Diophantine conditions in well-posedness theory for a coupled modulated Korteweg-de Vries system

We study the well-posedness theory of a coupled modulated Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) system on the circle with a time non-homogeneous modulation acting on the linear dispersion term. When the coupling parameter is equal to one, it has been recently proved that given any $s\in \mathbb{R}$, the resulting modulated KdV system is globally well-posed in $H^s(\mathbb{T})\times H^s(\mathbb{T})$, with a sufficiently irregular modulation. For couplings different from one, we use Diophantine conditions to characterize the resonances and prove that (under further restrictions on the coupling constant) for any $s\in \mathbb{R}$ the coupled modulated KdV system is globally well-posed in $H^s(\mathbb{T})\times H^s(\mathbb{T})$. This result differs from its unmodulated counterpart where it is known that global well-posedness holds for $s\ge s_*\in (5/7,1]$.

Unconditional well-posedness of the stochastic Korteweg-de Vries equation on the real line

We study well-posedness issues of the stochastic Korteweg-de Vries equation (SKdV) with an additive noise, posed on the real line. By using the Fourier restriction norm method adapted to the Fourier-Lebesgue space in time, we first prove global well-posedness of SKdV in $L^2(\mathbb R)$ without assuming the homogenous Sobolev regularity, which was imposed in a work by de Bouard, Debussche, and Tsutsumi (1999). Then, by adapting the argument by Zhou (1997) to the stochastic setting, we prove optimal pathwise unconditional uniqueness for SKdV in $L^2(\mathbb R)$. In the appendix, we present a short argument for proving boundedness of the multiplication by a sharp cutoff function in the Fourier-Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces, which is of interest in its own right.

Cancellation properties and unconditional well-posedness for fifth order modified KdV type equations with periodic boundary conditions

We prove the unconditional well-posedness result for fifth order modified KdV type equations in $H^s(\mathbb{T})$ when $s \geq 3/2$, which includes non-integrable cases. By the conservation laws, we also obtain the global well-posedness result when $s = 2$, which also includes non-integrable cases. The main idea is to employ the normal form reduction and a kind of cancellation properties to deal with the derivative losses.

Cancellation properties and unconditional well-posedness for the fifth order KdV type equations with periodic boundary condition

We consider the fifth order KdV type equations and prove the unconditional well-posedness in $H^s(\mathbb{T})$ for $s \ge 1$. It is optimal in the sense that the nonlinear terms can not be defined in the space-time distribution framework for $s<1$. The main idea is to employ the normal form reduction and a kinds of cancellation properties to deal with the derivative losses.

Parabolic smoothing effect and local well-posedness of fifth order semilinear dispersive equations on the torus

We consider the Cauchy problem of fifth order dispersive equations on the torus. We assume that the initial data is sufficiently smooth and the nonlinear term is a polynomial depending on $\partial_x^3 u, \partial_x^2 u, \partial_x u$ and $u$. We prove that the local well-posedness holds on $[-T,T]$ when the nonlinear term satisfies a condition and otherwise, the local well-posedness holds with a smoothing effect only on either $[0,T]$ or $[-T,0]$ and nonexistence result holds on the other time interval, which means that the nonlinear term can not be treated as a perturbation of the linear part and the equation has a property of parabolic equations by an influence of the nonlinear term. As a corollary, we also have the same results for $(2j+1)$-st order dispersive equations.

Scattering and well-posedness for the Zakharov system at a critical space in four and more spatial dimensions

We study the Cauchy problem for the Zakharov system in spatial dimension $d\ge 4$ with initial datum $(u(0), n(0), \partial_t n(0)) \in H^k(\mathbb{R}^d) \times \dot{H}^l(\mathbb{R}^d)\times \dot{H}^{l-1}(\mathbb{R}^d)$. According to Ginibre, Tsutsumi and Velo, the critical exponent of $(k,l)$ is $((d-3)/2,(d-4)/2)$. We prove the scattering and the small data global well-posedness at the critical space. It seems difficult to get the crucial bilinear estimate only by applying the $U^2,\ V^2$ type spaces introduced by Koch-Tataru. To avoid the difficulty, we use an intersection space of $V^2$ type space and the space-time Lebesgue space $L^2_tL_x^{2d/(d-2)}$, which is related to the endpoint Strichartz estimate.

Local well-posedness of the KdV equation with quasi periodic initial data

We prove the local well-posedness for the Cauchy problem of the Korteweg-de Vries equation in a quasi periodic function space. The function space contains functions such that f=f_1+f_2+...+f_N where f_j is in the Sobolev space of order s>-1/2N of a_j periodic functions. Note that f is not a periodic function when the ratio of periods a_i/a_j is irrational. The main tool of the proof is the Fourier restriction norm method introduced by Bourgain. We also prove an ill-posedness result in the sense that the flow map (if it exists) is not C^2, which is related to the Diophantine problem.
