Stability of periodic waves in Hamiltonian PDEs

Sylvie Benzoni-Gavage, Pascal Noble, L. Miguel Rodrigues (2013)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

Partial differential equations endowed with a Hamiltonian structure, like the Korteweg–de Vries equation and many other more or less classical models, are known to admit rich families of periodic travelling waves. The stability theory for these waves is still in its infancy though. The issue has been tackled by various means. Of course, it is always possible to address stability from the spectral point of view. However, the link with nonlinear stability  - in fact, orbital stability, since we are...

Stabilization of the Kawahara equation with localized damping

Carlos F. Vasconcellos, Patricia N. da Silva (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the stabilization of global solutions of the Kawahara (K) equation in a bounded interval, under the effect of a localized damping mechanism. The Kawahara equation is a model for small amplitude long waves. Using multiplier techniques and compactness arguments we prove the exponential decay of the solutions of the (K) model. The proof requires of a unique continuation theorem and the smoothing effect of the (K) equation on the real line, which are proved in this work.

The homogeneous balance of undetermined coefficients method and its application

Yi Wei, Xin-Dang He, Xiao-Feng Yang (2016)

Open Mathematics

The homogeneous balance of undetermined coefficients method is firstly proposed to solve such nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), the balance numbers of which are not positive integers. The proposed method can also be used to derive more general bilinear equation of nonlinear PDEs. The Eckhaus equation, the KdV equation and the generalized Boussinesq equation are chosen to illustrate the validity of our method. The proposed method is also a standard and computable method, which can...
