Focusing nonlocal nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with asymmetric boundary conditions: large-time behavior

We consider the focusing integrable nonlocal nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$\mathrm{i}q_{t}(x,t)+q_{xx}(x,t)+2q^{2}(x,t)\bar{q}(-x,t)=0$$ with asymmetric nonzero boundary conditions: $q(x,t)\to\pm A\mathrm{e}^{-2\mathrm{i}A^2t}$ as $x\to\pm\infty$, where $A>0$ is an arbitrary constant. The goal of this work is to study the asymptotics of the solution of the initial value problem for this equation as $t\to+\infty$. For a class of initial values we show that there exist three qualitatively different asymptotic zones in the $(x,t)$ plane. Namely, there are regions where the parameters are modulated (being dependent on the ratio $x/t$) and a central region, where the parameters are unmodulated. This asymptotic picture is reminiscent of that for the defocusing classical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, but with some important differences. In particular, the absolute value of the solution in all three regions depends on details of the initial data.
