We prove the existence of the double scaling limit in the unitary matrix model with quartic interaction, and we show that the correlation functions in the double scaling limit are expressed in terms of the integrable kernel determined by the psi-function for the Hastings-McLeod solution to the Painlevé II equation. The proof is based on the Riemann-Hilbert approach.

This paper focuses on investigation of the N-coupled Hirota equations arising in an optical fiber. Starting from analyzing the spectral problem, a kind of matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated strictly on the real axis. Then based on the resulting matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem under the constraint of no reflection, multi-soliton solutions to the N-coupled Hirota equations are presented explicitly.
We prove a nonlinear steepest descent theorem for Riemann-Hilbert problems with Carleson jump contours and jump matrices of low regularity and slow decay. We illustrate the theorem by deriving the long-time asymptotics for the mKdV equation in the similarity sector for initial data with limited decay and regularity.
Explicit solutions to the Riemann-Hilbert problem will be found realising some irreducible non-rigid local systems. The relation to isomonodromy and the sixth Painleve equation will be described. Keywords: Riemann-Hilbert problem, Painleve equations, algebraic solutions, Heun equations, tetrahedral/octahedral group, triangle groups, Belyi maps.
We use discrete analogs of Riemann-Hilbert problem's methods to derive the discrete Bessel kernel which describes the poissonized Plancherel measures for symmetric groups. To do this we define discrete analogs of a Riemann-Hilbert problem and of an integrable integral operator and show that computing the resolvent of a discrete integrable operator can be reduced to solving a corresponding discrete Riemann-Hilbert problem. We also give an example, explicitly solvable in terms of classical special functions, when a discrete Riemann-Hilbert problem converges in a certain scaling limit to a conven…
We describe the close connection between the linear system for the sixth Painlevé equation and the general Heun equation, formulate the Riemann-Hilbert problem for the Heun functions and show how, in the case of reducible monodromy, the Riemann-Hilbert formalism can be used to construct explicit polynomial solutions of the Heun equation.
The geometric phase that appears in the effects of Aharonov-Bohm type is interpreted in the frame of Deligne's version of the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence. We extend also the concept of flat gauge field to $B$-branes which are coherent sheaves, so that such a field on a sheaf turns it into a holonomic regular $D$-module.
We consider the local field dynamical temperature correlation function of the Quantum Nonlinear Schrodinger equation with the finite coupling constant. This correlation function admits a Fredholm determinant representation. The related operator-valued Riemann--Hilbert problem is used for analysing the leading term of the large time and long distance asymptotics of the correlation function.
The Cauchy problem for the Camassa -- Holm equation with step-like initial conditions is reformulated as a Riemann -- Hilbert problem. The the initial value problem solution is obtained then in a parametric form from the Riemann -- Hilbert problem solution.
A Riemann-Hilbert problem for a $q$-difference Painlevé equation, known as $q\textrm{P}_{\textrm{IV}}$, is shown to be solvable. This yields a bijective correspondence between the transcendental solutions of $q\textrm{P}_{\textrm{IV}}$ and corresponding data on an associated $q$-monodromy surface. We also construct the moduli space of $q\textrm{P}_{\textrm{IV}}$ explicitly.
We consider the gap probability for the Bessel process in the single-time and multi-time case. We prove that the scalar and matrix Fredholm determinants of such process can be expressed in terms of determinants of integrable kernels à la Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov and thus related to suitable Riemann-Hilbert problems. In the single-time case, we construct a Lax pair formalism and we derive a Painlevé III equation related to the Fredholm determinant.
