Lower bounds on the radius of spatial analyticity for the KdV equation (Q517423): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the KdV equation for initial conditions which are analytic in a strip in the complex plane of width \(\sigma_0\). They prove that the associated solution remains analytic in a strip of width \(\sigma(t)\) for every \(t \geq 0\) with \(\sigma(t) \geq \min(\sigma_0,c t^{-(4/3+\epsilon)})\) for every fixed \(\epsilon > 0\). The result improves a previous result from \textit{J. L. Bona} et al. [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Anal. Non Linéaire 22, No. 6, 783--797 (2005; Zbl 1095.35039)].
