La. Kalyakin et Va. Lazarev, PERTURBATION OF THE 2-SOLITON SOLUTION TO THE KDV EQUATION, Theoretical and mathematical physics, 112(1), 1997, pp. 866-874
The Cauchy problem for the perturbed Korteveg-de Vries equation with t
he two-soliton initial data is considered. Differential equations for
the slow deformation of the parameters-amplitudes and phase shifts-are
derived. It is shown that the phase shift of the slow soliton depends
on the deformation of the fast soliton.
