Riemann-Hilbert method and soliton solutions in the system of two-component Hirota equations (1809.07035v1)
Published 19 Sep 2018 in math.AP
Abstract: In this letter we examine the two-component Hirota (TH) equations which describes the pulse propagation in a coupled fiber with higher-order dispersion and self-steepening. As the TH equations is a complete integrable system, which admits a $3\times 3$ Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segu(AKNS)-type Lax pair, we obtain the general N-soliton solutions of the TH equations via the Riemann-Hilbert(RH) method when the jump matrix of a specific RH problem is a $3\times3$ unit matrix. As an example, the expression of one- and two-soliton are displayed explicitly.
