Abstract

Uniform estimates for the decay structure of the nn-soliton solution of the Korteweg-deVries equation are obtained. The KdV equation, linearized at the nn-soliton solution is investigated in a class \WW\WW consisting of sums of travelling waves plus an exponentially decaying residual term. An analog of the kernel of the time-independent equation is proposed, leading to solvability conditions on the inhomogeneous term. Estimates on the inversion of the linearized KdV equation at the nn-soliton are obtained.
