The wave breaking for Whitham-type equations revisited

Abstract

We prove wave breaking (shock formation) for some Whitham-type equations which include the Burgers-Hilbert equation, the fractional Korteweg-de Vries equation, and the classical Whitham equation. The result seems to be new for the Burgers-Hilbert equation. In the other cases we provide simpler proofs than the known ones.
