  In this paper, we study the fifth-order Camassa-Holm equation with weakly dissipative term. We first give the local well-posedness result and the blow up criterion. Then, we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee that the solution exists globally in time. Finally, the infinite propagation speed of this equation is also investigated.

Introduction</title><p>In 1993, Camassa and Holm [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref1">1</xref>] derived an integrable shallow water equation taking the form as</p><p>u t − u x x t + 3 u u x = 2 u x u x x + u x u x x x , (1.1)</p><p>where u ( x , t ) denotes the height of the water above the flat bottom. Equation (1.1) describes wave motion in shallow water regime. Due to its mathematical importance and wide applications in physics, such equation has been intensively studied in the past decades and many interesting results have been obtained. Local well-posedness for the initial datum in H s with s &gt; 3 / 2 was proved in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref2">2</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref3">3</xref>] . The blow-up phenomenon was studied in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref2">2</xref>] - [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref7">7</xref>] . McKean [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref7">7</xref>] (see also [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref6">6</xref>] for a simple proof) proved that the Camassa-Holm equation breaks if and only if some portion of the positive part of y 0 lies to the left of some portion of its negative part, here y 0 = ( 1 − ∂ x 2 ) u 0 . The hierarchy properties and algebro-geometric solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation were proposed in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref8">8</xref>] . Global weak solution was studied in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref9">9</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref10">10</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref11">11</xref>] .</p><p>Later, researchers are concerned with the Camassa-Holm equation with weakly dissipative term</p><p>y t + u y x + 2 u x y + λ y = 0 ,     y = ( 1 − ∂ x 2 ) u . (1.2)</p><p>Wu and Yin proved in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref12">12</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref13">13</xref>] that the solution of (1.2) decays to zero as time goes to infinity if the initial momentum density y 0 does not change its sign. Unlike the Camassa-Holm equation, there are no traveling wave solutions of (1.2) (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref12">12</xref>] ). Global existence and blow-up phenomena were studied in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref12">12</xref>] - [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref17">17</xref>] .</p><p>In recent years, the following fifth-order Camassa-Holm equation was studied by Liu and Qiao [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref18">18</xref>] :</p><p>y t + u y x + b u x y = 0 ,   y = ( 1 − α 2 ∂ x 2 ) ( 1 − β 2 ∂ x 2 ) u ,   α β ≠ 0 , (1.3)</p><p>where b , α , β are real constants. In [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref18">18</xref>] , the authors studied peakon solutions including single pseudo-peakons, two-peakons and three-peakons interactional solutions of (1.3). In [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref19">19</xref>] , Tang and Liu proved that the Cauchy problem of this equation is locally well-posed in the critical Besov space B 2,1 7 / 2 or in B p , r s with 1 ≤ p , r ≤ + ∞ , s &gt; max { 3 + 1 / p , 7 / 2 } when α = β = 1 . Zhu, Cao, Jiang and Qiao [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref20">20</xref>] studied the global existence of the solution of (1.3) with α ≠ β ≠ 0 . For more mathematical studies of (1.3), we refer to [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref21">21</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref22">22</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref23">23</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref24">24</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref25">25</xref>] .</p><p>So far, there have been many researches on Camassa-Holm equation. However, the results on the fifth-order Camassa-Holm equation are few. In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of the fifth-order Camassa-Holm equation with weakly dissipative term</p><p>y t + u y x + b u x y + λ y = 0 ,   t &gt; 0 ,   x ∈ ℝ , (1.4)</p><p>y = ( 1 − α 2 ∂ x 2 ) ( 1 − β 2 ∂ x 2 ) u ,   t &gt; 0 ,   x ∈ ℝ , (1.5)</p><p>u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) , (1.6)</p><p>where b ∈ ℝ is a constant and α , β ∈ ℝ are two parameters satisfying α β ≠ 0 .

