Existence and Stability of Steady Waves for the Hasegawa-Mima Equation

By introducing a compactness lemma and considering a constrained variational problem, we obtain a set Gℝ2 of steady waves for Hasegawa-Mima equation, which describes the motion of drift waves in plasma. Moreover, we prove that Gℝ2 is a stable set for the initial value problem o...
