Soliton solutions and a bi-Hamiltonian structure of the fifth-order nonlocal reverse-spacetime Sasa-Satsuma-type hierarchy via the Riemann-Hilbert approach

Abstract

<p>Our objective is to explore the intricacies of a nonlinear nonlocal fifth-order scalar Sasa-Satsuma equation in reverse spacetime which is rooted in a nonlocal $ 5 \times 5 $ matrix AKNS spectral problem. Starting with this spectral problem, we derive both local and nonlocal symmetry relations through rotations within a defined group. We then formulate a specific type of Riemann-Hilbert problem, facilitating the generation of soliton solutions. These solutions are generated by utilizing vectors that reside in the kernel of the matrix Jost solutions. Under the condition where reflection coefficients are null, the jump matrix reduces to the identity, leading to soliton solutions via the corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem. The explicit formulas of these soliton solutions enable a comprehensive exploration of their dynamics.</p>