In Section 2, we present the local well-posedness result and the blow up criterion. In Section 3, we discuss the problem of global existence. Finally, we consider the infinite propagation speed in Section 4.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2. Blow up Criterion</title><p>In this section, we discuss the blow up criterion for the solution to (1.4) - (1.6). To this aim, we first give the following existence theorem.</p><p>Theorem 2.1. Let u 0 ∈ H s ( ℝ ) with s &gt; 7 2 . Then the Cauchy problem (1.4) - (1.6) admits a unique solution u ( x , t ) such that</p><p>u ∈ C ( [ 0, T ) ; H s ( ℝ ) ) ∩ C 1 ( [ 0, T ) ; H s − 1 ( ℝ ) ) ,</p><p>where T = T ( ‖ u 0 ‖ H s ) &gt; 0 .</p><p>Theorem 2.1 can be proved by applying Kato’s method [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref26">26</xref>] . Since the argument is standard, we omit the details for simplicity. If T &lt; ∞ and</p><p>l i m t → T − ‖ u ‖ H s = ∞ ,</p><p>we say the solution blows up in finite time. If the norm ‖ u ‖ H s is bounded at any large time, we say the solution exists globally.</p><p>Define</p><p>G ( x ) = { α 2 ( α 2 − β 2 ) e − | x | α − β 2 ( α 2 − β 2 ) e − | x | β , α ≠ β , 1 4 α ( 1 + | x | α ) e − | x | α , α = β , (2.1)</p><p>then the function [ ( 1 − α 2 ∂ x 2 ) ( 1 − β 2 ∂ x 2 ) ] − 1 y can be expressed as</p><p>u ( t , x ) = [ ( 1 − α 2 ∂ x 2 ) ( 1 − β 2 ∂ x 2 ) ] − 1 y ( t , x ) = G ∗ y .</p><p>Now we state the main result of this section.</p><p>Theorem 2.2. Assume that u 0 ∈ H 4 ( ℝ ) , and T is the maximal existence time of the solution obtained by Theorem 2.1.</p><p>1) If b &gt; 1 2 , then the solution blows up in finite time if and only if</p><p>lim t → T inf x ∈ ℝ u x = − ∞ .

(2.5)</p><p>By Gronwall’s inequality, there holds</p><p>‖ y ‖ L 2 2 ≤ e [ − ( 1 − 2 b ) M − 2 λ ] t ‖ y 0 ‖ L 2 2 . (2.6)</p><p>Hence, ‖ u ( x , t ) ‖ H 4 is bounded for all t ∈ [ 0, T ) , which contradicts the maximal property of T.</p><p>In case of b &lt; 1 2 , we can obtain similar result with the same arguments as above.

Global Existence Results</title><p>In this section, we will show two global existence results. To begin with, motivated by Mckean’s deep observation for the Camassa-Holm equation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.123584-ref7">7</xref>] , we define the particle trajectory by</p><p>( q t = u ( q , t ) , 0 &lt; t &lt; T ,   x ∈ ℝ , q ( x , 0 ) = x , x ∈ ℝ , (3.1)</p><p>where T is the lifespan of the solution. From (3.1), we get</p><p>d q t d x = q t x = u x ( q , t ) q x ,   t ∈ ( 0 , T ) ,</p><p>which yields</p><p>( q x = exp { ∫ 0 t   u x ( q , s ) d s } , 0 &lt; t &lt; T , x ∈ ℝ , q x ( x , 0 ) = 1 , x ∈ ℝ . (3.2)</p><p>The relation (3.2) implies that q x is always positive, hence q ( x , t ) is an increasing function. A direct calculation gives</p><p>d d t ( y ( q ) q x b ) = [ y t ( q ) + u ( q , t ) y x ( q ) + b u x ( q , t ) y ( q ) ] q x b = − λ y ( q ) q x b ,</p><p>so we have</p><p>y ( q ) q x b = e − λ t y 0 ( x ) . (3.3)</p><p>From (3.3), we also get</p><p>e λ t b ∫ ℝ   y 1 b d x = ∫ ℝ   y 0 1 b d x . (3.4)</p><p>Theorem 3.1. Assume b = 1 2 or b = 2 , and u 0 ∈ H s ( ℝ ) with s &gt; 7 2 , then the solution of (1.4) - (1.6) exists globally in time.</p><p>Proof: We first consider the case b = 1 2 . Multiplying both sides of Equation (1.4) by y and integrating with respect to x, we have</p><p>d d t ‖ y ‖ L 2 2 + 2 λ ‖ y ‖ L 2 2 = 0,</p><p>hence, we obtain ‖ y ‖ L 2 = e − λ t ‖ y 0 ‖ L 2 . By (2.4) and Sobolev’s inequality, we see that ‖ u x ‖ L ∞ is bounded by ‖ y ‖ L 2 , so we can extend the local solution to be a global solution.</p><p>Then, we give the proof for b = 2 . Let</p><p>E ( t ) = ∫ ℝ [ u 2 + ( α 2 + β 2 ) u x 2 + α 2 β 2 u x x 2 ] d x ,</p><p>then</p><p>d d t E ( t ) = ∫ ℝ [ 2 u u t + 2 ( α 2 + β 2 ) u x u x t + 2 α 2 β 2 u x x u x x t ] d x = ∫ ℝ [ 2 u u t − 2 ( α 2 + β 2 ) u u x x t + 2 α 2 β 2 u u x x x x t ] d x = 2 ∫ ℝ   u y t d x = − 2 ∫ ℝ   u ( u y x + 2 u x y + λ y ) d x = − 2 λ E ( t ) .</p><p>The above identity gives E ( t ) = e − 2 λ t E ( 0 ) , so once again we can see ‖ u x ‖ L ∞ is bounded.
