Abstract
It is shown that a strong solution of the Degasperis–Procesi equation, initially decaying exponentially together with its spatial derivative, must be identically equal to zero if it also decays exponentially at a later time. The decay rate of the corresponding strong solution at infinity is also given for some kinds of initial data with exponential decay.
