Hyperbolic Differential Equations 1 (2004) 27-49", "categories": [ "math.AP" ], "abstract": "We show that the Benjamin-Ono equation is globally well-posed in $H^s(\\R)$ for $s \\geq 1$. This is despite the presence of the derivative in the non-linearity, which causes the solution map to not be uniformly continuous in $H^s$ for any $s$. The main new ingredient is to perform a global gauge transformation which almost entirely eliminates this derivative.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2004-06-26T22:27:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35Q53" ], "keywords": [ "benjamin-ono equation", "global well-posedness", "global gauge transformation", "solution map", "non-linearity" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math......7289T" } } }
