Abstract: We study the long time asymptotic behavior for the Cauchy problem of an integrable real nonlocal mKdV equation with nonzero initial data in the solitonic regions �egin{align*} &q_t(x,t)-6sigma q(x,t)q(-x,-t)q_{x}(x,t)+q_{xxx}(x,t)=0, &q(x,0)=q_{0}(x), lim_{x o pminfty} q_{0}(x)=q_{pm}, end{align*} where |qpm|=1 and q+=deltaq−, sigmadelta=−1. In our previous article, we have obtained long time asymptotics for the nonlocal mKdV equation in the solitonic region −6<xi<6 with xi=fracxt. In this paper, we calculate the asymptotic expansion of the solution q(x,t) for other solitonic regions xi<−6 and xi>6. Based on the Riemann-Hilbert problem of the the Cauchy problem, further using the steepest descent method, we derive different long time asymptotic expansions of the solution q(x,t) in above two different space-time solitonic regions. In the region xi<−6, phase function heta(z) has four stationary phase points on the mathbbR. Correspondingly, q(x,t) can be characterized with an mathcalN(Lambda)-soliton on discrete spectrum, the leading order term on continuous spectrum and an residual error term, which are affected by a function mImu(zetai). In the region xi>6, phase function heta(z) has four stationary phase points on imathbbR, the corresponding asymptotic approximations can be characterized with an mathcalN(Lambda)-soliton with diverse residual error order mathcalO(t−1).
