We propose a new formulation of the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) on the real line, via a gauge transform. While KdV and the gauged equation are equivalent for smooth solutions, the latter is better behaved at low regularity in…

The Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) and various generalized, most often semi- linear versions have been studied for about 50 years. Here, the focus is made on a quasi-linear generalization of the KdV equation, which has a fairly general…
The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with periodic boundary conditions is considered. It is shown that for $H^s$ initial data, $s>-1/2$, and for any $s_1<\min(3s+1,s+1)$, the difference of the nonlinear and linear evolutions is in $H^{s_1}$…
We establish a novel numerical and analytical framework for solving the Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) equation in the negative Sobolev spaces, where classical numerical methods fail due to their reliance on high regularity and inability to…
In this paper we study the effect of rotation on nonlinear wave phenomena in weakly dispersive media modeled by the Korteweg-de Vries equation on the real line. It is well known that smoothing in the case of the KdV equation with periodic…
