N-soliton solution for a higher-order Chen–Lee–Liu equation with nonzero boundary conditions
Abstract
In this paper, the Riemann–Hilbert approach is applied to investigate a higher-order Chen–Lee–Liu equation with third-order dispersion and quintic nonlinearity terms. Based on the analytical, symmetric and asymptotic properties of eigenfunctions, a generalized Riemann–Hilbert problem associated with Chen–Lee–Liu equation with nonzero boundary conditions is constructed. Further, the N-soliton solution is found by solving the generalized Riemann–Hilbert problem. As an illustrative example, two kinds of one-soliton solutions with different forms of parameters are obtained.
