In this paper, our first objective is to investigate the decay rates and the global (in time) existence of solutions to the semilinear damped wave equation with the Riesz potential-type power nonlinearity $\mathcal{I}_γ\left(|u|^p\right)$, where $γ\in[0,n)$, in terms of the decay character of the initial data. This approach enables us to establish global existence results for several classes of initial data. Our second objective is to show, via a blow-up argument, that the conditions imposed on the nonlinearity in the global existence theorem are sharp for initial data belonging to the pseudo-measure space $\mathcal{Y}^q$. As a consequence, we derive the new critical exponent $$ p_{\mathrm{crit}}(n,q,γ):=1+\frac{2+γ}{n-q} $$ for $1\leq n\leq 4$ and $0\leq γ<q<n/2$. Furthermore, we establish a sharp lifespan estimate for solutions that blow up in finite time.
In this paper, we analyze the pressureless damped Euler-Riesz equations posed in either $\mathbb{R}^d$ or $\mathbb{T}^d$. We construct the global-in-time existence and uniqueness of classical solutions for the system around a constant background state. We also establish large-time behaviors of classical solutions showing the solutions towards the equilibrium as time goes to infinity. For the whole space case, we first show the algebraic decay rate of solutions under additional assumptions on the initial data compared to the existence theory. We then refine the argument to have the exponential …
We study two-dimensional semilinear strongly damped wave equation with mixed nonlinearity $|u|^p+|u_t|^q$ in an exterior domain, where $p,q>1$. Assuming the smallness of initial data in exponentially weighted spaces and some conditions on powers of nonlinearity, we prove global (in time) existence of small data energy solution with suitable higher regularity by using a weighted energy method.
In this article, we indicate that under suitable assumptions of a modulus of continuity we obtain either the global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev solutions or the blow-up result of local (in time) Sobolev solutions to semi-linear damped $σ$-evolution equations with a modulus of continuity term in nonlinearity.
In this paper, a strongly damped semilinear wave equation with a general nonlinearity is considered. With the help of a newly constructed auxiliary functional and the concavity argument, a general finite time blow-up criterion is established for this problem. Furthermore, the lifespan of the weak solution is estimated from both above and below. This partially extends some results obtained in recent literatures and sheds some light on the similar effect of power type nonlinearity and logarithmic nonlinearity on finite time blow-up of solutions to such problems.
In this note, we prove a blow-up result for the semilinear damped wave equation in a compact Lie group with power nonlinearity $|u|^p$ for any $p>1$, under suitable integral sign assumptions for the initial data, by using an iteration argument. A byproduct of this method is the upper bound estimate for the lifespan of a local in time solution. As a preliminary result, a local (in time) existence result is proved in the energy space via Fourier analysis on compact Lie groups.
This paper is devoted to the lifespan of solutions to a damped fourth-order wave equation with logarithmic nonlinearity $$u_{tt}+Δ^2u-Δu-ωΔu_t+α(t)u_t=|u|^{p-2}u\ln|u|.$$ Finite time blow-up criteria for solutions at both lower and high initial energy levels are established, and an upper bound for the blow-up time is given for each case. Moreover, by constructing a new auxiliary functional and making full use of the strong damping term, a lower bound for the blow-up time is also derived.
In this research, we would like to study the global (in time) existence of small data solutions to the following damped $σ$-evolution equations with nonlocal (in space) nonlinearity: \begin{equation*} \partial_{t}^{2}u+(-Δ)^σu+\partial_{t}u+(-Δ)^σ\partial_{t}u=I_α(|u|^{p}), \ \ t>0, \ \ x\in \mathbb{R}^{n}, \end{equation*} where $σ\geq1$, $p>1$ and $I_α$ is the Riesz potential of power nonlinearity $|u|^{p}$ for any $α\in (0,n)$. More precisely, by using the $(L^{m}\cap L^{2})-L^{2}$ and $L^{2}-L^{2}$ linear estimates, where $m\in[1,2]$, we show the new influence of the parameter $α$ on the ad…
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the semilinear damped wave equation on the Heisenberg group with power nonlinearity. We prove that the critical exponent is the Fujita exponent $p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q}) = 1+2 / \mathscr{Q}$, where $\mathscr{Q}$ is the homogeneous dimension of the Heisenberg group. On the one hand, we will prove the global existence of small data solutions for $p >p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q})$ in an exponential weighted energy space. On the other hand, a blow-up result for $1 < p \leq p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q})$ under certain integral sign assumptions …
In this article, we investigate the blow-up for local solutions to a semilinear wave equation in the generalized Einstein - de Sitter spacetime with nonlinearity of derivative type. More precisely, we consider a semilinear damped wave equation with a time-dependent and not summable speed of propagation and with a time-dependent coefficient for the linear damping term with critical decay rate. We prove in this work that the results obtained in a previous work, where the damping coefficient takes two particular values $0$ or $2$, can be extended for any positive damping coefficient. In the blow-…
We consider the damped wave equation αu_tt + u_t = u_xx - V'(u) on the whole real line, where V is a bistable potential. This equation has travelling front solutions of the form u(x,t) = h(x-st) which describe a moving interface between two different steady states of the system, one of which being the global minimum of V. We show that, if the initial data are sufficiently close to the profile of a front for large |x|, the solution of the damped wave equation converges uniformly on R to a travelling front as t goes to plus infinity. The proof of this global stability result is inspired by a rec…
In this paper, by means of the Riesz basis approach, we study the stability of a weakly damped system of two second order evolution equations coupled through the velocities. If the fractional order damping becomes viscous and the waves propagate with equal speeds, we prove exponential stability of the system and, otherwise, we establish an optimal polynomial decay rate. Finally, we provide some illustrative examples.
