Global solution and smoothing effect for a non-local regularization of a hyperbolic equation. (Q1412093)

The authors study the Cauchy problem for the equation \(u_t+f(u)_x+g(u)=0\), where \(f\in C^{\infty} (\mathbb{R})\), \(g\in L^{\infty }(\mathbb{R})\), \(g\) is a non-local operator defined through the Fourier transform \(F(g(u))(p)=| p| ^{\lambda }F(u)(p)\) with \(\lambda \in (1,2\rangle \). The existence and uniqueness of a weak solution, the regularizing effect and the maximum principle is proved.
