Global in-time rough large data solution to complex-valued semilinear damped evolution equations

We study the semilinear Cauchy problem for complex-valued damped evolution equations \begin{align*} \partial_t^2u+(-\Delta)^{\sigma}u+(-\Delta)^{\delta}\partial_tu=u^p,\ \ u(0,x)=u_0(x),\ \partial_tu(0,x)=u_1(x), \end{align*} with $\delta\in[0,\sigma]$, $\sigma\in\mathbb{R}_+$ and $p\in\mathbb{N}_+\backslash\{1\}$, where the initial data belong to the rough space $E^{\alpha}_s$ endowed with the norm \begin{align*} \|f\|_{E^{\alpha}_s}=\big\|\langle\xi\rangle^s\,2^{\alpha|\xi|}\widehat{f}(\xi)\big\|_{L^2}\ \ \mbox{with}\ \ \alpha<0, \ s\in\mathbb{R}. \end{align*} Concerning $(u_0,u_1)\in E^{\alpha}_{s+\bar{\kappa}}\times E^{\alpha}_s$ when $s\geqslant\frac{n}{2}-\frac{2\kappa+\bar{\kappa}-2\delta}{p-1}-\bar{\kappa}$ with $\kappa=\min\{2\delta,\sigma\}$ and $\bar{\kappa}=\max\{2\delta,\sigma\}$ whose Fourier transforms are supported in a suitable subset of first octant, we prove a global in-time existence result without requiring the smallness of rough initial data.

Evolution models with time-dependent coefficients in friction and viscoelastic damping terms

We study the following Cauchy problem for the linear wave equation with both time-dependent friction and time-dependent viscoelastic damping: \begin{equation} \label{EqAbstract}\tag{$\ast$} \begin{cases} u_{tt}- \Delta u + b(t)u_t - g(t)\Delta u_t=0, &(t,x) \in (0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^n, \\ u(0,x)= u_0(x),\quad u_t(0,x)= u_1(x), &x \in \mathbb{R}^n. \end{cases} \end{equation} Our goal is to derive decay estimates for higher order energy norms of solutions to this problem. We focus on the interplay between the time-dependent coefficients in both damping terms and their influence on the qualitative behavior of solutions. The analysis is based on a classification of the damping mechanisms, frictional damping $b(t)u_t$ and viscoelastic damping $-g(t)\Delta u_t$ as well, and employs the WKB-method in the extended phase space.

Critical curve for a weakly coupled system of semi-linear $\sigma$-evolution equations with different damping types

In this paper, we would like to consider the Cauchy problem for a weakly coupled system of semi linear $sigma$ evolution equations with different damping mechanisms for any $\sigma>1$, parabolic like damping and $\sigma$ evolution like damping. Motivated strongly by the well known Nakao's problem, the main goal of this work is to determine the critical curve between the power exponents $p$ and $q$ of nonlinear terms by not only establishing the global well posedness property of small data solutions but also indicating blow up in finite time solutions. We want to point out that the application of a modified test function associated with a judicious choice of test functions really plays an essential role to show a blow up result for solutions and upper bound estimates for lifespan of solutions, where $\sigma$ is assumed to be any fractional number. To end this paper, lower bound estimates for lifespan of solutions are also shown to verify their sharp results in some spatial dimensions

Visco-elastic damped wave models with time-dependent coefficient

In this paper, we study the following Cauchy problem for linear visco-elastic damped wave models with a general time-dependent coefficient $g=g(t)$: \begin{equation} \label{EqAbstract} \tag{$\star$} \begin{cases} u_{tt}- \Delta u + g(t)(-\Delta)u_t=0, &(t,x) \in (0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^n, \\ u(0,x)= u_0(x),\quad u_t(0,x)= u_1(x), &x \in \mathbb{R}^n. \end{cases} \end{equation} We are interested to study the influence of the damping term $g(t)(-\Delta)u_t$ on qualitative properties of solutions to \eqref{EqAbstract} as decay estimates for energies of higher order and the parabolic effect. The main tools are related to WKB-analysis. We apply elliptic as well as hyperbolic WKB-analysis in different parts of the extended phase space.

