Abstract
The authors study the Cauchy problem for the focusing nonlinear Kundu-Eckhaus (KE for short) equation and construct the long time asymptotic expansion of its solution in fixed space-time cone with C(x1, x2, v1, v2) = {(x, t) ∈ ℝ2 : x = x0 + vt, x0 ∈ [x1, x2], v ∈ [v1, v2]}. By using the inverse scattering transform, Riemann-Hilbert approach and \(\overline{\partial}\) steepest descent method, they obtain the lone time asymptotic behavior of the solution, at the same time, they obtain the solitons in the cone compare with the all N-soliton the residual error up to order \(\cal{O}(t^{-{3\over 4}})\).
