General soliton solutions for the complex reverse space-time nonlocal mKdV equation on a finite background.

Three kinds of Darboux transformations are constructed by means of the loop group method for the complex reverse space-time (RST) nonlocal modified Korteweg–de Vries equation, which are different from that for the P T symmetric (reverse space) and reverse time nonlocal models. The N-periodic, the N-soliton, and the N-breather-like solutions, which are, respectively, associated with real, pure imaginary, and general complex eigenvalues on a finite background are presented in compact determinant forms. Some typical localized wave patterns such as the doubly periodic lattice-like wave, the asymmetric double-peak breather-like wave, and the solitons on singly or doubly periodic waves are graphically shown. The essential differences and links between the complex RST nonlocal equations and their local or P T symmetric nonlocal counterparts are revealed through these explicit solutions and the solving process.