On the critical regularity of nonlinearities for semilinear classical wave equations

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for semilinear classical wave equations \begin{equation*} u_{tt}-Δu=|u|^{p_S(n)}μ(|u|) \end{equation*} with the Strauss exponent $p_S(n)$ and a modulus of continuity $μ=μ(τ)$, which provides an additional regularity of nonlinearities in $u=0$ comparing with the power nonlinearity $|u|^{p_S(n)}$. We obtain a sharp condition on $μ$ as a threshold between global (in time) existence of small data radial solutions by deriving polynomial-logarithmic type weighted $L^{\infty}_tL^{\infty}_r$ estimates, and blow-up of solutions in finite time even for small data by applying iteration methods with slicing procedure. These results imply the critical regularity of source nonlinearities for semilinear classical wave equations.

On the critical exponent and sharp lifespan estimates for semilinear damped wave equations with data from Sobolev spaces of negative order

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 order to more accurately describe the blow-up time, we investigate sharp upper bound and lower bound estimates for the lifespan in the subcritical case.

The interplay of critical regularity of nonlinearities in a weakly coupled system of semi-linear damped wave equations

We would like to study a weakly coupled system of semi-linear classical damped wave equations with moduli of continuity in nonlinearities whose powers belong to the critical curve in the $p-q$ plane. The main goal of this paper is to find out the sharp conditions of these moduli of continuity which classify between global (in time) existence of small data solutions and finite time blow-up of solutions.

Blow-up of solutions to Nakao's problem via an iteration argument

In this paper, we consider blow-up behavior of weak solutions to a weakly coupled system for a semilinear damped wave equation and a semilinear wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$. This problem is part of the so-called Nakao's problem proposed by Professor Mitsuhiro Nakao (Kyushu University) for a critical relation between the exponents $p$ and $q$. By applying an iteration method for unbounded multipliers with a slicing procedure, we prove blow-up of weak solutions for Nakao's problem even for small data. We improve the blow-up result and upper bound estimates for lifespan comparing with the previous research, especially, in higher dimensional cases.

A blow-up result for semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution equations

We would like to prove a blow-up result for semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution equations, where $σ\ge 1$ and $δ\in [0,σ)$ are assumed to be any fractional numbers. To deal with the fractional Laplacian operators $(-Δ)^σ$ and $(-Δ)^δ$ as well-known non-local operators, in general, it seems difficult to apply the standard test function method directly. For this reason, in this paper we shall construct new test functions to overcome this difficulty.

The influence of oscillations on energy estimates for damped wave models with time-dependent propagation speed and dissipation

The aim of this paper is to derive higher order energy estimates for solutions to the Cauchy problem for damped wave models with time-dependent propagation speed and dissipation. The model of interest is \begin{equation*} u_{tt}-λ^2(t)ω^2(t)Δu +ρ(t)ω(t)u_t=0, \quad u(0,x)=u_0(x), \,\, u_t(0,x)=u_1(x). \end{equation*} The coefficients $λ=λ(t)$ and $ρ=ρ(t)$ are shape functions and $ω=ω(t)$ is an oscillating function. If $ω(t)\equiv1$ and $ρ(t)u_t$ is an "effective" dissipation term, then $L^2-L^2$ energy estimates are proved in [2]. In contrast, the main goal of the present paper is to generalize the previous results to coefficients including an oscillating function in the time-dependent coefficients. We will explain how the interplay between the shape functions and oscillating behavior of the coefficient will influence energy estimates.

Critical regularity of nonlinearities in semilinear classical damped wave equations

In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for the semilinear damped wave equation $u_{tt}-Δu + u_t = h(u);\qquad u(0;x) = f(x); \quad u_t(0;x) = g(x);$ where $h(s) = |s|^{1+2/n}μ(|s|)$. Here n is the space dimension and $μ$ is a modulus of continuity. Our goal is to obtain sharp conditions on $μ$ to obtain a threshold between global (in time) existence of small data solutions (stability of the zerosolution) and blow-up behavior even of small data solutions.

An application of $L^1$ estimates for oscillating integrals to parabolic like semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution models

We study the following Cauchy problems for semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution models: \begin{equation*} u_{tt}+ (-Δ)^σu+ μ(-Δ)^δu_t = f(u,u_t),\, u(0,x)= u_0(x),\, u_t(0,x)=u_1(x) \end{equation*} with $σ\ge 1$, $μ>0$ and $δ\in (0,\fracσ{2})$. Here the function $f(u,u_t)$ stands for the power nonlinearities $|u|^{p}$ and $|u_t|^{p}$ with a given number $p>1$. We are interested in investigating $L^{1}$ estimates for oscillating integrals in the presentation of the solutions to the corresponding linear models with vanishing right-hand sides by applying the theory of modified Bessel functions and Faà di Bruno's formula. By assuming additional $L^{m}$ regularity on the initial data, we use $(L^{m}\cap L^{q})- L^{q}$ and $L^{q}- L^{q}$ estimates with $q\in (1,\infty)$ and $m\in [1,q)$, to prove the global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev solutions to the above semi-linear models from suitable function spaces basing on $L^q$ spaces.

