Periodic finite-genus solutions of the KdV equation are orbitally stable

چکیده
The stability of periodic solutions of partial differential equations has been an area of increasing interest in the last decade. The KdV equation is known to have large families of periodic solutions that are parameterized by hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. They are generalizations of the famous multi-soliton solutions. We show that all such periodic solutions are orbitally stable with respect to subharmonic perturbations: perturbations that are periodic with period equal to an integer multiple of the period of the underlying solution.

Unconditionally Stable Difference Scheme for the Numerical Solution of Nonlinear Rosenau-KdV Equation
In this paper we investigate a nonlinear evolution model described by the Rosenau-KdV equation. We propose a three-level average implicit finite difference scheme for its numerical solutions and prove that this scheme is stable and convergent in the order of O(τ2 + h2). Furthermore we show the existence and uniqueness of numerical solutions. Comparing the numerical results with other methods in...
متن کاملExplicit multiple singular periodic solutions and singular soliton solutions to KdV equation
Based on some stationary periodic solutions and stationary soliton solutions, one studies the general solution for the relative lax system, and a number of exact solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation are first constructed by the known Darboux transformation, these solutions include double and triple singular periodic solutions as well as singular soliton solutions whose amplitude d...
متن کاملA Riemann–Hilbert problem for the finite-genus solutions of the KdV equation and its numerical solution
We derive a Riemann–Hilbert problem satisfied by the Baker-Akhiezer function for the finite-gap solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. As usual for Riemann-Hilbert problems associated with solutions of integrable equations, this formulation has the benefit that the space and time dependence appears in an explicit, linear and computable way. We make use of recent advances in the nume...
متن کاملThe Toda Hierarchy and the Kdv Hierarchy
McKean and Trubowitz [2] showed that the theory of the KdV equation ∂ ∂t g(x, t) = ∂ 3 ∂x 3 g(x, t) − 6g(x, t) ∂g ∂x (x, t). is intimately related to the geometry of a related hyperelliptic curve of infinite genus, the Bloch spectrum B g t of the operator L g t : ψ → d 2 dx 2 ψ(x) + g(x, t)ψ(x), where g t = g(x, t). As was known classically, B g t is independent of t, when g(x, t) evolves accor...
متن کاملOn the orbital (in)stability of spatially periodic stationary solutions of generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations
In this paper we generalize previous work on the stability of waves for infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems to include those cases for which the skew-symmetric operator J is singular. We assume that J restricted to the orthogonal complement of its kernel has a bounded inverse. With this assumption and some further genericity conditions we show that the linear stability of the wave implies ...
