Scattering for the Klein-Gordon equation with quadratic and variable coefficient cubic nonlinearities
Abstract
We study the 1D Klein-Gordon equation with variable coefficient cubic nonlinearity. This problem exhibits a striking resonant interaction between the spatial frequencies of the nonlinear coefficients and the temporal oscillations of the solutions. In the case where the worst of this resonant behavior is absent, we prove L-Infinity scattering as well as a certain kind of strong smoothness for the solution at time-like infinity with the help of several new normal-forms transformations. Some explicit examples are also given which suggest qualitatively different behavior in the case where the strongest cubic resonances are present.
