Stabilization of the Kawahara equation with localized damping
ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, Tome 17 (2011) no. 1, pp. 102-116.

We study the stabilization of global solutions of the Kawahara (K) equation in a bounded interval, under the effect of a localized damping mechanism. The Kawahara equation is a model for small amplitude long waves. Using multiplier techniques and compactness arguments we prove the exponential decay of the solutions of the (K) model. The proof requires of a unique continuation theorem and the smoothing effect of the (K) equation on the real line, which are proved in this work.
