Abstract
The linear stability of the multiple solitary wave solution of the Ben jamin-One (BO) equation is studied analytically. By establishing the c ompleteness relation for the eigenfunctions of the BCP equation linear ized about multisoliton solutions, we solve the initial value problem for this system. We find that the wave under consideration is stable a gainst infinitesimal perturbations. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Sci ence B.V.
