Abstract: This paper studies the large time existence for the motion of closed hypersurfaces in a radially symmetric potential. In physical, this surface can be considered as an electrically charged membrane with a constant charge per area in a radially symmetric potential. The evolution of such surface has been investigated by Schn"urer and Smoczyk (Evolution of hypersurfaces in central force fields, J. Reine Angew. Math. 550 (2002), 77-95). To study its motion, we introduce a quasi-linear degenerate hyperbolic equation which describes the motion of the surfaces extrinsically. Our main results show that the large time existence of such Cauchy problem and the stability with respect to small initial data. When the radially symmetric potential function vequiv1, the local existence and stability results have been obtained by Notz (Closed Hypersurfaces driven by mean curvature and inner pressure, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 66(5) (2013), 790-819). The proof is based on a new Nash-Moser iteration scheme.
