This accumulation results in an associated Riemann--Hilbert problem on a number of disjoint intervals. In the case where the jump matrices have specific square-root behavior, we describe an efficient and accurate numerical method to solve this Riemann--Hilbert problem and extract the potential. The keys to the method are, first, the deformation of the Riemann--Hilbert problem, making numerical use of the so-called $g$-function, and, second, the incorporation of endpoint singularities into the chosen basis to discretize and solve the associated singular integral equation.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.02029v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2505.02029v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"efficient-computation-of-soliton-gas","repo_url":"https://github.com/cade-b/kdvsolitongas.jl","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
