Asymptotic decay of solutions of the liouville equation under perturbations

We consider the Cauchy problem for a perturbed Liouville equation. An asymptotic solution is constructed with respect to the perturbation parameter by the two-scale expansion method; this construction can be applied over long time intervals. The main result is the definition of a deformation of the leading term of the asymptotic expansion within a slow time scale.
