This paper is concerned with a posteriori error estimates for the Rosenau equation \[ u_t+u_{xxxxt}=f(u)_x \] in \(\Omega\times (0,T]\) subject to the boundary conditions \(u(x,t)=u_x(x,t)=0\) on \(\partial\Omega\times (0,T]\) and \(u(x,0)=u_0(x)\), \(x\in\overline\Omega\). Here \(\Omega=(0,1)\), \(f(u)=-u-u^2\) and \(T>0\). A posteriori estimates are obtained by using the discontinuous Galerkin method. The stability of the approximated solution is also discussed. Numerical results on a posteriori error and wave propagation are given, which are obtained by using various spatial and temporal meshes controlled automatically by a posteriori error.
