Initial-Boundary Value Problems for the Defocusing Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation in the Semiclassical Limit

Approximating Initial-Value Problems with Two-Point Boundary-Value Problems: BBM-Equation

Asymptotic soliton train solutions of the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

Asymptotic behavior of initially "large and smooth" pulses is investigated at two typical stages of their evolution governed by the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation. At first, wave breaking phenomenon is studied in the limit of small dispersion. A solution of the Whitham modulational equations is found for the case of dissipationless shock wave arising after the wave breaking point. Th...

Initial-Boundary Value Problems for the Korteweg-de Vries Equation

Exact and approximate solutions of the initial-boundary value problem for the Korteweg-de Vries equation on the semi-infinite line are found. These solutions are found for both constant and time-dependent boundary values. The form of the solution is found to depend markedly on the specific boundary and initial value. In particular, multiple solutions and nonsteady solutions are possible. The an...

The KdV/KP-I Limit of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation

Abstract We justify rigorously the convergence of the amplitude of solutions of Nonlinear-Schrödinger type Equations with non zero limit at infinity to an asymptotic regime governed by the Kortewegde Vries equation in dimension 1 and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili I equation in dimensions 2 and more. We get two types of results. In the one-dimensional case, we prove directly by energy bounds that t...
