Ill-posedness of the Novikov equation in the critical Besov space $B^{1}_{\infty,1}(\mathbb{R})$ [PDF]
It is shown that both the Camassa-Holm and Novikov equations are ill-posed in $B_{p,r}^{1+1/p}(\mathbb{R})$ with $(p,r)\in[1,\infty]\times(1,\infty]$ in \cite{Guo2019} and well-posed in $B_{p,1}^{1+1/p}(\mathbb{R})$ with $p\in[1,\infty)$ in \cite{Ye}. Recently, the ill-posedness for the Camassa-Holm equation in $B^{1}_{\infty,1}(\mathbb{R})$ has been ...
