The Davey-Stewartson I Equation on the Quarter Plane with Homogeneous   Dirichlet Boundary Conditions
  Dromions are exponentially localised coherent structures supported by nonlinear integrable evolution equations in two spatial dimensions.In the study of initial-value problems on the plane, such solutions occur only if one imposes nontrivial boundary conditions at infinity, a situation of dubious physical significance. However it is established here that dromions appear naturally in the study of boundary-value problems. In particular, it is shown that the long time asymptotics of the solution of the Davey-Stewartson I equation in the quarter plane with arbitrary initial conditions and with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions is dominated by dromions. The case of non-zero Dirichlet boundary conditions is also discussed.
