Infinite propagation speed for the Degasperis-Procesi equation (Q2569919): Difference between revisions

The author studies the Degasperis-Procesi equation given by \[ u_{t}-u_{txx}+4uu_{x}=3u_{x}u_{xx}+uu_{xxx},\;t\geq 0,\;x\in \mathbb{R}. \] He proves that if the initial data \(u_{0}\neq 0\) is a function in \(\mathbb{H} ^{4}(\mathbb{R)}\) with compact support then the classical solution \(u(.,t)\) has not this property.
