## Numerical study of traveling-wave solutions for the Camassa–Holm equation.(English)Zbl 1136.35448

Summary: We explore numerically different aspects of periodic traveling-wave solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation. In particular, the time evolution of some recently found new traveling-wave solutions and the interaction of peaked and cusped waves is studied.
