Abstract

We derive conditions on the initial data, including cases where the initial momentum density is not of one sign, that produce blow-up of the induced solution to the modified integrable Camassa-Holm equation with cubic nonlinearity. The blow-up conditions are formulated in terms of the initial momentum density and the average initial energy.
