Benjamin–Ono equation

ID: benjamin-ono-equation

The Benjamin–Ono equation is a nonlinear partial differential equation that describes the propagation of long waves in one-dimensional shallow water, specifically in the context of surface water waves. It can also be viewed as a model for various other physical phenomena. The equation is named after the mathematicians Jerry Benjamin and A. T. Ono, who derived it in the 1960s.
