Semiclassical Asymptotics of the Focusing Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation for Square Barrier Initial Data

The small dispersion limit of the focusing nonlinear Schroödinger equation (fNLS) exhibits a rich structure with rapid oscillations at microscopic scales. Due to the non self-adjoint scattering problem associated to fNLS, very few rigorous results exist in the semiclassical limit. The asymptotics fo...
