gas of the focusing modified Korteweg-de Vries generated from the $N$-soliton solutions under the nonzero background. The spectral soliton density is chosen on the pure imaginary axis, excluding the branch cut $Σ_{c}=\left[-i, i\right]$. In the limit $N\to\infty$, we establish the Riemann-Hilbert problem of the soliton gas. Using the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest-descent method, this soliton gas under the nonzero background will decay to a constant background as $x\to+\infty$, while its asymptotics as $x\to-\infty$ can be expressed with a Riemann-Theta function, attached to a Riemann surface with genus-two. We also analyze the large $t$ asymptotics over the entire spatial domain, which is divided into three distinct asymptotic regions depending on the ratio $ξ=\frac{x}{t}$. Using the similar method, we provide the leading-order asymptotic behaviors for these three regions and exhibit the dynamics of large $t$ asymptotics.

Inverse scattering transform for the integrable fractional derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation

In this paper, we explore the integrable fractional derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (fDNLS) equation by using the inverse scattering transform. Firstly, we start from the recursion operator and obtain a formal fDNLS equation. Then the inverse scattering problem is formulated and solved through the matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. Subsequently, we give the explicit form of the fDNLS equation according to the properties of squared eigenfunctions, such as squared eigenfunctions are the eigenfunctions of the recursion operator of the integrable equations. The reflectionless potential with a simple pole for the zero boundary condition is carried out explicitly by means of determinants. Finally, for the fractional one-soliton solution, we analyze the wave propagation direction and the effect of the small fractional parameter $ε$ on the wave. The fractional one-soliton solution has been verified rigorously. In addition, we also analyze the fractional rational solution obtained by taking the limit of the fractional one-soliton solution.

On the large-order asymtptics of Kuznetsov-Ma breathers

We study the large-order asymptotics for the Kuznetsov-Ma breather of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the far-field regime. With the aid of Darboux transformation, we first derive the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert representation for the high-order Kuznetsov-Ma breathers. Under the far-field limit, there are five asymptotical regions in the space-time plane where the breathers behave differently, the genus-two region, the algebraic-decay region, and three distinct genus-zero regions. With the aid of the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest decent method, we give the leading order term for each region and verify the consistency between the exact solution and the asymptotic solution numerically. Compared to the previous studies about the large-order asymptotic analysis of rogue waves and solitons, we find a novel genus-two asymptotic region, which further enriches the research of large-order dynamics.

Nondegenerate solitons in the integrable fractional coupled Hirota equation

In this paper, based on the nonlinear fractional equations proposed by Ablowitz, Been, and Carr in the sense of Riesz fractional derivative, we explore the fractional coupled Hirota equation and give its explicit form. Unlike the previous nonlinear fractional equations, this type of nonlinear fractional equation is integrable. Therefore, we obtain the fractional $n$-soliton solutions of the fractional coupled Hirota equation by inverse scattering transformation in the reflectionless case. In particular, we analyze the one- and two-soliton solutions of the fractional coupled Hirota equation and prove that the fractional two-soliton can also be regarded as a linear superposition of two fractional single solitons as $|t|\to\infty$. Moreover, under some special constraint, we also obtain the nondegenerate fractional soliton solutions and give a simple analysis for them.

Large order breathers of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Multi-soliton and high-order soliton solutions are two type of famous ones in the integrable focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The dynamics of multi-soliton was well known to us since 70s of the last century by the determinant analysis. However, there is few progress on the high-order solitons. In this work, we would like to analyze the large order asymptotics for the high-order breathers, which are special cases of double high-order solitons with the same velocity to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. To analyze the large order dynamics, we first convert the representation of Darboux transformation into a framework of Riemann-Hilbert problem. Then we show that there exist five distinct asymptotic regions by the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method. It is very interesting that a novel genus-three asymptotic region is first found in the large order asymptotics to large high-order breathers, which enriches the dynamic behaviors in the field of large order solitons. All results to the asymptotic analysis are verified by the numerical method.

