摘要
The evolution equation u(t) - u(xxt) + u(x) - uu(t) + ux integral(+infinity)(x) u(t)dx' = 0, (1) was developed by Hirota and Satsuma as an approximate model for unidirectional propagation of long-crested water waves. It possesses solitary-wave solutions just as do the related Korteweg-de Vries and Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equations. Using the recently developed theory for the initial-value problem for (1) and an analysis of an associated Liapunov functional, nonlinear stability of these solitary waves is established.
