Inverse scattering transforms for the focusing and defocusing mKdV equations with nonzero boundary conditions (1810.12150v2)

Abstract: We explore systematically a rigorous theory of the inverse scattering transforms with matrix Riemann-Hilbert problems for both focusing and defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations with non-zero boundary conditions (NZBCs) at infinity. Using a suitable uniformization variable, the direct and inverse scattering problems are proposed on a complex plane instead of a two-sheeted Riemann surface. For the direct scattering problem, the analyticities, symmetries and asymptotic behaviors of the Jost solutions and scattering matrix, and discrete spectra are established. The inverse problems are formulated and solved with the aid of the Riemann-Hilbert problems, and the reconstruction formulae, trace formulae, and theta conditions are also found. In particular, we present the general solutions for the focusing mKdV equation with NZBCs and both simple and double poles, and for the defocusing mKdV equation with NZBCs and simple poles. Finally, some representative reflectionless potentials are in detail studied to illustrate distinct wave structures for both focusing and defocusing mKdV equations with NZBCs.
