A broad conjecture, formulated by the authors in earlier work, reads as follows: "Cubic defocusing dispersive one dimensional flows with small initial data have global dispersive solutions". Notably, here smallness is only assumed in $H^s$…
Compactons are compactly supported solitary waves for nondissipative evolution equations with nonlinear dispersion. In applications, these model equations are accompanied by dissipative terms which can be treated as small perturbations. We…
