Relying on the analysis of characteristics, we prove the uniqueness of conservative solutions to the variational wave equation $u_{tt}-c(u) (c(u)u_x)_x=0$. Given a solution $u(t,x)$, even if the wave speed $c(u)$ is only H\"older continuous…

We prove the uniqueness of weak solutions to the critical defocusing wave equation in 3D under a local energy inequality condition. More precisely, we prove the uniqueness of $ u \in L^\infty\_t(\dot{H}^{1})\cap \dot{W}^{1,\infty}\_t(L^2)$,…

The wave equation $\left(\partial_{tt} - c^2 \Delta_x\right) u(x,t) = e^{-t} f(x,t)$ is shown to have a unique solution if $u$ and its partial derivatives in $x$ are in $L^2(e^{-t})$ on the cone, and the solution can be explicit given in…

We show the existence, regularity and analyticity of solitary waves associated to the following equation \begin{eqnarray*} (u_t+u^{p}u_x+ \mathcal H\partial_x^2u+ \lambda \mathcal H\partial_y^2u)_x +\mu u_{yy}=0, \end{eqnarray*} where…

Starting with the periodic waves earlier constructed for the gravity Whitham equation, we parameterise the solution curves through relative wave height, and use a limiting argument to obtain a full family of solitary waves. The resulting…

We construct solitary waves for the fractional Korteweg-De Vries type equation $u_t + (\Lambda^{-s}u + u^2)_x = 0$, where $\Lambda^{-s}$ denotes the Bessel potential operator $(1 + |D|^2)^{-\frac{s}{2}}$ for $s \in (0,\infty)$. The approach…
