Do you know about any book which discusses solitons in Benjamin-Ono Equation?
Benjamin-Ono equation is an integrable equation with soliton solutions. There are many books on solitons. The ones I know about mainly discuss solitons in Korteweg de-Vries and related equations. Do ...

Doubt on Lax formulation of Korteweg–de Vries equation
The Korteweg–de Vries equation is given by:
$$\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial t}-6u\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial^3 u(x,t)}{\partial x^3}=0$$
This equation can be formulated using ...

Link between integrability and soliton solutions
I have been doing some research on the properties and dynamics of solitons (in particular, solitons in superfluids) and several works and papers mention the link between solitonic solutions and ...

KdV equation and classical linear wave equation
Like we know, the standard form of KdV equation is
$$u_{t}-6uu_{x}+u_{xxx}=0,\tag{1}$$
where this equation describes a solitary wave propagation and $u=u(x,t)$.
On the other hand, we know the ...
