| Abstract: | Motivated by perturbation theory, we prove that the nonlinear part \({H^{*}}\) of the KdV Hamiltonian \({H^{kdv}}\), when expressed in action variables \({I = (I_{n})_{n \geqslant 1}}\), extends to a real analytic function on the positive quadrant \({\ell^{2}_{+}(\mathbb{N})}\) of \({\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N})}\) and is strictly concave near \({0}\). As a consequence, the differential of \({H^{*}}\) defines a local diffeomorphism near 0 of \({\ell_{\mathbb{C}}^{2}(\mathbb{N})}\). Furthermore, we prove that the Fourier-Lebesgue spaces \({\mathcal{F}\mathcal{L}^{s,p}}\) with \({-1/2 \leqslant s \leqslant 0}\) and \({2 \leqslant p < \infty}\), admit global KdV-Birkhoff coordinates. In particular, it means that \({\ell^{2}_+(\mathbb{N})}\) is the space of action variables of the underlying phase space \({\mathcal{F}\mathcal{L}^{-1/2,4}}\) and that the KdV equation is globally in time \({C^{0}}\)-well-posed on \({\mathcal{F}\mathcal{L}^{-1/2,4}}\). |
