The exact controllability of a semilinear wave equation in a bounded open domain ofRn, with controls on a part of the boundary and in the interior, is shown. Feedback laws are established.

1. It is well known that solutions of the Cauchy problem for the wave equation represent disturbances obeying the laws of geometrical optics. Specifically a solution ψ of the wave equationfor which ψ = δψ/δt = 0 initially outside a surface C0, vanishes at time t in the exterior of a surface Ct parallel to and at a normal distance ct from C0 (see e.g. (l), page 643). Analogous results hold for the solutions of any linear hyperbolic second-order partial differential equation with boundary-value conditions of the Cauchy type. Boundary conditions of the type representing reflexion have been treated by Friedlander(2). He showed that as well as the incident and reflected wavefronts, there sometimes exists a ‘shadow’ where diffraction occurs, and that the diffracted wave fronts are normal to the reflecting surface, the corresponding rays travelling along the surface and leaving it tangentially. The purpose of this paper is to extend these results to refraction, where instead of a purely reflecting surface we have an interface between two different homogeneous media.

We study the effects of large diffusivity in all parts of the domain in a linearly damped wave equation subject to standard zero Robin-type boundary conditions. In the linear case, we show in a given sense that the asymptotic behaviour of solutions verifies a second-order ordinary differential equation. In the semilinear case, under suitable dissipative assumptions on the nonlinear term, we prove the existence of a global attractor for fixed diffusion and that the limiting attractor for large diffusion is finite dimensional.

In this paper, we consider a degenerate hyperbolic inequality in an exterior domain under three types of boundary conditions: Dirichlet-type, Neumann-type, and Robin-type boundary conditions. Using a unified approach, we show that all the considered problems have the same Fujita critical exponent. Moreover, we answer some open questions from the literature regarding the critical case.
