Global existence for some 4-D quasilinear wave equations with low regularity (Q1741943)

In this paper, the authors prove the global existence for some 4-D quasilinear wave equations with small and radial data in \(H^3\times H^2\). The main idea is to exploit local energy estimates with variable coefficients, together with the trace estimates. This concise paper is a good choice for the people who want to learn how to study the low regularity solutions of nonlinear wave equations in the radial case by using the local energy estimates.