In this paper, we are going to solve nonlinear nonlocal reverse-time six-component six-order AKNS system. We used reverse-time reduction to reduce the coupled system to an integrable six-order NLS-type equation. Starting from the spectral problem of the AKNS system, a Riemann-Hilbert problem will be formulated. This formulation allows to generate soliton solutions by using the vectors lying in the kernel of the matrix Jost solutions. When reflection coefficients are zeros, the jump matrix is identity and the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem yields soliton solutions, leading to explore the…
We consider the gap probability for the Generalized Bessel process in the single-time and multi-time case. We prove that the scalar and matrix Fredholm determinants of such process can be expressed in terms of determinants of Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov integrable kernels and thus related to suitable Riemann-Hilbert problems. In the single-time case, we construct a Lax pair formalism, while in the multi-time case we explicitly define a new multi-time kernel to study.
In this paper, we aim to investigate the mixed Chen-Lee-Liu derivative nonlinear Schrödinger(CLL-NLS) equation via the Riemann-Hilbert(RH) method. we construct a RH problem base on the Jost solution of the Lax pair. By solving this RH problem corresponding to the non reflection case, the N-soliton solution of CLL-NLS equation is obtained, which expression is the ratio of $(2N+1)\times(2N+1)$ determinant and $2N\times2N$ determinant.
In this paper we solve an arbitrary matrix Riemann-Hilbert (inverse monodromy) problem with quasi-permutation monodromy representations outside of a divisor in the space of monodromy data. This divisor is characterized in terms of the theta-divisor on the Jacobi manifold of an auxiliary compact Riemann surface realized as an appropriate branched covering of $\CP1$ . The solution is given in terms of a generalization of Szegö kernel on the Riemann surface. In particular, our construction provides a new class of solutions of the Schlesinger system. The isomonodromy tau-function of these solution…
The purpose of this paper is to push forward the theory of operator-valued Riemann Hilbert problems and demonstrate their effectiveness in respect to the implementation of a non-linear steepest descent method \textit{á la} Deift-Zhou. In the present paper, we demonstrate that the operator-valued Riemann--Hilbert problem arising in the characterisation of so-called $c$-shifted integrable integral operators allows one to extract the large-$x$ asymptotics of the Fredholm determinant associated with such operators.
Solutions to the Riemann-Hilbert problems with irregular singularities naturally associated to semisimple Frobenius manifold structures on Hurwitz spaces (moduli spaces of meromorphic functions on Riemann surfaces) are constructed. The solutions are given in terms of meromorphic bidifferentials defined on the underlying Riemann surface. The relationship between different classes of Frobenius manifold structures on Hurwitz spaces (real doubles, deformations) is described on the level of the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problems.
We show, how the Riemann-Hilbert approach to the elastodynamic equations, which have been suggested in our preceding papers, works in the half-plane case. We pay a special attention to the appearance of the Rayleigh waves within the scheme.
A GBDT version of the Backlund-Darboux transformation is constructed for a non-isospectral canonical system, which plays essential role in the theory of random matrix models. The corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem is treated and some explicit formulas are obtained. A related inverse problem is formulated and solved.
In this paper we describe various applications of the Riemann-Hilbert method to the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the line and on the circle.
In this work, we investigated a combined Chen-Lee-Liu derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation(called CLL-NLS equation by Kundu) on the half-line by unified transformation approach. We gives spectral analysis of the Lax pair for CLL-NLS equation, and establish a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem, so as to reconstruct the solution $r(z,t)$ of the CLL-NLS equation by solving. Furthermore, the spectral functions are not independent, but enjoy by a compatibility condition, which is the so-called global relation.
We revisit the Helmholts equation in a quarter-plane in the framework of the Riemann-Hilbert approach to linear boundary value problems suggested in late 90s by A. Fokas. We show the role of the Sommerfeld radiation condition in Fokas's scheme.
We consider the Riemann-Hilbert factorization approach to solving the field equations of dimensionally reduced gravity theories. First we prove that functions belonging to a certain class possess a canonical factorization due to properties of the underlying spectral curve. Then we use this result, together with appropriate matricial decompositions, to study the canonical factorization of non-meromorphic monodromy matrices that describe deformations of seed monodromy matrices associated with known solutions. This results in new solutions, with unusual features, to the field equations.
