Singularity formation and blowup of complex-valued solutions of the modified KdV equation

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

The dynamics of the poles of the two--soliton solutions of the modified Korteweg--de Vries equation ut+6u2ux+uxxx=0 u_t + 6u^2u_x + u_{xxx} = 0 are determined. A consequence of this study is the existence of classes of smooth, complex--valued solutions of this equation, defined for −∞<x<∞-\infty < x < \infty, exponentially decreasing to zero as ∣x∣→∞|x| \to \infty, that blow up in finite time.
