Decay of solutions for a system of nonlinear wave equations

Xiao Wei

Abstract:
This article concerns the decay of solutions of the semi-linear wave equation
$$
  u_{tt}+\delta u_t-\phi(x)\triangle u=\lambda u|u|^{\beta-1}\quad
 x\in \mathbb{R}^N\; t\geq0
 $$
Introducing an appropriate Lyaponuv function, we find exponential decay for certain initial data.
