On decay properties and asymptotic behavior of solutions to a non-local perturbed KdV equation

Abstract:

We consider the KdV equation with an additional non-local perturbation term defined through the Hilbert transform, also known as the OST-equation. We prove that the solutions u(t,x) have a pointwise decay in spatial variable:[Formula presented], provided that the initial data has the same decaying and moreover we find the asymptotic profile of u(t,x) when |x|→+∞. Next, we show that decay rate given above is optimal when the initial data is not a zero-mean function and in this case we derive an estimate from below [Formula presented] for |x| large enough. In the case when the initial datum is a zero-mean function, we prove that the decay rate above is improved to [Formula presented] for 0<ε≤1. Finally, we study the local-well posedness of the OST-equation in the framework of Lebesgue spaces.
