| By understanding the spectrum,we can not only understand the dynamic character-istics of linear system itself,but also understand related dynamical behavior of nonlinear system.In recent years,the famous Camassa-Holm shallow water wave equation with periodic boundary conditions of the spectrum problem has attracted extensive attention of many scholars and experts.However,for the spectral problem of generalized Camassa-Holm equations with periodic boundary conditions,no relevant work has been done.In this paper we are concerned with the spectral problem for the periodic generalized Camassa-Holm equations(?)This paper is divided into three chapters.In chapter 1,we first introduce the spectral problem and the inverse spectral problem corresponding to the periodic Camassa-Holm equation.Then the latest progress of the generalized periodic Camassa-Holm equation is introduced,and the main work of this paper is briefly described.In chapter 2,we first introduce the preliminary knowledge of the convergence of func-tions in the weak topological sense of Lebesgue space L1[0,T].Then we use a dynamical approach to prove that(0.0.1)with the separated boundary condition y1(0)sinα+y2(0)cos α=0,y1(T)sinβ+y2(T)cosβ=0,has infinity real eigenvalues {λk(m)} satisfying …<λ-2(m)<λ-1(m)<λ0(m)<λ1(m)<λ2(m)<… and limk→±∞λk(m)=±∞.Moreover,each eigenvalue λk(m)is simple.Then we are able to construct the periodic eigenvalues and anti-periodic eigenvalues by {λk(m)}.The eigenvalues of Equation(0.0.1)satisfying the periodic boundary condition and the eigenvalues satisfying the anti-periodic boundary condition can be written as a sequence of real numbers as follows (?)where (?)k(m)and (?)k(m)are eigenvalues of(0.0.1)satisfying the periodic boundary for k being even,and (?)k(m)and (?)k(m)are eigenvalues of(0.0.1)satisfying the anti-periodic boundary for k being odd.Finally,we prove that as nonlinear functionals of potentials,eigenvalues are continuous in potentials with respect to the weak topologies in the Lebesgue space L1/[0,T].In chapter 3,we find the estimates of the eigenvalues when the L1 norm of potentials is given,based on an application of trace formulas. |
