Abstract
The (in)validity of a system coupling the cubic, nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) and the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) commonly known as the NLS-KdV system for studying the interaction of long and short waves in dispersive media was discussed in part I of this work [N.V. Nguyen and C. Liu, Water Waves, 2:327–359, 2020]. It was shown that the NLS-KdV system can never be obtained from the full Euler equations formulated in the study of water waves, nor even the linear Schrödinger–Korteweg–de Vries system where the two equations in the system appear at the same scale in the asymptotic expansion for the temporal and spatial variables. A few alternative models were then proposed for describing the interaction of long and short waves.
In this second installment, the Cauchy problems associated with the alternative models introduced in Part I are analyzed. It is shown that all of these models are locally well-posed in some Sobolev spaces. Moreover, they are also globally well-posed in those spaces for a range of suitable parameters.
