The Cauchy Problem

We consider the Cauchy problem for the damped wave equation with time-dependent damping and a power-type nonlinearity |u|ρ. For some large initial data, we will show that the solution to the damped wave equation will blow up within a finite time. Moreover, we can show the upper bound of the life-span of the solution.

The Cauchy Problem

We derive L∞–L1 decay rate estimates for solutions of the shifted wave equation on certain symmetric spaces (M, g). The Cauchy problem for the shifted wave operator on these spaces was studied by Helgason, who obtained a closed form for its solution. Our results extend to this new context the classical estimates for the wave equation in ℝn. Then, following an idea from Klainerman, we introduce a new norm based on Lie derivatives with respect to Killing fields on M and we derive an estimate for the case that n = dim M is odd.
