Rogue Wave for the Benjamin Ono Equation

Perturbation theory for the Benjamin–Ono equation

We develop a perturbation theory for the Benjamin–Ono (BO) equation. This perturbation theory is based on the inverse scattering transform for the BO equation, which was originally developed by Fokas and Ablowitz and recently refined by Kaup and Matsuno. We find the expressions for the variations of the scattering data with respect to the potential, as well as the dual expression for the variat...

Sharp ill-posedness result for the periodic Benjamin-Ono equation

We prove the discontinuity for the weak L(T)-topology of the flowmap associated with the periodic Benjamin-Ono equation. This ensures that this equation is ill-posed in Hs(T) as soon as s < 0 and thus completes exactly the well-posedness result obtained in [12]. AMS Subject Classification : 35B20, 35Q53.

Asymptotic stability of solitons for the Benjamin-Ono equation

In this paper, we prove the asymptotic stability of the family of solitons of the Benjamin-Ono equation in the energy space. The proof is based on a Liouville property for solutions close to the solitons for this equation, in the spirit of [16], [18]. As a corollary of the proofs, we obtain the asymptotic stability of exact multi-solitons.

N ov 2 00 4 NONLINEAR WAVE INTERACTIONS FOR THE BENJAMIN - ONO EQUATION

We study the interaction of suitable small and high frequency waves evolving by the flow of the Benjamin-Ono equation. As a consequence, we prove that the flow map of the Benjamin-Ono equation can not be uniformly continuous on bounded sets of H s (R) for s > 0.
