Abstract

Based on a 4×4 matrix spectral problem, an AKNS soliton hierarchy with six potentials is generated. Associated with this spectral problem, a kind of Riemann-Hilbert problems is formulated for a six-component system of mKdV equations in the resulting AKNS hierarchy. Soliton solutions to the considered system of coupled mKdV equations are computed, through a reduced Riemann-Hilbert problem where an identity jump matrix is taken.
