Soliton resolution and asymptotic stability of $N$-soliton solutions for the defocusing mKdV equation with a non-vanishing background (2108.03650v4)

Abstract: We analytically study the large-time asymptotics of the solution of the defocusing modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation under a symmetric non-vanishing background, which supports the emergence of solitons. It is demonstrated that the asymptotic expansion of the solution at the large time could verify the renowned soliton resolution conjecture. Moreover, the asymptotic stability of $N$-soliton solution is also exhibited in the present work. We establish our results by performing a $\bar{\partial}$-nonlinear steepest descent analysis to the associated Riemann-Hilbert (RH) problem.
