TL;DR
This work develops an exact algebro-geometric (finite-gap) solution to the modified Camassa-Holm equation with linear dispersion by formulating and solving a Riemann-Hilbert problem tied to a high-genus hyperelliptic curve. It employs a Baker–Akhiezer function and a g-function mechanism to produce theta-function representations on a genus $4(p+q)-1$ curve, yielding explicit $u^{(AG)}(y,t;\mathbf{P}_1,\mathbf{P}_2,\mathbf{A},\mathbf{B})$ and $x^{(AG)}(y,t;\mathbf{P}_1,\mathbf{P}_2,\mathbf{A},\mathbf{B})$ via reconstruction formulas. The paper provides two solvable RH formulations, including an alternative $\tilde{g}$-based approach, both leading to the same algebro-geometric solutions up to additive constants, thereby enabling exact finite-gap solutions and setting groundwork for long-time asymptotics and soliton-gas analyses in the mCH hierarchy. Extending prior ω=0 results to the ω>0 case, this work highlights the central role of hyperelliptic curves and theta functions in the algebro-geometric structure of the mCH equation and its Lax pair.
Abstract
This paper aims at providing an exact algebro-geometric solution of the modified Camassa-Holm (mCH) equation derived from hyperelliptic curves in $4(p+q)-1$ genus. To achieve this goal, we construct the Riemann-Hilbert problems cosponsoring to the mCH equation, which can be solved exactly by the Baker-Akhiezer function. Then the precise expression of the algebro-geometric solution of the mCH equation can be obtained through reconstructed formula.
