KdV approximation conjecture for generalized moving pulse solutions in the FPU model
Let and . For sufficiently small , consider the FPU system and the speed . A generalized moving pulse solution of permanent form is a solution with a smooth profile . KdV approximation conjecture. For every and , there exist such that, for every , the FPU system possesses such a solution with
where is smooth,
and
Here is the solitary wave of the associated KdV equation with speed . This is the KdV solitary-wave prediction near the speed of sound; the supplied text gives the conjectural existence and approximation statement but no resolution status.
