The existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for a highly nonlinear shallow-water model with Coriolis effect

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for a highly nonlinear shallow water model arising from the full water waves with Coriolis effect. The existence of weak solutions to the equation in the lower order Sobolev space Hs(R) with 1<s≤32 is presented. Moreover, the local well-posedness of strong solutions in Sobolev space Hs(R) with s>32 is established by the pseudoparabolic regularization technique.
