$L^2$-stableness for solution to linearized KdV equation

Abstract

The linearized Korteweg-De Vries equation can be written as a Hamilton-like system. However, the Hamilton energy depends on the time, and is a nonsymmetric operator on $L^2({\bf R})$. By performing suitable unitary transforms on the Hamilton energy, we can reduce this operator into one that is not independent on the time but nonsymmetric. In this study, we consider the $L^2$-stability issues and smoothing estimates for this operator, and prove that it has no eigenvalues.