The paper aims at developing the Riemann-Hilbert problem approach to the modified Camassa-Holm (mCH) equation in the case when the solution is assumed to approach a non-zero constant at the both infinities of the space variable. In this case, the spectral problem for the associated Lax pair equation has a continuous spectrum, which allows formulating the inverse spectral problem as a Riemann-Hilbert factorization problem with jump conditions across the real axis. We obtain a representation for the solution of the Cauchy problem for the mCH equation and also a description of certain soliton-typ…
In this paper we study the Fuchsian Riemann-Hilbert (inverse monodromy) problem corresponding to Frobenius structures on Hurwitz spaces. We find a solution to this Riemann-Hilbert problem in terms of integrals of certain meromorphic differentials over a basis of an appropriate relative homology space, study the corresponding monodromy group and compute the monodromy matrices explicitly for various special cases.
We aim to present and analyze a nonlinear nonlocal reverse-spacetime fifth-order scalar Sasa-Satsuma equation, based on a nonlocal $5 \times 5$ matrix AKNS spectral problem. Starting from a nonlocal matrix AKNS spectral problem, local and nonlocal symmetry relations are derived from a group of rotations. A kind of Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated, which allows to generate soliton solutions by using vectors lying in the kernel of the matrix Jost solutions. When reflection coefficients are zeros, the jump matrix is the identity and the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem yields soliton so…
We find a local $(d+1) \times (d+1)$ Riemann-Hilbert problem characterizing the skew-orthogonal polynomials associated to the partition function of the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble of random matrices with a potential function of degree $d$. Our Riemann-Hilbert problem is similar to a local $d \times d$ Riemann-Hilbert problem found by Kuijlaars and McLaughlin characterizing the bi-orthogonal polynomials. This gives more motivation for finding methods to compute asymptotics of high order Riemann-Hilbert problems, and brings us closer to finding asymptotics of the skew-orthogonal polynomials.
We construct rotating extremal black hole and attractor solutions in gravity theories by solving a Riemann-Hilbert problem associated with the Breitenlohner-Maison linear system. By employing a vectorial Riemann-Hilbert factorization method we explicitly factorize the corresponding monodromy matrices, which have second order poles in the spectral parameter. In the underrotating case we identify elements of the Geroch group which implement Harrison-type transformations which map the attractor geometries to interpolating rotating black hole solutions. The factorization method we use yields an ex…
We evaluate explicitly, in terms of the Cauchy data, the constant pre-factor in the large $x$ asymptotics of the Painlevé III tau-function. Our result proves the conjectural formula for this pre-factor obtained recently by O. Lisovyy, Y. Tykhyy, and the first co-author with the help of the recently discovered connection of the Painlevé tau-functions with the Virasoro conformal blocks. Our approach does not use this connection, and it is based on the Riemann-Hilbert method.
On Fredholm Pfaffians and Riemann-Hilbert problems
本文通过规范的辅助Riemann-Hilbert问题计算Fredholm Pfaffians，并推导出Akhiezer-Kac渐近结果。
We consider the gap probability for the Pearcey and Airy processes; we set up a Riemann--Hilbert approach (different from the standard one) whereby the asymptotic analysis for large gap/large time of the Pearcey process is shown to factorize into two independent Airy processes using the Deift-Zhou steepest descent analysis. Additionally we relate the theory of Fredholm determinants of integrable kernels and the theory of isomonodromic tau function. Using the Riemann-Hilbert problem mentioned above we construct a suitable Lax pair formalism for the Pearcey gap probability and re-derive the two …
A new four-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation is first proposed in this work and studied by Riemann-Hilbert approach. Firstly, we derive a Lax pair associated with a $5\times5$ matrix spectral problem for the four-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Then based on the Lax pair, we analyze the spectral problem and the analytical properties of the Jost functions, from which the Riemann-Hilbert problem of the equation is successfully established. Moreover, we obtain the $N$-soliton solutions of the equation by solving the Riemann-Hilbert problem without reflection. Finally, we derive t…
In the application of the Deift-Zhou steepest descent method to the Riemann-Hilbert problem for orthogonal polynomials, a model Riemann-Hilbert problem that appears in the multi-cut case is solved with the use of hyperelliptic theta functions. We present here an alternative approach which uses meromorphic differentials instead of theta functions to construct the solution of the model Riemann-Hilbert problem.
