Global Lagrangian solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation
Abstract
In this paper we construct global weak conservative solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation on the periodic domain. We first express the equation in Lagrangian flow variable $\eta$ and then transform it using a change of variable $\rho=\sqrt{\eta_x}$. The new variable removes the singularity of the CH equation, and we obtain both the global weak conservative solution and global spatial smoothness of the Lagrangian trajectories of the CH equation. This work is motivated by J. Lenells who proved similar results for the Hunter-Saxton equation using the geometric interpretation.
