We investigate the equation $(u_t + (f(u))_x)_x = f''(u) (u_x)^2/2$ where $f(u)$ is a given smooth function. Typically $f(u)= u^2/2$ or $u^3/3$. This equation models unidirectional and weakly nonlinear waves for the variational wave…

The "separant" of the evolution equation u_t=F, where F is some differentiable function of the derivatives of u up to order m is the partial derivative \partial F}/{\partial u_m} where u_m={\partial^m u}/{\partial x}^m. We apply the formal…
In this article, we consider parabolic equations of the type $$\partial_t u(x,t)=\Delta u(x,t) - Bu(x,t) + F(u(x,t))$$ where $u$ is valued in a transverse Hilbert space $Y$ and $B$ is a positive self-adjoint operator on $Y$, allowing a…
