Abstract

We study the following initial-boundary value problem for the nonlocal Whitham equation ut+N(u)+Ku=0, (x,t) ∈R+×R+, u(x,0)=u~(x), x∈R+, where the nonlinearity is N(u)=uxu and K is the pseudodifferential operator on the half-line of order α satisfying 1<α<2 and some dissipative conditions. We prove that if the initial data are such that xδu~∈L1, with δ∈(0, 1/2 ) and the norm par/u~par/X+par/xδu~par/(L1) is sufficiently small, where X={psi/∈(L1), psi/'∈L1;par/psi/par/x=par/psi/par/(L1)+par/psi/xpar/(L1)<∞}, then there exists a unique solution u∈C ([0, +∞); L2)cap/C(R+, H1) of the initial-value problem (1), where Hk is the Sobolev space with norm par/φpar/(Hk)=par/(1-part/2x)k/2φpar/(L2). We also study large time asymptotics of the solutions.
