Energy decay for the damped wave equation under a pressure condition
نویسندگان
چکیده
We establish the presence of a spectral gap near the real axis for the damped wave equation on a manifold with negative curvature. This results holds under a dynamical condition expressed by the negativity of a topological pressure with respect to the geodesic flow. As an application, we show an exponential decay of the energy for all initial data sufficiently regular. This decay is governed by the imaginary part of a finite number of eigenvalues close to the real axis.

Polynomial decay rate for the dissipative wave equation
This paper is devoted to study the stabilization of the linear wave equation in a bounded domain damped in a subdomain when the geometrical control condition (see [ BLR]) of the work of C. Bardos, G. Lebeau and J. Rauch is not fulfilled. In such case, they [ BLR] proved that the uniform exponential decay rate of the energy cannot be hoped due to the existence of a trapped ray that never reaches...

We prove some decay estimates of the energy of the wave equation governed by localized nonlinear dissipations in a bounded domain in which trapped rays may occur. The approach is based on a comparison with the linear damped wave equation and an interpolation argument. Our result extends to the nonlinear damped wave equation the well-known optimal logarithmic decay rate for the linear damped wav...

The issue of stablity of solutions to nonlinear wave equations has been addressed by many authors. So many results concerning energy decay have been established. Here in this paper we consider the following nonlinearly damped wave equation utt −∆u+ a(1 + |ut|)ut = bu|u|p−2, a, b > 0, in a bounded domain and show that, for suitably chosen initial data, the energy of the solution decays exponenti...

We consider the wave equation with a damping term on a partially rectangular planar domain, assuming that the damping is concentrated close to the non-rectangular part of the domain. Polynomial decay estimates for the energy of the solution are established.
