This paper deals with the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions of linear initial boundary value problems with constant coefficients on the half-line and on finite intervals. We assume that the boundary data are periodic in time and we investigate whether the solution becomes time-periodic after sufficiently long time. Using Fokas’ transformation method, we show that, for the linear Schrödinger equation, the linear heat equation and the linearized KdV equation on the half-line, the solutions indeed become periodic for large time. However, for the same linear Schrödinger equation on a finite interval, we show that the solution, in general, is not asymptotically periodic; actually, the asymptotic behaviour of the solution depends on the commensurability of the time period T of the boundary data with the square of the length of the interval over π .

We investigate two different initial boundary-value problems for derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The boundary conditions are Dirichlet or generalized periodic ones. We propose a two-step algorithm for numerical solving of this problem. The method consists of Bäcklund type transformations and difference scheme. We prove the convergence and stability in C and H1 norms of Crank–Nicolson finite difference scheme for the transformed problem. There are no restrictions between space and time grid steps. For the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the proposed numerical algorithm converges and is stable in C1 norm.

We study an initial-boundary value problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, a simple mathematical model for the interaction between electromagnetic waves and a plasma layer. We prove a global existence and uniqueness theorem and establish a Galerkin method for solving numerically the problem.
