Abstract

A generalization of the famous KdV equation is investigated where applications to unidirectional propagation of long water waves on a viscous liquid are considered. The emphasis of this paper is on rigorous mathematical analysis to prove the existence, uniqueness and like properties of the solution of this partial differential equation. In addition, a second generalization equation, KdV with constant coefficients, is considered and like results are provided.
