Error bounds for Physics Informed Neural Networks in Generalized KdV Equations placed on unbounded domains

In this paper we study a rigorous setting for the numerical approximation via deep neural networks of the generalized Korteweg-de Vries (gKdV) model in one dimension, for subcritical and critical nonlinearities, and assuming that the domain is the unbounded real line. The fact that the model is posed on the real line makes the problem difficult from the point of view of learning techniques, since the setting required to model gKdV is structured on intricate oscillatory estimates dating from Kato, Bourgain and Kenig, Ponce and Vega, among others. Therefore, a first task is to adapt the setting of these techniques to the deep learning setting. We shall use a battery of Kenig-Ponce-Vega suitable norms and Physics Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to describe this approximative scheme, proving rigorous bounds on the approximation for each critical and subcritical gKdV model. We shall use this results to provide clear approximation results in the case of several gKdV nonlinear patterns such as solitons, multi-solitons, breathers, among other solutions.

Neural Discovery of Strichartz Extremizers

Strichartz inequalities are a cornerstone of the modern theory of dispersive PDEs, but their extremizers are known explicitly only in a handful of sharp cases. The non-convexity of the underlying functional makes the problem hard, and to our knowledge no systematic numerical attack has been attempted. We propose a simple neural-network-based pipeline that searches for extremizers as critical points of the Strichartz ratio, and apply it in three settings. First, on the Schrödinger group we recover the Gaussian extremizers of Foschi and Hundertmark--Zharnitsky in dimensions $d=1,2$ to within $10^{-3}$ relative error, with no analytical prior. Second, on $59$ further admissible pairs in $d=1$ where the answer is conjectural, the method consistently finds Gaussians, supporting the conjecture that Gaussians are the universal extremizers in the admissible range. Third, on the critical Airy--Strichartz inequality at $γ=1/q$, where existence is open, the optimization does not converge to any $L^2$ profile: instead, the iterates organize themselves as mKdV breathers $B(0,\cdot;α,1,0,0)$ with growing internal frequency $α$, and the discovered ratio approaches the Frank--Sabin universal lower bound $\widetilde A_{q,r}$ from below with a power-law gap $\simα^{-0.9}$. We confirm the same picture with an independent Hermite-basis ansatz. We propose a precise conjecture: the supremum equals $\widetilde A_{q,r}$ and is approached, but not attained, along the breather family. The pipeline thus serves both as a validator on known cases and as a discovery tool when no extremizer exists.

On Local Energy decay for solution of the Benjamin-Ono equation

We consider the long time dynamics of large solutions to the Benjamin-Ono equation. Using virial techniques, we describe regions of space where every solution in a suitable Sobolev space must decay to zero along sequences of times. Moreover, in the case of exterior regions, we prove complete decay for any sequence of times. The remaining regions not treated here are essentially the strong dispersion and soliton regions.

Long time asymptotics of large data in the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili models

We consider the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equations posed on $\mathbb{R}^2$. For both equations, we provide sequential in time asymptotic descriptions of solutions, of arbitrarily large data, inside regions not containing lumps or line solitons, and under minimal regularity assumptions. The proof involves the introduction of two new virial identities adapted to the KP dynamics, showing decay in large regions of space, especially in the KP-I case, where no monotonicity property was previously known. Our results do not require the use of the integrability of KP and are adaptable to well-posed perturbations of KP.

Stability and instability of breathers in the $U(1)$ Sasa-Satusuma and Nonlinear Schrödinger models

We consider the Sasa-Satsuma (SS) and Nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations posed along the line, in 1+1 dimensions. Both equations are canonical integrable $U(1)$ models, with solitons, multi-solitons and breather solutions, see Yang for instance. For these two equations, we recognize four distinct localized breather modes: the Sasa-Satsuma for SS, and for NLS the Satsuma-Yajima, Kuznetsov-Ma and Peregrine breathers. Very little is known about the stability of these solutions, mainly because of their complex structure, which does not fit into the classical soliton behavior by Grillakis-Shatah-Strauss. In this paper we find the natural $H^2$ variational characterization for each of them, and prove that Sasa-Satsuma breathers are $H^2$ nonlinearly stable, improving the linear stability property previously proved by Pelinovsky and Yang. Moreover, in the SS case, we provide an alternative understanding of the SS solution as a breather, and not only as an embedded soliton. The method of proof is based in the use of a $H^2$ based Lyapunov functional, in the spirit of the first and third authors, extended this time to the vector-valued case. We also provide another rigorous justification of the instability of the remaining three nonlinear modes (Satsuma-Yajima, Peregrine y Kuznetsov-Ma), based in the study of their corresponding linear variational structure (as critical points of a suitable Lyapunov functional), and complementing the instability results recently proved e.g. in a paper by the third author.

A sufficient condition for asymptotic stability of kinks in general (1+1)-scalar field models

We study stability properties of kinks for the (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear scalar field theory models \begin{equation*} \partial_t^2ϕ-\partial_x^2ϕ+ W'(ϕ) = 0, \quad (t,x)\in\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}. \end{equation*} The orbital stability of kinks under general assumptions on the potential $W$ is a consequence of energy arguments. Our main result is the derivation of a simple and explicit sufficient condition on the potential $W$ for the asymptotic stability of a given kink. This condition applies to any static or moving kink, in particular no symmetry assumption is required. Last, motivated by the Physics literature, we present applications of the criterion to the $P(ϕ)_2$ theories and the double sine-Gordon theory.

On local energy decay for large solutions of the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation

We consider the Zakharov-Kutznesov (ZK) equation posed in $\mathbb R^d$, with $d=2$ and $3$. Both equations are globally well-posed in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$. In this paper, we prove local energy decay of global solutions: if $u(t)$ is a solution to ZK with data in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$, then \[ \liminf_{t\rightarrow \infty}\int_{Ω_d(t)}u^{2}({\bf x},t)\mathrm{d}{\bf x}=0, \] for suitable regions of space $Ω_d(t)\subseteq \mathbb R^d$ around the origin, growing unbounded in time, not containing the soliton region. We also prove local decay for $H^1(\mathbb R^d)$ solutions. As a byproduct, our results extend decay properties for KdV and quartic KdV equations proved by Gustavo Ponce and the second author. Sequential rates of decay and other strong decay results are also provided as well.

Review on the stability of the Peregrine and related breathers

In this note, we review stability properties in energy spaces of three important nonlinear Schrödinger breathers: Peregrine, Kuznetsov-Ma, and Akhmediev. More precisely, we show that these breathers are unstable according to a standard definition of stability. Suitable Lyapunov functionals are described, as well as their underlying spectral properties. As an immediate consequence of the first variation of these functionals, we also present the corresponding nonlinear ODEs fulfilled by these NLS breathers. The notion of global stability for each breather above mentioned is finally discussed. Some open questions are also briefly mentioned.

The Gardner equation and the L^2-stability of the N-soliton solution of the Korteweg-de Vries equation

Multi-soliton solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) are shown to be globally L2-stable, and asymptotically stable in the sense of Martel-Merle. The proof is surprisingly simple and combines the Gardner transform, which links the Gardner and KdV equations, together with the Martel-Merle-Tsai and Martel-Merle recent results on stability and asymptotic stability in the energy space, applied this time to the Gardner equation. As a by-product, the results of Maddocks-Sachs and Merle-Vega are improved in several directions.
