Existence of wave operators for Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in two space dimensions

Abstract

In this paper, we study long time behavior of solution to the two dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in the framework of the final state problem. We construct a small global solution to the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation which scatters to a given free solution. From this result, we have the existence of wave operators for the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. The proof is based on the space-time resonance method developed by Gustafson-Nakanishi-Tsai and Germain-Masmoudi-Shatah etc.
