Abstract

In this paper we show that non-smooth functions which are distributional traveling wave solutions to the two component Camassa–Holm equation are distributional traveling wave solutions to the Camassa–Holm equation provided that the set u-1(c), where c is the speed of the wave, is of measure zero. In particular there are no new peakon or cuspon solutions beyond those already satisfying the Camassa–Holm equation. However, the two component Camassa–Holm equation has distinct from Camassa–Holm equation smooth traveling wave solutions as well as new distributional solutions when the measure of u-1(c) is not zero. We provide examples of such solutions.
