In this paper we prove a local existence theorem for a Cauchy problem associated to a semi linear wave equation with an exponential nonlinearity in two dimension space. In this problem, the first Cauchy data is equal to zero, the second is in , radially symmetric and compactly supported. To prove this theorem, we first show a Moser-Trudinger type inequality for the linear problem and then we use a fixed point method to achieve the proof of the result.
We give sufficient conditions for the existence of global small solutions to the quasilinear dissipative hyperbolic equation corresponding to initial values and source terms of sufficiently small size, as well as of small solutions to the corresponding stationary version, i.e. the quasilinear elliptic equation We then give conditions for the convergence, as , of the solution of the evolution equation to its stationary state.
