The unified transformation approach to higher-order Gerdjikov-Ivanov model and Riemann-Hilbert problem

Abstract

In this paper, a higher-order Gerdjikov-Ivanov (HOGI) model with cubic dispersion and quintic nonlinearity terms will be researched, which is a 3-order flow model of the well known GI system. The initial-boundary value problems of the HOGI model on the half-line will be given by the unified transformation approach. The solutions of the HOGI model will be expressed by forms of the solutions of a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP). The relevant jump matrices of the RHP will be explicitly found by the two scattering matrices s(ϵ) and S(ϵ). Finally, the so-called global relation will be given.
