A Liouville theorem for the critical generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation (Q1569022): Difference between revisions

This paper deals with the equation \[ \begin{cases} u_t+(u_{xx}+ u^5)_x= 0,\quad & (t,x)\in\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}\\ u(x,0)=u_0(x), \quad x\in\mathbb{R}\end{cases} \tag{1} \] for \(u_0\in H^1(\mathbb{R})\). The authors present a surprising rigidity result on the flow of (1) close to a soliton up to scaling and translation. For a proof of this result the authors introduce new techniques which will give a result of asymptotic completeness.