The paper investigates the existence of global attractors and their upper semicontinuity for a structural damped wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^{N}: u_{tt}-Δu+(-Δ)^αu_{t}+u_{t}+u+g(u)=f(x)$, where $α\in (1/2, 1)$ is called a dissipative index. We propose a new method based on the harmonic analysis technique and the commutator estimate to exploit the dissipative effect of the structural damping $(-Δ)^αu_{t}$ and to overcome the essential difficulty: "both the unbounded domain $\mathbb{R}^N$ and the supercritical nonlinearity cause that the Sobolev embedding loses its compactness"; Meanwhile we sh…
We study the non-autonomous weakly damped wave equation with subquintic growth condition on the nonlinearity. Our main focus is the class of Shatah--Struwe solutions, which satisfy the Strichartz estimates and are coincide with the class of solutions obtained by the Galerkin method. For this class we show the existence and smoothness of pullback, uniform, and cocycle attractors and the relations between them. We also prove that these non-autonomous attractors converge upper-semicontinuously to the global attractor for the limit autonomous problem if the time-dependent nonlinearity tends to tim…
We demonstrate the global existence of weak solutions to a class of semilinear strongly damped wave equations possessing nonlinear hyperbolic dynamic boundary conditions. Our work assumes $(-Δ_W)^θ\partial_tu$ with $θ\in[\frac{1}{2},1)$ and where $Δ_W$ is the Wentzell-Laplacian. Hence, the associated linear operator admits a compact resolvent. A balance condition is assumed to hold between the nonlinearity defined on the interior of the domain and the nonlinearity on the boundary. This allows for arbitrary (supercritical) polynomial growth on each potential, as well as mixed dissipative/anti-d…
In this paper, we deal with the initial value fractional damped wave equation on $G$, a compact Lie group, with power-type nonlinearity. The aim of this manuscript is twofold. First, using the Fourier analysis on compact Lie groups, we prove a local in-time existence result in the energy space for the fractional damped wave equation on $G$. Moreover, a finite time blow-up result is established under certain conditions on the initial data. In the next part of the paper, we consider fractional wave equation with lower order terms, that is, damping and mass with the same power type nonlinearity o…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the damped wave equations with variable coefficients a(x) having power type nonlinearity |u|^p. We discuss the global existence of solutions for small initial data and investigate the relation between the range of a(x) and the order p.
We study the global existence of solutions to semilinear damped wave equations in the scattering case with derivative power-type nonlinearity on (1+3) dimensional nontrapping asymptotically Euclidean manifolds. The main idea is to exploit local energy estimate, together with local existence to convert the parameter $μ$ to small one.
We consider the asymptotic behavior of the soltion to the wave equation with time-dependent damping and analytic nonlinearity. Our main goal is to prove the convergence of a global solution to an equilibrium as time goes to infinity by means of a suitable Lojasiewicz-Simon type inequality.
We consider the strongly damped Klein Gordon equation for defocusing nonlinearity and we study the asymptotic behaviour of the energy for periodic solutions. We prove first the exponential decay to zero for zero mean solutions. Then, we characterize the limit of the energy, when the time tends to infinity, for solutions with small enough initial data and we finally prove that such limit is not necessary zero.
We prove the global existence of small data solution in all space dimension for weakly coupled systems of semi-linear effectively damped wave, with different time-dependent coefficients in the dissipation terms. Moreover, nonlinearity terms $ f(t,u) $ and $ g(t,v) $ satisfying some properties of the parabolic equation. We study the problem in several classes of regularity.
We study the global existence of solutions to semilinear wave equations with power-type nonlinearity and general lower order terms on $n$ dimensional nontrapping asymptotically Euclidean manifolds, when $n=3, 4$. In addition, we prove almost global existence with sharp lower bound of the lifespan for the four dimensional critical problem.
