Analyticity of solutions for a generalized Euler equation

[摘要] We consider the so-called lake and great lake equations, which are shallow water equations that describe the long-time motion of an inviscid, incompressible fluid contained in a shallow basin with a slowly spatially varying bottom, a free upper surface, and vertical side walls, under the influence of gravity and in the limit of small characteristic velocities and very small surface amplitude. If these equations are posed on a space-periodic domain and the initial data are real analytic, the solution remains real analytic for all times. The proof is based on a characterization of Gevrey classes in terms of decay of Fourier coefficients. In particular, our result recovers known results for the Euler equations in two and three spatial dimensions. We believe the proof is new. (C) 1997 Academic Press
