Global attractors for wave equations with nonlinear interior damping and critical exponents

In this paper we study the global attractors for wave equations with nonlinear interior damping. We prove the existence, regularity and finite dimensionality of the global attractors without assuming a large value for the damping parameter, when the growth of the nonlinear terms is critical.     

Global existence of solutions for semilinear damped wave equation in 2-D exterior domain

We consider a mixed problem of a damped wave equation u_tt−Δu+u_t=|u|^p in the two dimensional exterior domain case. Small global in time solutions can be constructed in the case when the power p on the nonlinear term |u|^p satisfies p∗=2<p<+∞. For this purpose we shall deal with a radially symmetric solution in the exterior domain. A new device developed in Ikehata-Matsuyama (Sci. Math. Japon. 55 (2002) 33) plays an effective role.     

Global existence and blow-up of solutionsfor a higher-order kirchhoff-type equation with nonlinear dissipation

This paper deals with the higher-order Kirchhoff-type equation with nonlinear dissipationu_tt+(∫_Ω׀D^mu׀²dx)^q(−Δ)^mu+u_t׀u_t׀^r=׀u׀^pu,xΩ,t>0,in a bounded domain, where m < 1 is a positive integer, q, p, r < 0 arepositive constants. We obtain that the solution exists globally if p ≤ r, while ifp > max r, 2q , then for any initial data with negative initial energy, the solution blowsup at finite time in L^p+2 norm.     

A nonlinear approach to absorbing boundary conditions for the semilinear wave equation

We construct a family of absorbing boundary conditions for the semilinear wave equation. Our principal tool is the paradifferential calculus which enables us to deal with nonlinear terms. We show that the corresponding initial boundary value problems are well posed. We finally present numerical experiments illustrating the efficiency of the method.

Finite dimensionality of global attractors for a non-classical reaction-diffusion equation with memory

In this paper, we consider a periodic boundary value problem for a non-classical reaction-diffusion equation with memory. In other paper, we use the ω-limit compactness of the solution semigroup {S(t)}_t≥0 to get the existence of a global attractor. The main goal here is to give an estimate of the fractal dimension of the global attractor. By the fractal dimension theorem given by A.O. Celebi et al., we obtain that the fractal dimension of the global attractor for the problem is finite; this makes the results for the non-classical reaction-diffusion equations more substantial and perfect.     

Self-similar solutions of semilinear wave equation with variable speed of propagation

We investigate the issue of existence of the self-similar solutions of the generalized Tricomi equation in the half-space where the equation is hyperbolic. We look for the self-similar solutions via the Cauchy problem. An integral transformation suggested in [K. Yagdjian, A note on the fundamental solution for the Tricomi-type equation in the hyperbolic domain, J. Differential Equations 206 (2004) 227-252] is used to represent solutions of the Cauchy problem for the linear Tricomi-type equation in terms of fundamental solutions of the classical wave equation. This representation allows us to prove decay estimates for the linear Tricomi-type equation with a source term. Obtained in [K. Yagdjian, The self-similar solutions of the Tricomi-type equations, Z. Angew. Math. Phys., in press, doi:10.1007/s00033-006-5099-2] estimates for the self-similar solutions of the linear Tricomi-type equation are the key tools to prove existence of the self-similar solutions.     

Solvability and stability of a semilinear wave equation with nonlinear boundary conditions

We discuss solvability for the semilinear equation of the vibrating string x_tt(t,y)−Δx(t,y)+f(t,y,x(t,y))=0 in a bounded domain, and certain type of nonlinearity on the boundary. To this effect we derive a new dual variational method. Next we discuss stability of solutions with respect to initial conditions.     

Asymptotic regularity and attractors of the reaction-diffusion equation with nonlinear boundary condition

We consider the dynamical behavior of the reaction-diffusion equation with nonlinear boundary condition for both autonomous and non-autonomous cases. For the autonomous case, under the assumption that the internal nonlinear term f is dissipative and the boundary nonlinear term g is non-dissipative, the asymptotic regularity of solutions is proved. For the non-autonomous case, we obtain the existence of a compact uniform attractor in H¹(Ω) with dissipative internal and boundary nonlinearities.     

The existence of global attractors for a class nonlinear evolution equation

Cauchy problem for semilinear wave equation with time-dependent metrics

We establish the existence of a weak solution u of the semilinear wave equation where a(t,x) is equal to 1 outside a compact set with respect to x and a non-linear term f_k which satisfies |f_k(u)|≤C|u|^k. For some non-trapping time-periodic perturbations a(t,x), we obtain the long time existence of a solution from little initial data.

Strichartz estimates in the hyperbolic space and global existence for the semilinear wave equation

The aim of this article is twofold. First we consider the wave equation in the hyperbolic space and obtain the counterparts of the Strichartz type estimates in this context. Next we examine the relationship between semilinear hyperbolic equations in the Minkowski space and in the hyperbolic space. This leads to a simple proof of the recent result of Georgiev, Lindblad and Sogge on global existence for solutions to semilinear hyperbolic problems with small data. Shifting the space-time Strichartz estimates from the hyperbolic space to the Minkowski space yields weighted Strichartz estimates in which extend the ones of Georgiev, Lindblad, and Sogge.
