On the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the two-component peakon system in $C^k\cap W^{k,1}$

Abstract

This study focuses on the Cauchy problem associated with the two-component peakon system featuring a cubic nonlinearity, constrained to the class $(m,n)\in C^{k}(\mathbb{R}) \cap W^{k,1}(\mathbb{R})$ with $k\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{0\}$.This system extends the celebrated Fokas-Olver-Rosenau-Qiao equation, and the following nonlocal (two-place) counterpart proposed by Lou and Qiao: $$ \partial_t m(t,x)= \partial_x[m(t,x)(u(t,x)-\partial_xu(t,x)) (u(-t,-x)+\partial_x(u(-t,-x)))], $$ where $m(t,x)=\left(1-\partial_{x}^2\right)u(t,x)$. Employing an approach based on Lagrangian coordinates, we establish the local existence, uniqueness, and Lipschitz continuity of the data-to-solution map in the class $C^k\cap W^{k,1}$. Moreover, we derive criteria for blow-up of the local solution in this class.
