Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the two-component Fornberg–Whitham system on the real line and study the issue of uniform dependence on initial data for this equation. We prove that the solution map of this problem cannot be uniformly continuous in Sobolev spaces \(H^s({\mathbb {R}})\times H^{s-1}({\mathbb {R}})\) for \(s > {\frac{3}{2}}\).
