Bifurcations in the Generalized Korteweg–de Vries Equation

We study the generalized Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation and the Korteweg–de Vries–Burgers (KdVB) equation with periodic in the spatial variable boundary conditions. For various values of parameters, in a sufficiently small neighborhood of the zero equilibrium state we construct asymptotics of periodic solutions and invariant tori. Separately we consider the case when the stability spectrum of the zero solution contains a countable number of roots of the characteristic equation. In this case we state a special nonlinear boundary-value problem which plays the role of a normal form and determines the dynamics of the initial problem.

The Initial-Boundary Value Problem for the Korteweg–de Vries Equation

We prove local well-posedness of the initial-boundary value problem for the Korteweg–de Vries equation on right half-line, left half-line, and line segment, in the low regularity setting. This is accomplished by introducing an analytic family of boundary forcing operators.

An Initial-Boundary Value Problem for the Korteweg–de Vries Equation with Dominant Surface Tension

We consider the initial-boundary value problem (IBVP) for the Korteweg–de Vries equation with zero boundary conditions at x=0 and arbitrary smooth decreasing initial data. We prove that the solution of this IBVP can be found by solving two linear inverse scattering problems (SPs) on two different spectral planes. The first SP is associated with the KdV equation. The second SP is self-conjugate and its scattering function is found in terms of entries of the scattering matrix s(k) for the first SP. Knowing the scattering function, we solve the second inverse SP for finding the potential self-conjugate matrix. Consequently, the unknown object entering coefficients in the system of evolution equations for s(k,t) is found. Then, the time-dependent scattering matrix s(k,t) is expressed in terms of s(k)=s(k,0) and of solutions of the self-conjugate SP. Knowing s(k,t), we find the solution of the IBVP in terms of the solution of the Gelfand–Levitan–Marchenko equation in the first inverse SP.     

On the Absence of Global Solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries Equation

This paper is devoted to the problem of existence of global solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries equation. For certain initial–boundary problems for the Korteweg–de Vries equation, we obtain necessary conditions of existence (in other words, sufficient conditions of nonexistence) of global solutions.     

Painlevé analysis and exact solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries equation with a source

We consider the Korteweg–de Vries equation with a source. The source depends on the solution as polynomials with constant coefficients. Using the Painlevé test we show that the generalized Korteweg–de Vries equation is not integrable by the inverse scattering transform. However there are some exact solutions of the generalized Korteweg–de Vries equation for two forms of the source. We present these exact solutions.     

Compactons and Riemann Waves of an Extended Modified Korteweg–de Vries Equation with Nonlinear Dispersion

The K(f ^m , g ⁿ ) equation is studied, which generalizes the modified Korteweg–de Vries equation K(u³, u¹) and the Rosenau–Hyman equation K(u ^m , u ⁿ ) to other dependences of nonlinearity and dispersion on the solution. The considered functions f(u) and g(u) can be linear or can have the form of a smoothed step. It is found numerically that, depending on the form of nonlinearity and dispersion, the given equation has compacton and kovaton solutions, Riemann-wave solutions, and oscillating wave packets of two types. It is shown that the interaction between solutions of all found types occurs with the preservation of their parameters.     

An Initial Boundary-Value Problem in a Half-Strip for the Korteweg–De Vries Equation in Fractional-Order Sobolev Spaces

Abstract

An initial boundary-value problem in a half-strip with one boundary condition for the Korteweg–de Vries equation is considered and results on global well-posedness of this problem are established in Sobolev spaces of various orders, including fractional. Initial and boundary data satisfy natural (or close to natural) conditions, originating from properties of solutions of a corresponding initial-value problem for a linearized KdV equation. An essential part of the study is the investigation of special solutions of a “boundary potential” type for this linearized KdV equation.     

A Nonhomogeneous Boundary-Value Problem for the Korteweg–de Vries Equation Posed on a Finite Domain

Abstract

Studied here is an initial- and boundary-value problem for the Korteweg–de Vries equation posed on a bounded interval with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. This particular problem arises naturally in certain circumstances when the equation is used as a model for waves and a numerical scheme is needed. It is shown here that this initial-boundary-value problem is globally well-posed in the L ₂-based Sobolev space H  ^s (0, 1) for any s ≥ 0. In addition, the mapping that associates to appropriate initial- and boundary-data the corresponding solution is shown to be analytic as a function between appropriate Banach spaces.     

Decay of Solutions to Damped Korteweg–de Vries Type Equation

In the present paper we establish results concerning the decay of the energy related to the damped Korteweg–de Vries equation posed on infinite domains. We prove the exponential decay rates of the energy when a initial value problem and a localized dissipative mechanism are in place. If this mechanism is effective in the whole line, we get a similar result in H ^k -level, k∈ℕ. In addition, the decay of the energy regarding a initial boundary value problem posed on the right half-line, is obtained considering convenient a smallness condition on the initial data but a more general dissipative effect.     

Complexiton solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries equation with self-consistent sources

Complexiton solutions to the Korteweg–de Vires equation with self-consistent sources are presented. The basic technique adopted is the Darboux transformation. The resulting solutions provide evidence that soliton equations with self-consistent sources can have complexiton solutions, in addition to soliton, positon and negaton solutions. This also implies that soliton equations with self-consistent sources possess some kind of analytical characteristics that linear differential equations possess and brings ideas toward classification of exact explicit solutions of nonlinear integrable differential equations.

Method of Immersion and Its Parametric Realization for the Korteweg–De Vries Equation

By using the method of immersion (imbedding) proposed in the author's previous works, we describe the space S of initial conditions of the Cauchy problem for the general differential Korteweg–de Vries equation. The space S is called a stationary soliton Korteweg–de Vries manifold because "stationary projections" of solitons fall into the space S. In addition, we introduce the notion of a space of Sturm–Liouville operators over a soliton Korteweg–de Vries manifold. For real functions and parameters, we formulate the spectral theorem for a commutative Lax pair over a real stationary soliton Korteweg–de Vries manifold.     

On Integration of Korteweg–de Vries Equation in a Class of Rapidly Decreasing Complex-Valued Functions

We apply the inverse scattering method to the integration of the Korteweg–de Vries equation with a self-consistent source in the class of complex-valued rapidly decreasing functions.     

On the Trace-Class Property of Hankel Operators Arising in the Theory of the Korteweg–de Vries Equation

The trace-class property of Hankel operators (and their derivatives with respect to the parameter) with strongly oscillating symbol is studied. The approach used is based on Peller’s criterion for the trace-class property of Hankel operators and on the precise analysis of the arising triple integral using the saddle-point method. Apparently, the obtained results are optimal. They are used to study the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg–de Vries equation. Namely, a connection between the smoothness of the solution and the rate of decrease of the initial data at positive infinity is established.
