Abstract: We consider the initial-boundary value problem of semilinear wave equation with nonlinearity |u|p in exterior domain in mathbfRN (Ngeq3). Especially, the lifespan of blowup solutions with small initial data are studied. The result gives upper bounds of lifespan which is essentially the same as the Cauchy problem in mathbfRN. At least in the case N=4, their estimates are sharp in view of the work by Zha--Zhou (2015). The idea of the proof is to use special solutions to linear wave equation with Dirichlet boundary condition which are constructed via an argument based on Wakasa--Yordanov.


The authors consider the initial-boundary value problem of semilinear wave equation with nonlinearity \(|u|^p\) in exterior domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{N} (N\geq 3)\). For small data solutions, they give upper bounds of lifespan, which are essentially the same as the Cauchy problem in \(\mathbb{R}^{N}\). In the case \(N=4\), their estimates are sharp in view of the work by \textit{D. Zha} and \textit{Y. Zhou} [J. Math. Pures Appl. (9) 103, No. 3, 788--808 (2015; Zbl 1320.35230)].
