This equation was derived from integrable theory and admits peaked soliton (peakon) and multipeakon solutions. By constructing two suitable piecewise functions, we establish the polynomial inequality relating to two conserved quantities and the maximum of the solution to this equation. The error estimate between the maximum of the solution and the peakon then follows from the structure of the polynomial inequality. Finally, we prove that a wave starting close to the peakon remains close to some translate of it at all later times, that is, the shapes of these peakons are stable under small perturbations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-05-01T00:00:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35B35", "35Q35", "35Q51", "37K45" ], "keywords": [ "generalized camassa-holm equation", "cubic nonlinearity", "polynomial inequality", "orbital stability problem", "peakon remains close" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1304.7084Z" } } }
