Semiclassical Focusing NLS with Barrier Data

Mathematical Physics 2009-07-17 v2 math.MP

Abstract

We study the semiclassical behavior of the focusing nonlinear Schroedinger equation in 1+1-dimensions under discontinuous "barrier" data and we describe the violent oscillations arising in terms of theta functions. The construction of proofs relies on the analysis of the associated Riemann-Hilbert problem.
