Trace Formulas in Connection with Scattering Theory for Quasi-Periodic Background
We investigate trace formulas for Jacobi operators which are trace class
perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators using Krein's spectral
shift theory. In particular we establish the conserved quantities for the
solutions of the Toda hierarchy in this class.Comment: 7 page
Scattering Theory for Jacobi Operators with Steplike Quasi-Periodic Background
We develop direct and inverse scattering theory for Jacobi operators with
steplike quasi-periodic finite-gap background in the same isospectral class. We
derive the corresponding Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equation and find minimal
scattering data which determine the perturbed operator uniquely. In addition,
we show how the transmission coefficients can be reconstructed from the
eigenvalues and one of the reflection coefficients.Comment: 14 page
Inverse scattering transform for the Toda hierarchy with steplike finite-gap backgrounds
We provide a rigorous treatment of the inverse scattering transform for the
entire Toda hierarchy for solutions which are asymptotically close to (in
general) different finite-gap solutions as .Comment: 10 page
Scattering Theory for Jacobi Operators with General Step-Like Quasiperiodic Background
We develop direct and inverse scattering theory for Jacobi operators with step-like coeffcients which are asymptotically close to different finite-gap quasiperiodic coeffcients on di erent sides. We give a complete characterization of the scattering data, which allow unique solvability of the inverse scattering problem in the class of perturbations with finite first moment
Scattering theory with finite-gap backgrounds: Transformation operators and characteristic properties of scattering data
We develop direct and inverse scattering theory for Jacobi operators (doubly
infinite second order difference operators) with steplike coefficients which
are asymptotically close to different finite-gap quasi-periodic coefficients on
different sides. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the scattering
data in the case of perturbations with finite second (or higher) moment.Comment: 23 page
On the Cauchy Problem for the Korteweg-de Vries Equation with Steplike Finite-Gap Initial Data I. Schwartz-Type Perturbations
We solve the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg-de Vries equation with initial
conditions which are steplike Schwartz-type perturbations of finite-gap
potentials under the assumption that the respective spectral bands either
coincide or are disjoint.Comment: 29 page
Long-Time Asymptotics of Perturbed Finite-Gap Korteweg-de Vries Solutions
We apply the method of nonlinear steepest descent to compute the long-time
asymptotics of solutions of the Korteweg--de Vries equation which are decaying
perturbations of a quasi-periodic finite-gap background solution. We compute a
nonlinear dispersion relation and show that the plane splits into
soliton regions which are interlaced by oscillatory regions, where
is the number of spectral gaps.
In the soliton regions the solution is asymptotically given by a number of
solitons travelling on top of finite-gap solutions which are in the same
isospectral class as the background solution. In the oscillatory region the
solution can be described by a modulated finite-gap solution plus a decaying
dispersive tail. The modulation is given by phase transition on the isospectral
torus and is, together with the dispersive tail, explicitly characterized in
terms of Abelian integrals on the underlying hyperelliptic curve.Comment: 45 pages. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Trace Formulas for Schroedinger Operators in Connection with Scattering Theory for Finite-Gap Backgrounds
We investigate trace formulas for one-dimensional Schroedinger operators
which are trace class perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators
using Krein's spectral shift theory. In particular, we establish the conserved
quantities for the solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy in this class
and relate them to the reflection coefficients via Abelian integrals on the
underlying hyperelliptic Riemann surface.Comment: 14 page
