On the increasing tritronquée solutions of the Painlevé-II equation (Q1755862): Difference between revisions

This equation has six solutions with the following properties: two of them have asymptotics \(u\simeq \pm(-\frac{1}{2}x)^{1/2}\) as \(|x|\rightarrow \infty\), \(-\frac{\pi}{3}<\mathrm{arg}(-x)<\pi\) (a unique solution for which sign); two solutions with the same asymptotics \(|x|\rightarrow \infty\), \(-\pi<\mathrm{arg}(-x)<\frac{\pi}{3}\); and two solutions with the asymptotics \(u\simeq \pm i(\frac{1}{2}x)^{1/2}\) as \(|x|\rightarrow \infty\), \(|\mathrm{arg}(x)|<\frac{2\pi}{3}\). These solutions are called the increasing tritronque solutions. ``These solutions are investigated from the point of view of a Riemann-Hilbert representation related to the Lax pair of Jimbo and Miwa, which naturally arises in the analysis of rogue waves of infinite order. We show that for generic complex \(\alpha\), all such solutions are asymptotically pole-free along the bisecting ray of the complementary sector \(|\mathrm{arg}(-x)| <\frac{\pi}{3}\) that contains the poles far from the origin.''