$L^1$ estimates for oscillating integrals and their applications to semi-linear models with $σ$-evolution like structural damping

The present paper is a continuation of our recent paper \cite{DaoReissig}. We will consider the following Cauchy problems for semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution models: \begin{equation*} u_{tt}+ (-Δ)^σu+ μ(-Δ)^δu_t = f(u,u_t),\, u(0,x)= u_0(x),\, u_t(0,x)=u_1(x) \end{equation*} with $σ\ge 1$, $μ>0$ and $δ\in (\fracσ{2},σ]$. Our aim is to study two main models including $σ$-evolution models with structural damping $δ\in (\fracσ{2},σ)$ and those with visco-elastic damping $δ=σ$. Here the function $f(u,u_t)$ stands for power nonlinearities $|u|^{p}$ and $|u_t|^{p}$ with a given number $p>1$. We are interested in investigating the global (in time) existence of small data solutions to the above semi-linear models from suitable spaces basing on $L^q$ space by assuming additional $L^{m}$ regularity on the initial data, with $q\in (1,\infty)$ and $m\in [1,q)$.

Weakly coupled systems of semi-linear elastic waves with different damping mechanisms in 3D

We consider the following Cauchy problem for weakly coupled systems of semi-linear damped elastic waves with a power source non-linearity in three-dimensions: \begin{equation*} U_{tt}-a^2ΔU-\big(b^2-a^2\big)\nabla\text{div } U+(-Δ)^θU_t=F(U),\,\, (t,x)\in[0,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^3, \end{equation*} where $U=U(t,x)=\big(U^{(1)}(t,x),U^{(2)}(t,x),U^{(3)}(t,x)\big)^{\mathrm{T}}$ with $b^2>a^2>0$ and $θ\in[0,1]$. Our interests are some qualitative properties of solutions to the corresponding linear model with vanishing right-hand side and the influence of the value of $θ$ on the exponents $p_1,p_2,p_3$ in $F(U)=\big(|U^{(3)}|^{p_1},|U^{(1)}|^{p_2},|U^{(2)}|^{p_3}\big)^{\mathrm{T}}$ to get results for the global (in time) existence of small data solutions.

A generalized Levi condition for weakly hyperbolic Cauchy problems with coefficients low regular in time and smooth in space

We consider the Cauchy problem for weakly hyperbolic $m$-th order partial differential equations with coefficients low-regular in time and smooth in space. It is well-known that in general one has to impose Levi conditions to get $C^\infty$ or Gevrey well-posedness even if the coefficients are smooth. We use moduli of continuity to describe the regularity of the coefficients with respect to time, weight sequences for the characterization of their regularity with respect to space and weight functions to define the solution spaces. Furthermore, we propose a generalized Levi condition that models the influence of multiple characteristics more freely. We establish sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem, that link the Levi condition as well as the modulus of continuity and the weight sequence of the coefficients to the weight function of the solution space. Additionally, we obtain that the influences of the Levi condition and the low regularity of coefficients on the weight function of the solution space are independent of each other.

Fujita versus Strauss - a never ending story

In this paper, we obtain a blow-up result for solutions to a semi-linear wave equation with scale-invariant dissipation and mass and power non-linearity, in the case in which the model has a "wave like" behavior. In order to achieve this goal, we perform a change of variables that transforms our starting equation in a strictly hyperbolic semi-linear wave equation with time-dependent speed of propagation. Then, we apply Kato's lemma to find a blow-up result for solutions to the transformed equation under some support and sign assumptions on the initial data. A special emphasis is placed on the limit case, that is, when the exponent p is exactly equal to the upper bound of the range of admissible values of p for which this blow-up result is valid. In this critical case an explicit integral representation formula for solutions of the corresponding linear Cauchy problem in 1d is derived. Finally, carrying out the inverse change of variables we get a non-existence result for global (in time) solutions to the original model.
