On the Inelastic 2-soliton Collision for Gkdv Equations with General Nonlinearity
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the problem of 2-soliton collision for the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations, completing some recent works of Y. Martel and F. Merle [22, 23]. We classify the nonlinearities for which collisions are elastic or inelastic. Our main result states that in the case of small solitons, with one soliton smaller than the other one, the unique nonlinearities allowing a perfectly elastic collision are precisely the integrable cases, namely the quadratic (KdV) and cubic (mKdV) nonlinearities.

On the Exact Solution for Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations
In this study, we aim to construct a traveling wave solution for nonlinear partial differential equations. In this regards, a cosine-function method is used to find and generate the exact solutions for three different types of nonlinear partial differential equations such as general regularized long wave equation (GRLW), general Korteweg-de Vries equation (GKDV) and general equal width wave equ...
متن کاملRefined asymptotics around solitons for gKdV equations
with general C nonlinearity f . Under an explicit condition on f and c > 0, there exists a solution in the energy space H of (0.1) of the type u(t, x) = Qc(x − x0 − ct), called soliton. Stability theory for Qc is well-known. In [11], [14], we have proved that for f(u) = u, p = 2, 3, 4, the family of solitons is asymptotically stable in some local sense in H, i.e. if u(t) is close to Qc (for all...
متن کاملA comparative study between two different methods for solving the general Korteweg–de Vries equation (GKdV)
The family of the KdV equations, the most famous equations embodying both nonlinearity and dispersion, has attracted enormous attention over the years and has served as the model equation for the development of soliton theory. In this paper we present a comparative study between two different methods for solving the general KdV equation, namely the numerical Crank Nicolson method, and the semi-...
متن کاملMulti-soliton solutions for the supercritical gKdV equations
For the L subcritical and critical (gKdV) equations, Martel [11] proved the existence and uniqueness of multi-solitons. Recall that for any N given solitons, we call multi-soliton a solution of (gKdV) which behaves as the sum of these N solitons asymptotically as t → +∞. More recently, for the L supercritical case, Côte, Martel and Merle [4] proved the existence of at least one multi-soliton. I...

We continue our study of the collision of two solitons for the subcritical generalized KdV equations ∂tu+ ∂x(∂ 2 xu+ f(u)) = 0. (0.1) Solitons are solutions o the type u(t, x) = Qc0(x− x0 − c0t) where c0 > 0. In [21], mainly devoted to the case f(u) = u, we have introduced a new framework to understand the collision of two solitons Qc1 , Qc2 for (0.1) in the case c2 ≪ c1 (or equivalently, ‖Qc2‖...