We present an inverse scattering transform approach to the Cauchy problem on the line for the Degasperis--Procesi equation $u_t-u_{txx}+3ωu_x+4uu_x=3u_xu_{xx}+uu_{xxx}$ in the form of an associated Riemann-Hilbert problem. This approach allows us to give a representation of the solution to the Cauchy problem, which can be efficiently used in studying its long-time behavior.
This paper aims to present an application of Riemann-Hilbert approach to treat higher-order nonlinear differential equation that is an eighth-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation arising in an optical fiber. Starting from the spectral analysis of the Lax pair, a Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated. Then by solving the obtained Riemann-Hilbert problem under the reflectionless case, N-soliton solution is generated for the eighth-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Finally, the three-dimensional plots and two-dimensional curves with specific choices of the involved parameters are made to show…
We characterize the biorthogonal polynomials that appear in the theory of coupled random matrices via a Riemann-Hilbert problem. Our Riemann-Hilbert problem is different from the ones that were proposed recently by Ercolani and McLaughlin, Kapaev, and Bertola et al. We believe that our formulation may be tractable to asymptotic analysis.
This is a review of the Riemann-Hilbert approach to the large $N$ asymptotics in random matrix models and its applications. We discuss the following topics: random matrix models and orthogonal polynomials, the Riemann-Hilbert approach to the large $N$ asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials and its applications to the problem of universality in random matrix models, the double scaling limits, the large $N$ asymptotics of the partition function, and random matrix models with external source.
Under investigation in this work is the coupled Hirota system arising in nonlinear fiber. The spectral analysis of the Lax pair is first carried out and a Riemann-Hilbert problem is described. Then in the framework of the obtained Riemann-Hilbert problem with the reflectionless case, N-soliton solution is presented for the coupled Hirota system. Finally, via proper choices of the involved parameters, a few plots are made to exhibit the localized structures and dynamic characteristics of one-soliton solution.
A fifth-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation which describes one-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg ferromagnetic spin chain is under exploration in this paper. Starting from the spectral analysis of the Lax pair, a Riemann-Hilbert problem is set up. After solving the obtained Riemann-Hilbert problem with reflectionless case, we systematically derive multisoliton solutions for the fifth-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation. In addition, the localized structures and dynamic behaviors of one- and two-soliton solutions are shown vividly via a few plots.
We present an inverse scattering transform approach for the equation $u_{txx}-3u_x+3u_xu_{xx}+uu_{xxx}=0$. This equation can be viewed as the short wave model for the Degasperis-Procesi equation or the differentiated Ostrovsky-Vakhnenko equation. The approach is based on an associated Riemann-Hilbert problem, which allows us to give a representation for the classical (smooth) solution, to get the principal term of its long time asymptotics, and also to describe loop soliton solutions.
Two-phase solutions of focusing NLS equation are classically constructed out of an appropriate Riemann surface of genus two, and expressed in terms of the corresponding theta-function. We show here that in a certain limiting regime such solutions reduce to some elementary ones called "Solitons on unstable condensate". This degeneration turns out to be conveniently studied by means of basic tools from the theory of Riemann-Hilbert problems. In particular no acquaintance with Riemann surfaces and theta-function is required for such analysis.
In this work, the inverse scattering transform of the three-component coupled Sasa-Satsuma equation is investigated via the Riemann-Hilbert method. Firstly we consider a Lax pair associated with a $7\times 7$ matrix spectral problem for the equation. Then we present the spectral analysis of the Lax pair, from which a kind of Riemann-Hilbert problem is formulated. Moreover, $N$-soliton solutions to the equation are constructed through a particular Riemann-Hilbert problem with vanishing scattering coefficients. Finally, the dynamics of the soliton solutions are discussed with some graphics.