The dissipative wave equation with a critical quintic nonlinearity in smooth bounded three dimensional domain is considered. Based on the recent extension of the Strichartz estimates to the case of bounded domains, the existence of a compact global attractor for the solution semigroup of this equation is established. Moreover, the smoothness of the obtained attractor is also shown.
We consider the nonlinear Choquard equation $$\begin{cases} & - Δu = (I_α\ast F(u))F'(u) -μu \ \text{in}\ \mathbb{R}^N, & u \in \ H^1(\mathbb{R}^N), \ \int_{\mathbb{R}^N} |u|^2 dx=m, \end{cases} $$ where $α\in(0,N)$, $m>0$ is prescribed, $μ\in \mathbb{R}$ is a Lagarange multiplier, and $I_α$ is the Riesz potential. Under general assumptions on the nonlinearity $F,$ we prove the existence and multiplicity of normalized solutions.
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for linear dissipative generalized Klein-Gordon equations with nonlinear memory in the right hand side. Our goal is to study the effect of this nonlinearity on both the decay estimates of global solutions as well as the admissible range of the exponent p.
We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions for the semilinear damped wave equation with variable coefficients. We prove that if the damping is effective, and the nonlinearity and other lower order terms can be regarded as perturbations, then the solution is approximated by the scaled Gaussian of the corresponding linear parabolic problem. The proof is based on the scaling variables and energy estimates.
In our previous two works, we studied the blow-up and lifespan estimates for damped wave equations with a power nonlinearity of the solution or its derivative, with scattering damping independently. In this work, we are devoted to establishing a similar result for a combined nonlinearity. Comparing to the result of wave equation without damping, one can say that the scattering damping has no influence.
The aim of this paper is to prove a blow up result of the solution for a semilinear scale invariant damped wave equation under a suitable decay condition on radial initial data. The admissible range for the power of the nonlinear term depends both on the damping coefficient and on the pointwise decay order of the initial data. In addition we give an upper bound estimate for the lifespan of the solution, in terms of the power of the nonlinearity, size and growth of initial data.
In this paper, the aim of our work is to establish global weighted gradient estimates via fractional maximal functions and the point-wise regularity estimates of Dirichlet problem for divergence elliptic equations of the type \begin{align*} \mathrm{div}(A(x,\nabla u)) = \mathrm{div}(f) \ \text{in} \ Ω, \mbox{ and } \ u = g \ \text{on} \ \partial Ω, \end{align*} that related to Riesz potentials. Here, in our setting, $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \ge 2$ is a bounded Reifenberg flat domain (that its boundary is sufficiently flat in sense of Reifenberg) and the small-BMO condition (small bounded me…
We study the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear damped wave equation. Under suitable assumptions for the nonlinearity and the initial data, we obtain the global solution which satisfies weighted $L^1$ and $L^\infty$ estimates. Furthermore, we establish the higher order asymptotic expansion of the solution. This means that we construct the nonlinear approximation of the global solution with respect to the weight of the data. Our proof is based on the approximation formula of the linear solution, which is given in [36], and the nonlinear approximation theory for a nonlinear parabolic equation develo…
Main purpose of this paper is to study the following semi-linear structurally damped wave equation with nonlinearity of derivative type: $$u_{tt}- Δu+ μ(-Δ)^{σ/2} u_t= |u_t|^p,\quad u(0,x)= u_0(x),\quad u_t(0,x)=u_1(x),$$ with $μ>0$, $n\geq1$, $σ\in (0,2]$ and $p>1$. In particular, we are going to prove the non-existence of global weak solutions by using a new test function and suitable sign assumptions on the initial data in both the subcritical case and the critical case.
We prove by using an iteration argument some blow-up results for a semilinear damped wave equation in generalized Einstein-de Sitter spacetime with a time-dependent coefficient for the damping term and power nonlinearity. Then, we conjecture an expression for the critical exponent due to the main blow-up results, which is consistent with many special cases of the considered model and provides a natural generalization of Strauss exponent. In the critical case, we consider a non-autonomous and parameter-dependent Cauchy problem for a linear ODE of second-order, whose explicit solutions are deter…
We study the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear damped wave equation and establish the large data local well-posedness and small data global well-posedness with slowly decaying initial data. We also prove that the asymptotic profile of the global solution is given by a solution of the corresponding parabolic problem, which shows that the solution of the damped wave equation has the diffusion phenomena. Moreover, we show blow-up of solution and give the estimate of the lifespan for a subcritical nonlinearity. In particular, we determine the critical exponent for any space dimension.
