Global well-posedness for the KP-I equation on the background of a non localized solution

Analysis of PDEs 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

We prove that the Cauchy problem for the KP-I equation is globally well-posed for initial data which are localized perturbations (of arbitrary size) of a non-localized (i.e. not decaying in all directions) traveling wave solution (e.g. the KdV line solitary wave or the Zaitsev solitary waves which are localized in xx and yy periodic or conversely).