We prove that matrix Fredholm determinants related to multi-time processes can be expressed in terms of determinants of integrable kernels à la Its-Izergin-Korepin-Slavnov (IIKS) and hence related to suitable Riemann-Hilbert problems, thus extending the known results for the single-time case. We focus on the Airy and Pearcey processes. As an example of applications we re-deduce a third order PDE, found by Adler and van Moerbeke, for the two-time Airy process.
These lectures introduce the method of nonlinear steepest descent for Riemann-Hilbert problems. This method finds use in studying asymptotics associated to a variety of special functions such as the Painlevé equations and orthogonal polynomials, in solving the inverse scattering problem for certain integrable systems, and in proving universality for certain classes of random matrix ensembles. These lectures highlight a few such applications.
A Riemann-Hilbert approach to Fredholm determinants of Hankel composition operators: scalar-valued kernels
本文通过矩阵值Riemann-Hilbert问题刻画一类Hankel复合算子的Fredholm行列式，在核无非可积结构的条件下仅利用Hankel复合性质给出描述，并展示了方法效率、计算秩一扰动行列式及推导Akhiezer-Kac渐近定理。
We consider bordered Riemann surfaces which are biholomorphic to compact Riemann surfaces of genus g with n regions biholomorphic to the disc removed. We define a refined Teichmueller space of such Riemann surfaces and demonstrate that in the case that 2g+2-n>0, this refined Teichmueller space is a Hilbert manifold. The inclusion map from the refined Teichmueller space into the usual Teichmueller space (which is a Banach manifold) is holomorphic. We also show that the rigged moduli space of Riemann surfaces with non-overlapping holomorphic maps, appearing in conformal field theory, is a comple…
We show how the Riemann-Hilbert problem can be used to compute correlation kernels for determinantal point processes arising in different models of asymptotic combinatorics and representation theory. The Whittaker kernel and the discrete Bessel kernel are computed as examples.
We consider matrix functions with certain invariance under inversion in the unit circle. If such a function satisfies a positivity assumption on the unit circle, then only zero partial indices appear in its Riemann-Hilbert (Wiener-Hopf) factorization. It implies the unique solvability of a certain class of Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problems. It includes the ones associated with the inverse scattering transform of the focusing/defocusing integrable discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equations.
We study the asymptotic behavior of Riemann-Hilbert problems (RHP) arising in the AKNS hierarchy of integrable equations. Our analysis is based on the $\dbar$-steepest descent method. We consider RHPs arising from the inverse scattering transform of the AKNS hierarchy with $H^{1,1}(\R)$ initial data. The analysis will be divided into three regions: fast decay region, oscillating region and self-similarity region (the Painlevé region). The resulting formulas can be directly applied to study the long-time asymptotic of the solutions of integrable equations such as NLS, mKdV and their higher-orde…
A new matrix modified Korteweg-de Vries (mmKdV) equation with a $p\times q$ complex-valued potential matrix function is first studied via Riemann-Hilbert approach, which can be reduced to the well-known coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries equations by selecting special potential matrix. Starting from the special analysis for the Lax pair of this equation, we successfully establish a Riemann-Hilbert problem of the equation. By introducing the special conditions of irregularity and reflectionless case, some interesting exact solutions, including the $N$-soliton solution formula, of the mmKdV equa…
In this paper matrix orthogonal polynomials in the real line are described in terms of a Riemann--Hilbert problem. This approach provides an easy derivation of discrete equations for the corresponding matrix recursion coefficients. The discrete equation is explicitly derived in the matrix Freud case, associated with matrix quartic potentials. It is shown that, when the initial condition and the measure are simultaneously triangularizable, this matrix discrete equation possesses the singularity confinement property, independently if the solution under consideration is given by recursion coeffic…
In this paper, we study the theory of orthogonal trigonometric polynomials (OTP). We obtain asymptotics of OTP with positive and analytic weight functions by Riemann-Hilbert approach and find they have relations with orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle (OPUC). By the relations and the theory of OPUC, we also get four-terms recurrent formulae, Christoffel-Darboux formula and some properties of zeros for orthogonal trigonometric polynomials.

