TITLE:    Spectral stability of n-pulse solitons in a 5th-order KdV equation.

ABSTRACT: I will discuss spectral stability of n-pulses 
	  in a fifth-order KdV equation. The analysis is 
	  based on the splitting of eigenvalues for well-separated
	  n-pulses and on Krein signatures. The numerical method
	  of the shifting of the continuous spectrum will be used
	  to show embedded eigenvalues.
