On the propagation of regularities in solutions of the Benjamin-Ono equation (1409.2381v1)

Abstract: We shall deduce some special regularity properties of solutions to the IVP associated to the Benjamin-Ono equation. Mainly, for datum $u_0\in H^{3/2}(\mathbb R)$ whose restriction belongs to $H^m((b,\infty))$ for some $m\in\mathbb Z^+,\,m\geq 2,$ and $b\in \mathbb R$ we shall prove that the restriction of the corresponding solution $u(\cdot,t)$ belongs to $H^m((\beta,\infty))$ for any $\beta\in \mathbb R$ and any $t>0$. Therefore, this type of regularity of the datum travels with infinite speed to its left as time evolves.
