Abstract

We study the self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs equation on a compact Riemann surface with the Neumann boundary condition. In the previous paper, we show that the Chern-Simons Higgs equation with parameter λ > 0 has at least two solutions (u 1 λ , u 2 λ ) for λ sufficiently large, which satisfy that u 1 λ → −u 0 almost everywhere as λ → ∞, and that u 2 λ → −∞ almost everywhere as λ → ∞, where u 0 is a (negative) Green function on M. In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions as λ → ∞, and prove that u 2 λ \(\overline {u_\lambda ^2 } \) converges to a solution of the Kazdan-Warner equation if the geodesic curvature of the boundary ∂M is negative, or the geodesic curvature is nonpositive and the Gauss curvature is negative where the geodesic curvature is zero.
