The periodic Cauchy problem for the 2-component Camassa-Holm system. (English) Zbl 1299.35271

Summary: For Sobolev exponent \(s>3/2\), it is shown that the data-to-solution map for the 2-component Camassa-Holm system is continuous from \(H^s\times H^{s-1}(\mathbb {T})\) into \(C([0,T];H^s\times H^{s-1}(\mathbb {T}))\) but not uniformly continuous. The proof of non-uniform dependence on the initial data is based on the method of approximate solutions, delicate commutator and multiplier estimates, and well-posedness results for the solution and its lifespan. Also, the solution map is Hölder continuous if the \(H^s\times H^{s-1}(\mathbb {T})\) norm is replaced by an \(H^r\times H^{r-1}(\mathbb {T})\) norm for \(0\leq r<s\).
