The initial value problem for the quadratic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (Q606155)

Summary: We study the initial value problem for the quadratic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation \({\mathcal L}u=\langle i\partial_x\rangle^{-1}\bar u^2\), \((t,x)\in\mathbb R\times\mathbb R\), \(u(0,x)= u_0(x)\), \(x\in\mathbb R\), where \({\mathcal L}=\partial_t+ i\langle i\partial_x\rangle\) and \(\langle i\partial_x\rangle= \overline{1-\partial_x^2}\). Using the Shatah normal forms method, we obtain a sharp asymptotic behavior of small solutions without the condition of a compact support on the initial data which was assumed in the previous works.
