Abstract:The Ostrovsky equation is a model for gravity waves propagating down a channel under the influence of Coriolis force. This equation is a modification of the famous Korteweg-de Vries equation and is also Hamiltonian. However the Ostrovsky equation is not integrable and in this contribution we prove its nonintegrability. We also study local bifurcations of its solitary waves.MSC: 35Q35, 35Q53, 37K10

A brief survey of the theory of soliton perturbations is presented. The focus is on the usefulness of the so-called Generalised Fourier Transform (GFT). This is a method that involves expansions over the complete basis of "squared solutions" of the spectral problem, associated to the soliton equation. The Inverse Scattering Transform for the corresponding hierarchy of soliton equations can be viewed as a GFT where the expansions of the solutions have generalised Fourier coefficients given by the scattering data.The GFT provides a natural setting for the analysis of small perturbations to an integrable equation: starting from a purely soliton solution one can 'modify' the soliton parameters such as to incorporate the changes caused by the perturbation.As illustrative examples the perturbed equations of the KdV hierarchy, in particular the Ostrovsky equation, followed by the perturbation theory for the Camassa-Holm hierarchy are presented.

“…While both the SPE the mKdV equation are integrable [1,25] so associated with them are an infinite number of conserved quantities, the arguments in [10,5] show that the α term in the RSPE destroys the integrable structure. Nevertheless there are conserved quantities associated with (1.2).…”

We derive a model for the propagation of short pulses in nonlinear media. The model is a higher order regularization of the short pulse equation (SPE). The regularization term arises as the next term in the expansion of the susceptibility in derivation of the SPE. Without the regularization term there do not exist traveling pulses in the class of piecewise smooth functions with one discontinuity. However, when the regularization term is added we show, for a particular parameter regime, that the equation supports smooth traveling waves which have structure similar to solitary waves of the modified KdV equation. The existence of such traveling pulses is proved via the Fenichel theory for singularly perturbed systems and a Melnikov type transversality calculation. Corresponding statements for the Ostrovsky equations are also included.
“…One of the main concerns regarding Equation was to determine the existence of solitary wave solutions and its stability. Serval contributions have been devoted to treat with this problem (see and the references therein). It is worth mentioning that Levandosky and Liu considered a generalized Ostrovsky equation They investigated the stability of solitary wave solutions of .…”
