ABSTRACT

Multiplying the KdV equation (9) by a test function ϕ ∈ C1,3t,x (Q), after integration, we obtain

u2ϕxdxdt =− ∫

u · Lϕdxdt+ ∫ Ω

uϕ ∣ ∣T 0 dx

+ T∫

B(u, ϕ) ∣ ∣L 0 dt.

Now we choose the test function ϕ as follows:

ϕ(x, t) = ϕ0(τ)ϕ1(ξ), with τ = t T and ξ =

x L . (20)

Here, ϕ0(τ) = (1− τ)2, with

c0 := 1∫

dτ = 4.
