Blow-up phenomenon, ill-posedness and peakon solutions for the periodic Euler-Poincar\'e equations

In this paper we mainly investigate the initial value problem of the periodic Euler-Poincar'e equations. We first present a new blow-up result to the system for a special class of smooth initial data by using the rotational invariant properties of the system. Then, we prove that the periodic Euler-Poincar'e equations is ill-posed in critical Besov spaces by a contradiction argument. Finally, we verify the system possesses a class of peakon solutions in the sense of distributions.
