We establish unique continuation for various discrete nonlinear wave equations. For example, we show that if two solutions of the Toda lattice coincide for one lattice point in some arbitrarily small time interval, then they coincide…

We study the problem of determining uniquely a time-dependent singular potential $q$, appearing in the wave equation $\partial_t^2u-\Delta_x u+q(t,x)u=0$ in $Q=(0,T)\times\Omega$ with $T>0$ and $\Omega$ a $ \mathcal C^2$ bounded domain of…

We prove existence and uniqueness of distributional, bounded, nonnegative solutions to a fractional filtration equation in ${\mathbb R}^d$. With regards to uniqueness, it was shown even for more general equations in [19] that if two bounded…

In recent times it has been paid attention to the fact that (linear) wave equations admit of "soliton-like" solutions, known as Localized Waves or Non-diffracting Waves, which propagate without distortion in one direction. Such Localized…
