The ``Good Boussinesq equation: a Riemann-Hilbert approach

Abstract: We develop an inverse scattering transform formalism for the "good" Boussinesq equation on the line. Assuming that the solution exists, we show that it can be expressed in terms of the solution of a 3imes3 matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. The Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated in terms of two reflection coefficients whose definitions involve only the initial data, and it has a form which makes it suitable for the evaluation of long-time asymptotics via Deift-Zhou steepest descent arguments.
