Asymptotic theory for weakly non-linear wave equations in semi-infinite domains

Chirakkal V. Easwaran

Abstract:
We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of a class of weakly non-linear wave equations in a semi-infinite region $0\le x$, $t< L/\sqrt{|\epsilon|}$ under arbitrary initial and boundary conditions. We also establish the asymptotic validity of formal perturbation approximations of the solutions in this region.