Rational solutions of Painlevé-II equation as Gram determinant

Under the Flaschka-Newell Lax pair, the Darboux transformation for the Painlevé-II equation is constructed by the limiting technique. With the aid of the Darboux transformation, the rational solutions are represented by the Gram determinant, and then we give the large $y$ asymptotics of the determinant and the rational solutions. Finally, the solution of the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem is obtained from the Darboux matrices.

Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation: one-constraint method and lump pattern

The Kadomtsev-Petviashvili reduction method is a crucial method to derive the solitonic solutions of (1+1) dimensional integrable system from high dimensional system. In this work, we explore to use the solutions of lower dimensional system to construct the solutions in the high dimensional one with the Darboux transformation. Especially, we utilize this method to disclose the relationship between the rogue wave and lump solutions. Under one-constraint method, the asymptotic analysis to the lump pattern of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation is given

Asymptotic analysis of high order soliton for the Hirota equation

In this paper, we mainly analyze the long-time asymptotics of high-order soliton for the Hirota equation. Two different Riemann-Hilbert representations of Darboux matrix with high-order soliton are given to establish the relationships between inverse scattering method and Darboux transformation. The asymptotic analysis with single spectral parameter is derived through the formulas of determinant directly. Furthermore, the long-time asymptotics with $k$ spectral parameters is given by combining the iterated Darboux matrix and the result of high-order soliton with single spectral parameter, which discloses the structure of high-order soliton clearly and is possible to be utilized in the optic experiments.

Large and infinite order solitons of the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We study the large order and infinite order soliton of the coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equation with the Riemann-Hilbert method. By using the Riemann-Hilbert representation for the high order Darboux dressing matrix, the large order and infinite order solitons can be analyzed directly without using inverse scattering transform. We firstly disclose the asymptotics for large order soliton, which is divided into four different regions -- the elliptic function region, the non-oscillatory region, the exponential and algebraic decay region. We verify the consistence between asymptotic expression and exact solutions by the Darboux dressing method numerically. Moreover, we consider the property and dynamics for infinite order solitons -- a special limitation for the larger order soliton. It is shown that the elliptic function and exponential region will disappear for the infinite order solitons.

General high-order rogue wave to NLS-Boussinesq equation with the dynamical analysis

General high-order rogue waves of the NLS-Boussinesq equation are obtained by the KP-hierarchy reduction theory. These rogue waves are expressed with the determinants, whose entries are all algebraic forms. It is found that the fundamental rogue waves can be classified three patterns: four-petals state, dark state, bright state by choosing different parameter $α$ values. As the evolution of the parameter $α$. An interesting phenomena is discovered: the rogue wave changes from four-petals state to dark state, whereafter to the bright state, which are consistent with the change of the corresponding critical points to the function of two variables. Furthermore, the dynamics of second-order and third-order rogue waves are presented in detail, which can be regarded as the nonlinear superposition of the fundamental rogue waves.

Rogue wave and a pair of resonance stripe solitons to a reduced generalized (3+1)-dimensional KP equation

Based on the bilinear operator and symbol calculation, some lump solutions are presented, rationally localized in all directions in the space, to a reduced (3+1)-dimensional KP equation. The lump solutions all contain six parameters, four of which must cater to the non-zero conditions so as to insure the analyticity and rational localization, while the others are free. Then the interaction between lump soliton and one stripe soliton is described and the result shows that the lump soliton will be drowned or swallowed by the stripe soliton. Furthermore, we extend this method to a new combination of positive quadratic function and hyperbolic functions. Especially, it is interesting that a rogue wave is found to be aroused by the interaction between lump soliton and a pair of resonance stripe solitons. By choosing the values of the parameters, the dynamic properties of lump solution, interaction between lump soliton and one stripe soliton, rogue wave, generated by the interaction between lump soliton and a pair of resonance solitons, are shown graphically.
