Global well-posedness for $H^{-1}(\mathbb{R})$ perturbations of KdV with exotic spatial asymptotics (2104.11346v3)

Published 22 Apr 2021 in math.AP

Abstract: Given a suitable solution $V(t,x)$ to the Korteweg--de Vries equation on the real line, we prove global well-posedness for initial data $u(0,x) \in V(0,x) + H{-1}(\mathbb{R})$. Our conditions on $V$ do include regularity but do not impose any assumptions on spatial asymptotics. We show that periodic profiles $V(0,x) \in H5(\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$ satisfy our hypotheses. In particular, we can treat localized perturbations of the much-studied periodic traveling wave solutions (cnoidal waves) of KdV. In our companion paper we show that smooth step-like initial data also satisfy our hypotheses. We employ the method of commuting flows introduced by Killip and Vi\c{s}an; in the special case $V\equiv 0$, we recover their sharp $H{-1}(\mathbb{R})$ result.
