We develop a unified approach to integrating the Whitham modulation equations. Our approach is based on the formulation of the initial value problem for the zero dispersion KdV as the steepest descent for the scalar Riemann-Hilbert problem,…
A method is presented for solving the characteristic initial value problem for the collision and subsequent nonlinear interaction of plane gravitational or gravitational and electromagnetic waves in a Minkowski background. This method…
We consider evolution of wave pulses with formation of dispersive shock waves in framework of fully nonlinear shallow-water equations. Situations of initial elevations or initial dips on the water surface are treated and motion of the…
The Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation with small dispersion is a model for the formation and propagation of dispersive shock waves in one dimension. Dispersive shock waves in KdV are characterized by the appearance of zones of rapid…
We review the theory of modulation equations or Whitham equations for the travelling wave solution of KdV. We then apply the Whitham modulation equations to describe the long-time asymptotics and small dispersion asymptotics of the KdV…
We are concerned with the Cauchy problem for the KdV equation for nonsmooth locally integrable initial profiles q's which are, in a certain sense, essentially bounded from below and q(x)=O(e^{-cx^{{\epsilon}}}),x\rightarrow+\infty, with…
It is proved that approximations which are obtained as solutions of the multiphase Whitham modulation equations stay close to solutions of the original equation on a natural time scale. The class of nonlinear wave equations chosen for the…
The Whitham equation was proposed as a model for surface water waves that combines the quadratic flux nonlinearity $f(u) = \tfrac{1}{2}u^2$ of the Korteweg-de Vries equation and the full linear dispersion relation $\Omega(k) = \sqrt{k\tanh…
We are concerned with numerical approximations of breather solutions for the cubic Whitham equation which arises as a water-wave model for interfacial waves. The model combines strong nonlinearity with the non-local character of the…
In the present contribution we investigate some features of dynamical lattice systems near periodic traveling waves. First, following the formal averaging method of Whitham, we derive modulation systems expected to drive at main order the…
For a one-dimensional mildly quasilinear wave equation given in the upper half-plane, we consider the Cauchy problem. The initial conditions have discontinuity of the first kind at one point. We construct the solution using the method of…
The propagation of water waves of finite depth and flat bottom is studied in the case when the depth is not small in comparison to the wavelength. This propagation regime is complementary to the long-wave regime described by the famous KdV…
We consider linear and quadratic integrals of motion for general variable quadratic Hamiltonians. Fundamental relations between the eigenvalue problem for linear dynamical invariants and solutions of the corresponding Cauchy initial value…
It is a matter of experience that nonlinear waves in dispersive media, propagating primarily in one direction, may appear periodic in small space and time scales, but their characteristics --- amplitude, phase, wave number, etc. --- slowly…
Global smooth solutions to the initial value problem for systems of nonlinear wave equations with multiple propagation speeds will be constructed in the case of small initial data and nonlinearities satisfying the null condition.
In this paper, we study the nonlinear dispersive waves including the rarefaction and dispersive shock waves in the discrete modified KdV equation through the numerical simulations of the dispersive Riemann problems. In particular, we…
The finite element method is applied to obtain numerical solutions to the recently derived nonlinear equation for shallow water wave problem for several cases of bottom shapes. Results for time evolution of KdV solitons and cnoidal waves…
Partial differential equations endowed with a Hamiltonian structure, like the Korteweg--de Vries equation and many other more or less classical models, are known to admit rich families of periodic travelling waves. The stability theory for…
We present the full classification of wave patterns evolving from an initial step-like discontinuity for arbitrary choice of boundary conditions at the discontinuity location in the DNLS equation theory. In this non-convex dispersive…
We prove nonlinear modulational instability for both periodic and localized perturbations of periodic traveling waves for several dispersive PDEs, including the KDV type equations (e.g. the Whitham equation, the generalized KDV equation,…
