contents The rigorous asymptotic analysis for the Riemann problem of the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger hydrodynamics is a very interesting problem with many challenges. To date, the full analysis of this problem remains open. In this work, the long-time asymptotics for the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation with general step-like initial data is investigated by the Whitham modulation theory and Riemann-Hilbert formulation. The Whitham modulation theory shows that there are six cases for the initial discontinuity problem according to the orders of the Riemann invariants. The leading-order terms and the corresponding error estimates for each region of the six cases are formulated by the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method for oscillatory Riemann-Hilbert problems. It is demonstrated that the long-time asymptotic solutions match very well with the results from Whitham modulation theory and the numerical simulations.
