Solitary waves for dispersive equations with Coifman-Meyer nonlinearities (2307.03628v2)

Abstract: Using a modified version of Weinstein's argument for constrained minimization in nonlinear dispersive equations, we prove existence of solitary waves in fully nonlocally nonlinear equations, as long as the linear multiplier is of positive and slightly higher order than the Coifman-Meyer nonlinear multiplier. It is therefore the relative order of the linear term over the nonlinear one that determines the method and existence for these types of equations. In analogy to Korteweg-De Vries-type equations and water waves in the capillary regime, smooth solutions of all amplitudes can be found. We consider two structural types of symmetric Coifman-Meyer symbols $n(\xi-\eta,\eta)$, and show that cyclical symmetry is necessary for the existence of a functional formulation. Estimates for the solution and wave speed are given as the solutions tend to the bifurcation point of solitary waves.
