Klein-Gordon type decay rates for wave equations with time-dependent coefficients

Michael ReissigKaren Yagdjian — 2000

Banach Center Publications

This work is concerned with the proof of L p - L q decay estimates for solutions of the Cauchy problem for the Klein-Gordon type equation u t t - λ 2 ( t ) b 2 ( t ) ( Δ u - m 2 u ) = 0 . The coefficient consists of an increasing smooth function λ and an oscillating smooth and bounded function b which are uniformly separated from zero. Moreover, m 2 is a positive constant. We study under which assumptions for λ and b one can expect as an essential part of the decay rate the classical Klein-Gordon decay rate n/2(1/p-1/q).

Non-Lipschitz coefficients for strictly hyperbolic equations

Fumihiko HirosawaMichael Reissig — 2004

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

In the present paper we explain the classification of oscillations and its relation to the loss of derivatives for a homogeneous hyperbolic operator of second order. In this way we answer the open question if the assumptions to get C well posedness for weakly hyperbolic Cauchy problems or for strictly hyperbolic Cauchy problems with non-Lipschitz coefficients are optimal.
