Decay of solutions of some nonlinear wave equations

From MaRDI portal





The authors present numerous results on solutions to the equations \[ (1)\quad u_ t+u_ x+uu_ x-\nu u_ x-u_{xxt}=0, \] and \[ (2)\quad u_ t+u_ x+uu_ x-\nu u_{xx}+u_{xxx}\quad (plus\quad initial\quad conditions) \] which are called regularized long-wave equation with a Burgers-type dissipative term appended and Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation respectively. Many results on (sharp) decay rates as \(t\to \infty\) for solutions to these equations with respect to various norms \((L^ 2,L^{\infty},...)\) are given. The proofs are detailed and written in a broad readable style with lots of comments starting right from the extensive introduction. Section 2 mainly recalls the well-posedness of (1), (2), section 3 discusses (1) giving decay rates of solutions in various norms. Sect. 4 studies the linearized equation associated to (1) and presents results on the asymptotic behaviour of the slutions using the Fourier transform. Sect. 5 improves the results from sect. 3 using those on the linarized part from sect. 4. Equation (2) is mentioned in sect. 6 the previous considerations for (1) should (all but a few) carry over. Finally the relation to the heat equation is shortly discussed, an interpretation is given and hints to related other interesting equations are given.
