Abstract
In a recent paper, we presented scenarios of long-time asymptotics for the solution of the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation with initial data approaching plane waves of the form and at minus and plus infinity, respectively. In the shock case some scenarios include sectors of genus 3, that is, sectors , , where the leading term of the asymptotics is expressed in terms of hyperelliptic functions attached to a Riemann surface of genus 3. The present paper deals with the asymptotic analysis in a transition zone between two genus 3 sectors. The leading term is expressed in terms of elliptic functions attached to a Riemann surface of genus 1. A central step in the derivation is the construction of a local parametrix in a neighborhood of two merging branch points.
