Two dimensional exterior mixed problem for semilinear damped wave equations

We consider two dimensional exterior mixed problems for a semilinear damped wave equation with a power type nonlinearity p|u|. For compactly supported initial data, which have a small energy we shall derive global in time existence results in the case when the power of the nonlinearity satisfies 2<p<+∞. This generalizes a previous result of [J. Differential Equations 200 (2004) 53-68], which dealt with a radially symmetric solution.     

New decay estimates for linear damped wave equations and its application to nonlinear problem

We present new decay estimates of solutions for the mixed problem of the equation v_tt?v_xx+v_t=0, which has the weighted initial data [v₀,v₁]∈(H¹₀(0,∞) ∩L^1,γ(0,∞)) × (L²(0,∞)∩L^1,γ(0,∞)) (for definition of L^1,γ(0,∞), see below) satisfying γ∈[0,1]. Similar decay estimates are also derived to the Cauchy problem in ?^N for u_tt?Δu+u_t=0 with the weighted initial data. Finally, these decay estimates can be applied to the one dimensional critical exponent problem for a semilinear damped wave equation on the half line. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow-up of solutions to semilinear wave equations with variable coefficients and boundary

This paper is devoted to studying initial-boundary value problems for semilinear wave equations and derivative semilinear wave equations with variable coefficients on exterior domain with subcritical exponents in n space dimensions. We will establish blow-up results for the initial-boundary value problems. It is proved that there can be no global solutions no matter how small the initial data are, and also we give the life span estimate of solutions for the problems.     

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.

     

Global existence of solutions for damped wave equations with nonlinear memory

This article studies the Cauchy problem for the damped wave equation with nonlinear memory. For a noncompactly supported initial data with small energy, global existence and asymptotic behaviour of solutions are obtained when 1?≤?n?≤?3. This result generalized the previous result by Fino [Critical exponent for damped wave equations with nonlinear memory, Nonlinear Anal. 74 (2011), pp. 5495–5505], which dealt with the solution with compactly supported initial data.     

On self-similar solutions of semilinear wave equations in higher space dimensions

In this paper we analyze self-similar solutions of the semilinear wave equation Φ_tt − ΔΦ − Φ^p = 0 for n > 3 space dimensions. We found several classes of analytic solutions labeled by a single parameter, the form of which differ in the vicinity of the light cone. We also propose suitable numerical methods to study them.     

Global existence and nonexistence of solutions for a system of nonlinear damped wave equations

We consider the Cauchy problem for the system of semilinear damped wave equations with small initial data:

We show that a critical exponent which classifies the global existence and the finite time blow up of solutions indeed coincides with the one to a corresponding semilinear heat systems with small data. The proof of the global existence is based on the L^p–L^q estimates of fundamental solutions for linear damped wave equations [K. Nishihara, L^p–L^q estimates of solutions to the damped wave equation in 3-dimensional space and their application, Math. Z. 244 (2003) 631–649; K. Marcati, P. Nishihara, The L^p–L^q estimates of solutions to one-dimensional damped wave equations and their application to compressible flow through porous media, J. Differential Equations 191 (2003) 445–469; T. Hosono, T. Ogawa, Large time behavior and L^p–L^q estimate of 2-dimensional nonlinear damped wave equations, J. Differential Equations 203 (2004) 82–118; T. Narazaki, L^p–L^q estimates for damped wave equations and their applications to semilinear problem, J. Math. Soc. Japan 56 (2004) 585–626]. And the blow-up is shown by the Fujita–Kaplan–Zhang method [Q. Zhang, A blow-up result for a nonlinear wave equation with damping: The critical case, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris 333 (2001) 109–114; F. Sun, M. Wang, Existence and nonexistence of global solutions for a nonlinear hyperbolic system with damping, Nonlinear Anal. 66 (12) (2007) 2889–2910; T. Ogawa, H. Takeda, Non-existence of weak solutions to nonlinear damped wave equations in exterior domains, Nonlinear Anal. 70 (10) (2009) 3696–3701].

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.     

Exponential decay for semilinear wave equation with localized damping in the hyperbolic space

In this paper, we study the exponential decay of the energy associated to an initial value problem involving the wave equation on the hyperbolic space ${\mathbb{B}}^N$. The space ${\mathbb{B}}^N$ is the unit disc of ${\mathbb{R}}^N$ endowed with the Riemannian metric g given by $g_{ij}=p^2{\delta }_{ij}$, where $p(x)=\frac{2}{1-{|x|}^2}$ and ${\delta }_{ij}=1$, if $i=j$ and ${\delta }_{ij}=0$, if $i\ne j$. Making an appropriate change, the problem can be seen as a singular problem on the boundary of the open ball endowed with the euclidean metric. The proof is based on the multiplier techniques combined with the use of Hardy's inequality, in a version due to the Brezis–Marcus, which allows us to overcome the difficulty involving the singularities.     

Some remarks on the asymptotic profiles of solutions for strongly damped wave equations on the 1-D half space

We consider a mixed problem with the Dirichlet null boundary conditions on the 1-dimensional half space (0,+∞)$(0,+\infty )$. We will derive an asymptotic profiles of the corresponding solutions in the case when the initial data belong to a weighted L^1,2(0,∞)$L^{1,2}(0,\infty )$ space by employing a method recently introduced in [7] or [8].     

Decay properties of solutions to the incompressible magnetohydrodynamics equations in a half space

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the strong solution to the incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in a half space. The L^r‐decay rates of the strong solution and its derivatives with respect to space variables and time variable, including the L¹ and L ^∞ decay rates of its first order derivatives with respect to space variables, are derived by using L^q ? L^r estimates of the Stokes semigroup and employing a decomposition for the nonlinear terms in MHD equations. In addition, if the given initial data lie in a suitable weighted space, we obtain more rapid decay rates than observed in general. Similar results are known for incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in a half space under same assumption. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Global existence of solutions for 2‐D semilinear wave equations with dissipation localized near infinity in an exterior domain

We shall derive some global existence results to semilinear wave equations with a damping coefficient localized near infinity for very special initial data in H×L². This problem is dealt with in the two‐dimensional exterior domain with a star‐shaped complement. In our result, a power p on the non‐linear term |u|^p is strictly larger than the two‐dimensional Fujita‐exponent. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Local energy decay for linear wave equations with non‐compactly supported initial data

A local energy decay problem is studied to a typical linear wave equation in an exterior domain. For this purpose, we do not assume any compactness of the support on the initial data. This generalizes a previous famous result due to Morawetz (Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 1961; 14 :561–568). In order to prove local energy decay we mainly apply two types of new ideas due to Ikehata–Matsuyama (Sci. Math. Japon. 2002; 55 :33–42) and Todorova–Yordanov (J. Differential Equations 2001; 174 :464). Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
