Description of the inelastic collision of two solitary waves for the BBM equation

We prove that the collision of two solitary waves of the BBM equation is inelastic but almost elastic in the case where one solitary wave is small in the energy space. We show precise estimates of the nonzero residue due to the collision. Moreover, we give a precise description of the collision phenomenon (change of size of the solitary waves).

Asymptotic stability of solitons for the Benjamin-Ono equation

In this paper, we prove the asymptotic stability of the family of solitons of the Benjamin-Ono equation in the energy space. The proof is based on a Liouville property for solutions close to the solitons for this equation, in the spirit of Martel and Merle (arXiv:0706.1174v2). As a corollary of the proofs, we obtain the asymptotic stability of exact multi-solitons.
