Abstract

The authors use constructive methods to investigate the spectral theory of the Benjamin-Ono equation. Since the linearization series used previously is singular, they replace it with an improved series obtained by finite-rank renormalization. This introduces additional scattering data, which are shown to be dependent upon a single function, though not the usual one. They then prove the continuity of the direct and inverse scattering transforms defined by the improved series for small complex potentials.
