In this work we consider weakly non-radiative solutions to both linear and non-linear wave equations. We first characterize all weakly non-radiative free waves, without the radial assumption. Then in dimension 3 we show that the initial data of non-radiative solutions to a wide range of nonlinear wave equations are similar to those of non-radiative free waves in term of asymptotic behaviour.
In this work we give a few explicit formulas regarding the radiation fields of linear free waves. We then apply these formulas on the channel of energy theory. We characterize all the radial weakly non-radiative solutions in all dimensions and give a few new exterior energy estimates.
We consider finite-energy solutions to the defocusing nonlinear wave equation in two dimensional space. We prove that almost all energy moves to the infinity at almost the light speed as time tends to infinity. In addition, the inward/outward part of energy gradually vanishes as time tends to positive/negative infinity. These behaviours resemble those of free waves. We also prove some decay estimates of the solutions if the initial data decay at a certain rate as the spatial variable tends to infinity. As an application, we prove a couple of scattering results for solutions whose initial data are in a weighted energy space. Our assumption on decay rate of initial data is weaker than previous known scattering results.
