Abstract
In this project, we are interested in the asymptotic behavior (in time) of solutions for some linear hyperbolic equations or more in general, for evolution equations. The results are derived by developing a suitable WKB analysis.We plan to study both models with constant coefficients and with time-dependent coefficients as well. In the case of time-dependent coefficients, we will assume suitable regularity and a sufficient control of the oscillations. Also, the interaction of the time-dependent coefficients will be studied to avoid bad influence on the asymptotic profile, or to obtain better decay estimates.We plan to apply these estimates to study semi-linear problems. In particular, we are interested in proving results about global existence (in time) of the solution, possibly assuming small initial data.In a first moment, we will mainly consider wave-type equations, possibly with damping terms, and with nonlocal terms, like fractional powers of theLaplacian. In this way we cover external and structural damping up to the visco-elastic case. Finally, we plan to study evolution equations and, if possible, first-order systems. (AU)
