Persistence properties and unique continuation of solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation. (English)
[J] Commun. Math. Phys. 271, No. 2, 511-522 (2007). ISSN 0010-3616; ISSN 1432-0916/e

The authors study the Camassa-Holm equation $$ u_t - u_{txx} + 3uu_x -2u_x u_{xx} - u u_{xxx} = 0, $$ which physically was derived as a shallow water equation admitting peaked solitons. They prove that, given a strong solution to the Cauchy problem for this equation such that the initial data $u(x,0)$ decays exponentially together with the spatial derivative, if at some time $t_1>0$ the solution $u(x,t_1)$ decays exponentially in $x$ then $u$ is identically zero: $u(x,t) \equiv 0$.
