Decay characterization of solutions to semi-linear structurally damped $σ$-evolution equations with time-dependent damping
In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem to the linear damped $σ$-evolution equation with time-dependent damping in the effective cases \begin{equation*} u_{t t}+(-Δ)^σu+b(t)(-Δ)^δu_t=0, \end{equation*} and investigate the decay rates of the solution and its derivatives that are expressed in terms of the decay character of the initial data $u_0(x)=u(0, x)$ and $u_1(x)=u_t(0, x)$. We are interested also in the existence and decay rate of the global in time solution with small data for the corresponding semi-linear problem with the nonlinear term of power type $||D|^γu|^p$. The blow-up results for solutions to the semi-linear problem in the case $γ=0$ are presented to show the sharpness of the exponent $p$.
