We prove reducibility of a class of quasi-periodically forced linear equations of the form \[ \partial_tu-\partial_x\circ (1+a(ωt, x))u+\mathcal{Q}(ωt)u=0,\quad x\in\mathbb{T}:=\mathbb{R}/2π\mathbb{Z}, \] where $u=u(t,x)$, $a$ is a small, $C^{\infty}$ function, $\mathcal{Q}$ is a pseudo differential operator of order $-1$, provided that $ω\in\mathbb{R}^ν$ satisfies appropriate non-resonance conditions. Such PDEs arise by linearizing the Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equation at a small amplitude quasi-periodic function. Our work provides a first fundamental step in developing a KAM theory for perturbations of the DP equation on the circle. Following \cite{Airy}, our approach is based on two main points: first a reduction in orders based on an Egorov type theorem then a KAM diagonalization scheme. In both steps the key difficulites arise from the asymptotically linear dispersion law. In view of the application to the nonlinear context we prove sharp \emph{tame} bounds on the diagonalizing change of variables.
We remark that the strategy and the techniques proposed are applicable for proving reducibility of more general classes of linear pseudo differential first order operators.
We consider the general Degasperis-Procesi model of shallow water out-flows. This six parametric family of conservation laws contains, in particular, KdV, Benjamin-Bona-Mahony, Camassa-Holm, and Degasperis-Procesi equations. The main result consists of criterions which guarantee the existence of solitary wave solutions: solitons and peakons ("peaked solitons").
We consider the general Degasperis-Procesi model of shallow water out-flows. This fife parametric family of conservation laws contains, in particular, KdV, Camassa-Holm, and Degasperis-Procesi equations. The main result consists of a criterion which guarantees the existence of a smooth soliton type solution. We discuss also the scenario of soliton interaction for this model in the nonintegrable case.
In this paper, we prove an orbital stability result for the Degasperis-Procesi peakon with respect to perturbations having a momentum density that is first negative and then positive. This leads to the orbital stability of the antipeakon-peakon profile with respect to such perturbations.
In the paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for a generalized Degasperis-Procesi equation. We prove that the data-to-solution map is not uniformly continuous.
In this paper, we obtain the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of solution to the Degasperis-Procesi equation in $B^1_{\infty,1}(\R)$. Moreover, we prove that the data-to-solution of this equation is continuous but not uniformly continuous in $B^1_{\infty,1}$.
The Degasperis-Procesi equation is an approximating model of shallow-water wave propagating mainly in one direction to the Euler equations. Such a model equation is analogous to the Camassa-Holm approximation of the two-dimensional incompressible and irrotational Euler equations with the same asymptotic accuracy, and is integrable with the bi-Hamiltonian structure. In the present study, we establish existence and spectral stability results of localized smooth solitons to the Degasperis-Procesi equation on the real line. The stability proof relies essentially on refined spectral analysis of the…
This paper is concerned with global existence and blow-up phenomena for two-component Degasperis-Procesi system and two-component b-family system. The strategy relies on our observation on new conservative quantities of these systems. Several new global existence results and a new blowup result of strong solutions to the two-component Degasperis- Procesi system and the two-component b-family system are presented by using these new conservative quantities.
In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for the two component Degasperis-Procesi equation in critical Besov space $B^1_{\infty,1}(\mathbb R)$. By presenting a new construction of initial data, we proved the norm inflation of the corresponding solutions in $B^1_{\infty,1}(\mathbb R)$ and hence ill-posedness. This is quite different from the local well-posedness result for the Degasperis-Procesi equation in critical Besov space $B^1_{\infty,1}(\mathbb R)$ due to the coupled structure of density function.
We consider the non-local formulation of the Degasperis-Procesi equation $u_t+uu_x+L(\frac{3}{2}u^2)_x=0$, where $L$ is the non-local Fourier multiplier operator with symbol $m(ξ)=(1+ξ^2)^{-1}$. We show that all $L^\infty$, pointwise travelling-wave solutions are bounded above by the wave-speed and that if the maximal height is achieved they are peaked at those points, otherwise they are smooth. For sufficiently small periods we find the highest, peaked, travelling-wave solution as the limiting case at the end of the main bifurcation curve of $P$-periodic solutions. The results imply that the …
We improve the decay argument by [Bona and Li, J. Math. Pures Appl., 1997] for solitary waves of general dispersive equations and illustrate it in the proof for the exponential decay of solitary waves to steady Degasperis-Procesi equation in the nonlocal formulation. In addition, we give a method which confirms the symmetry of solitary waves of the maximum height. Finally, we discover how the symmetric structure is connected to the steady structure of solutions to the Degasperis-Procesi equation, and give a more intuitive proof for symmetric solutions to be traveling waves. The improved argume…
We prove that the peakons are asymptotically H 1-stable, under the flow of the Degasperis-Procesi equation, in the class of functions with a momentum density that belongs to M + (R). The key argument is a rigidity result for uniformly in time exponentially decaying global solutions that is shared by the Holm-Staley b-family of equations for b $\ge$ 1. This extends previous results obtained for the Camassa-Holm equation (b = 2).
