For generalized KdV models with polynomial nonlinearity, we establish nonlinear smoothing property in $H^s$ for $s>\frac{1}{2}$. Such smoothing effect persists globally, provided that the $H^1$ norm does not blow up in finite time. More…

We establish a smoothing result for the generalized KdV (gKdV) on the torus with polynomial non-linearity, damping, and forcing that matches the smoothing level for the gKdV at $H^1$. As a consequence, we establish the existence of a global…

We prove global well-posedness of the Korteweg--de Vries equation for initial data in the space $H^{-1}(R)$. This is sharp in the class of $H^{s}(R)$ spaces. Even local well-posedness was previously unknown for $s<-3/4$. The proof is based…
The initial value problems for the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and modified KdV (mKdV) equations under periodic and decaying boundary conditions are considered. These initial value problems are shown to be globally well-posed in all $L^2$-based…
In this paper we prove that in appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces, in the case of no bound states, the scattering map of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) on $\mathbb R$ is a perturbation of the Fourier transform by a regularizing operator. As…
We address two pressing questions in the theory of the Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) equation. First, we show the uniqueness of solutions to KdV that are merely bounded, without any further decay, regularity, periodicity, or almost periodicity…
This paper considers the damped periodic Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in the presence of a white-in-time and spatially smooth stochastic source term and studies the long-time behavior of solutions. We show that the integrals of motion…
We consider the Korteweg-de Vries Equation (KdV) on the real line, and prove that the smooth solutions satisfy a-priori local in time $H^s$ bound in terms of the $H^s$ size of the initial data for $s\geq -4/5$.
We study special regularity properties of solutions to the initial-boundary value problem associated with the Korteweg-de Vries equations posed on the positive half-line. In particular, for initial data $u_0 \in…