本文基于Matsuo-Kostov表示将Slavnov重叠转化为Riemann-Hilbert问题，并用最速下降法计算Lieb-Liniger模型重叠，且在自由费米子极限验证其适用性。
This article is firstly a historic review of the theory of Riemann-Hilbert problems with particular emphasis placed on their original appearance in the context of Hilbert's 21st problem and Plemelj's work associated with it. The secondary purpose of this note is to invite a new generation of mathematicians to the fascinating world of Riemann-Hilbert techniques and their modern appearances in nonlinear mathematical physics. We set out to achieve this goal with six examples, including a new proof of the integro-differential Painlevé-II formula of Amir, Corwin, Quastel \cite{ACQ} that enters in t…
A new concept of meromorphic $Σ$-factorization, for Hölder continuous functions defined on a contour $Γ$ that is the pullback of $\dot{\mathbb{R}}$ (or the unit circle) in a Riemann surface $Σ$ of genus 1, is introduced and studied, and its relations with holomorphic $Σ$-factorization are discussed. It is applied to study and solve some scalar Riemann-Hilbert problems in $Σ$ and vectorial Riemann-Hilbert problems in $\mathbb{C}$, including Wiener-Hopf matrix factorization, as well as to study some properties of a class of Toeplitz operators with $2 \times 2$ matrix symbols.
In this paper we studied the double scaling limit of a random unitary matrix ensemble near a singular point where a new cut is emerging from the support of the equilibrium measure. We obtained the asymptotic of the correlation kernel by using the Riemann-Hilbert approach. We have shown that the kernel near the critical point is given by the correlation kernel of a random unitary matrix ensemble with weight $e^{-x^{2ν}}$. This provides a rigorous proof of the previous results of Eynard.
In this article we calculate the dimension of the Hilbert space of Kahler quantization of the moduli space of vortices on a Riemann surface. This dimension is given by the holomorphic Euler characteristic of the quantum line bundle.
This preprint is the introduction of my habilitation thesis for Paris7 university. It is a sumary of a collection of works on the 2 matrix model. In an introduction, 3 different and unequivalent definitions of matrix models are given (convergent model, model with fixed filling fractions on contours, and formal model). Then, a sumary of properties of differential systems satisfied by biorthogonal polynomials, in particular spectral duality and Riemann-Hilbert problem. Then, a section on loop equations and algebraic geometry formulation of the large N expansion. Then, a conjecture for the asympt…
A Riemann-Hilbert Approach to Skew-Orthogonal Polynomials of Symplectic Type
本研究针对偶次正首项系数多项式权函数，通过将斜正交性转化为多重正交性，给出辛型（β=4）斜正交多项式的矩阵Riemann-Hilbert表示，推导了对应Christoffel-Darboux公式与Toda晶格的Lax对。
The present paper gives an overview of the recent developments in the description of critical behavior for Hamiltonian perturbations of hyperbolic and elliptic systems of partial differential equations. It was conjectured that this behavior can be described in terms of distinguished Painlevé transcendents, which are universal in the sense that they are, to some extent, independent of the equation and the initial data. We will consider several examples of well-known integrable equations that are expected to show this type of Painlevé behavior near critical points. The Riemann-Hilbert method is …
In these notes we solve a class of Riemann-Hilbert (inverse monodromy) problems with quasi-permutation monodromy groups which correspond to non-singular branched coverings of $\CP1$. The solution is given in terms of Szegö kernel on the underlying Riemann surface. In particular, our construction provides a new class of solutions of the Schlesinger system. We present some results on explicit calculation of the corresponding tau-function, and describe divisor of zeros of the tau-function (so-called Malgrange divisor) in terms of the theta-divisor on the Jacobi manifold of the Riemann surface. We…
