On stabilization and control for the critical Klein-Gordon equation on a 3-D compact manifold (Q629710)

The author studies the internal stabilization and control of the critical nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation on 3D compact manifolds. Under a geometric assumption slightly stronger than the classical geometric control condition, they prove exponential decay for some solutions bounded in the energy space but small in a lower norm. The proof combines profile decomposition and microlocal arguments. This profile decomposition, analogous to the one of \textit{H. Bahouri} and \textit{P. Gérard} [Am. J. Math. 121, No. 1, 131--175 (1999; Zbl 0919.35089)], is performed by taking care of possible geometric effects. It uses some results of \textit{S. Ibrahim} [Commun. Contemp. Math. 6, No. 1, 1--23 (2004; Zbl 1047.35104)] on the behavior of concentrating waves on manifolds.