We consider a nonlinear Timoshenko system of partial differential equations (PDEs) with a frictional damping term in rotation angle. The nonlinearity is due to the arbitrary dependence on the rotation moment. A Lie symmetry group classification of the arbitrary function of rotation moment is presented. An optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras of the nonlinear damped Timoshenko system is derived for all the non-linear cases. All possible invariant variables of the optimal systems for the three non-linear cases are presented. The corresponding reduced systems of ordinary differential equ…
We are interested in the differential equation $\ddot u(t) = -A u(t) - c A \dot u(t) + λu(t) + F(t,u(t))$, where $c > 0$ is a damping factor, $A$ is a sectorial operator and $F$ is a continuous map. We consider the situation where the equation is at resonance at infinity, which means that $λ$ is an eigenvalue of $A$ and $F$ is a bounded map. We introduce new geometrical conditions for the nonlinearity $F$ and use topological degree methods to find $T$-periodic solutions for this equation as fixed points of Poincaré operator.
We investigate the initial-value problem for the semilinear plate equation containing localized strong damping, localized weak damping and nonlocal nonlinearity. We prove that if nonnegative damping coefficients are strictly positive almost everywhere in the exterior of some ball and the sum of these coefficients is positive a.e. in $% \mathbb{R} ^{n}$, then the semigroup generated by the considered problem possesses a global attractor in $H^{2}\left( \mathbb{R} ^{n}\right) \times L^{2}\left( \mathbb{R} ^{n}\right) $. We also establish boundedness of this attractor in $ H^{3}\left( \mathbb{R} …
We consider a singular limit problem from the damped wave equation with a power type nonlinearity to the corresponding heat equation. We call our singular limit problem non-delay limit. Our proofs are based on the argument for non-relativistic limit from the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation by the second author, Nakanishi, and Ozawa (2002), Nakanishi (2002), and Masmoudi and Nakanishi (2002). We can obtain better results for the non-delay limit problem than that for the non-relativistic limit problem due to the dissipation property. More precisely, we get t…
Blow-up and lifespan estimate for the generalized tricomi equation with the scale-invariant damping and time derivative nonlinearity on exterior domain
Under fairly general assumptions, we prove that every compact invariant subset $\mathcal I$ of the semiflow generated by the semilinear damped wave equation εu_{tt}+u_t+β(x)u-\sum_{ij}(a_{ij} (x)u_{x_j})_{x_i}&=f(x,u),&& (t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\timesΩ, u&=0,&&(t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\times\partialΩin $H^1_0(Ω)\times L^2(Ω)$ is in fact bounded in $D(\mathbf A)\times H^1_0(Ω)$. Here $Ω$ is an arbitrary, possibly unbounded, domain in $\R^3$, $\mathbf A u=β(x)u-\sum_{ij}(a_{ij}(x)u_{x_j})_{x_i}$ is a positive selfadjoint elliptic operator and $f(x,u)$ is a nonlinearity of critical growth. The nonlinearity …
Under fairly general assumptions, we prove that every compact invariant set $\mathcal I$ of the semiflow generated by the semilinear damped wave equation u_{tt}+αu_t+β(x)u-\Deltau = f(x,u), (t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\timesΩ, u = 0, (t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\times\partialΩin $H^1_0(Ω)\times L^2(Ω) has finite Hausdorff and fractal dimension. Here $Ω$ is a regular, possibly unbounded, domain in $\R^3$ and $f(x,u)$ is a nonlinearity of critical growth. The nonlinearity $f(x,u)$ needs not to satisfy any dissipativeness assumption and the invariant subset $\mathcal I$ needs not to be an attractor. If $f(x,u)$ is…
We study semilinear damped wave equations with power nonlinearity $|u|^p$ and initial data belonging to Sobolev spaces of negative order $\dot{H}^{-γ}$. In the present paper, we obtain a new critical exponent $p=p_{\mathrm{crit}}(n,γ):=1+\frac{4}{n+2γ}$ for some $γ\in(0,\frac{n}{2})$ and low dimensions in the framework of Soblev spaces of negative order. Precisely, global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev solutions of lower regularity is proved for $p>p_{\mathrm{crit}}(n,γ)$, and blow-up of weak solutions in finite time even for small data if $1<p<p_{\mathrm{crit}}(n,γ)$. Furthermore, …
In the spirit of Berestycki and Lions, we prove the existence of saddle type nodal solutions for the Choquard equation \[ -Δu + u= \big(I_α\ast F(u)\big)F'(u)\qquad \text{ in }\;\mathbb{R}^N \] where $N\geq 2$ and $I_α$ is the Riesz potential of order $α\in (0,N)$. Without any compact setting, we construct saddle solutions in a unified way for the Choquard equation whose nodal domains are of cone shapes demonstrating Coxeter's symmetric configurations in $\mathbb R^N$. Moreover, if $F'$ is odd and has constant sign on $(0,+\infty)$, then the saddle solution maintains signed on the fundamental …
