Propagation of regularity and decay of solutions to the $k$-generalized   Korteweg-de Vries equation
  We study special regularity and decay properties of solutions to the IVP associated to the $k$-generalized KdV equations. In particular, for datum $u_0\in H^{3/4^+}(\mathbb R)$ whose restriction belongs to $H^l((b,\infty))$ for some $l\in\mathbb Z^+$ and $b\in \mathbb R$ we prove that the restriction of the corresponding solution $u(\cdot,t)$ belongs to $H^l((\beta,\infty))$ for any $\beta \in \mathbb R$ and any $t\in (0,T)$. Thus, this type of regularity propagates with infinite speed to its left as time evolves.