We consider the dispersive Degasperis-Procesi equation $u_t-u_{x x t}-\mathtt{c} u_{xxx}+4 \mathtt{c} u_x-u u_{xxx}-3 u_x u_{xx}+4 u u_x=0$ with $\mathtt{c}\neq 0$. In \cite{Deg} the authors proved that this equation possesses infinitely many conserved quantities. We prove that, in a neighborhood of the origin, there are infinitely many of such constants of motion which control the Sobolev norms and which are analytic in a neighborhood of the origin of some $H^s$ Sobolev space, both on $\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{T}$. By the analysis of these conserved quantities we deduce a result of global wel…
We develop KAM theory close to an elliptic fixed point for quasi-linear Hamiltonian perturbations of the dispersive Degasperis-Procesi equation on the circle. The overall strategy in KAM theory for quasi-linear PDEs is based on Nash-Moser nonlinear iteration, pseudo differential calculus and normal form techniques. In the present case the complicated symplectic structure, the weak dispersive effects of the linear flow and the presence of strong resonant interactions require a novel set of ideas. The main points are to exploit the integrability of the unperturbed equation, to look for special w…
The Degasperis-Procesi equation is the integrable Camassa-Holm-type model which is an asymptotic approximation for the unidirectional propagation of shallow water waves. This work establishes the orbital stability of localized smooth solitary waves to the Desgasperis-Procesi (DP) equation on the real line. %extending our previous work on their spectral stability \cite{LLW}. The main difficulty stems from the fact that the translation symmetry for the DP equation gives rise to a conserved quantity equivalent to the $L^2$-norm, which by itself can not bound the higher-order nonlinear terms in th…
The Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equation is an integrable Camassa-Holm-type model as an asymptotic approximation for the unidirectional propagation of shallow water waves. This work is to establish the $L^2\cap L^\infty$ orbital stability of a wave train containing $N$ smooth solitons which are well separated. The main difficulties stem from the subtle nonlocal structure of the DP equation. One consequence is that the energy space of the DE equation based on the conserved quantity induced by the translation symmetry is only equivalent to the $L^2$-norm, which by itself can not bound the higher-ord…
We analyze the long-time asymptotics for the Degasperis--Procesi equation on the half-line. By applying nonlinear steepest descent techniques to an associated $3 \times 3$-matrix valued Riemann--Hilbert problem, we find an explicit formula for the leading order asymptotics of the solution in the similarity region in terms of the initial and boundary values.
We derive a precise energy stability criterion for smooth periodic waves in the Degasperis--Procesi (DP) equation. Compared to the Camassa-Holm (CH) equation, the number of negative eigenvalues of an associated Hessian operator changes in the existence region of smooth perodic waves. We utilize properties of the period function with respect to two parameters in order to obtain a smooth existence curve for the family of smooth periodic waves of a fixed period. The energy stability condition is derived on parts of this existence curve which correspond to either one or two negative eigenvalues of…
Popowicz system, as the interacting system of Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi equations, has attracted some attention in recent years. In this paper, we first study the local well-posedness for the cauchy problem of Popowicz system in nonhomogeneous Besov spaces $B^s_{p,r}\times B^s_{p,r}$ with $s> \max\{2, \frac{1}{p}+\frac{3}{2}\}$ or $(s=2, 2\leq p \leq \infty, 1\leq r\leq 2)$. Moreover, a new blow-up criterion and global existence with different initial values are obtained.
We prove norm inflation and hence ill-posedness for a class of shallow water wave equations, such as the Camassa-Holm equation, Degasperis-Procesi equation and Novikov equation etc., in the critical Sobolev space $H^{3/2}$ and even in the Besov space $B^{1+1/p}_{p,r}$ for $p\in [1,\infty], r\in (1,\infty]$. Our results cover both real-line and torus cases (only real-line case for Novikov), solving an open problem left in the previous works (\cite{Danchin2,Byers,HHK}).
It is shown that if $\,u(x,t)\,$ is a solution of the initial value problem for the Camassa-Holm equation which vanishes in an open set $\,Ω\subset \mathbb R\times [0,T]$, then $\,u(x,t)=0,\,(x,t)\in\mathbb R\times [0,T]$. This result also applies to solutions of the initial periodic boundary value problems associated to the Camassa-Holm equation. The argument of proof can be placed in a general setting to extend the above results to a class of non-linear non-local 1-dimensional models which includes the Degasperis-Procesi equation.
This paper is devoted to the study of initial-boundary value problems for time-fractional analogues of Korteweg-de Vries, Benjamin-Bona-Mahony, Burgers, Rosenau, Camassa-Holm, Degasperis-Procesi, Ostrovsky and time-fractional modified Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equations on a bounded domain. Sufficient conditions for the blowing-up of solutions in finite time of aforementioned equations are presented. We also discuss the maximum principle and influence of gradient non-linearity on the global solvability of initial-boundary value problems for the time-fractional Burgers equation. The main tool o…
We prove the existence of highest, cusped, periodic travelling-wave solutions with exact and optimal $ α$-Hölder continuity in a class of fractional negative-order dispersive equations of the form \begin{equation*} u_t + (| \mathrm{D} |^{- α} u + n(u) )_x = 0 \end{equation*} for every $ α\in (0, 1) $ with homogeneous Fourier multiplier $ | \mathrm{D} |^{ - α} $. We tackle nonlinearities $ n(u) $ of the type $ | u |^p $ or $ u | u |^{p - 1} $ for all real $ p > 1 $, and show that when $ n $ is odd, the waves also feature antisymmetry and thus contain inverted cusps. Tools involve detailed point…
