    Wave equations with time-dependent dissipation II. Effective dissipation

    No full text
    AbstractThis article is intended to present a construction of structural representations of solutions to the Cauchy problem for wave equations with time-dependent dissipation above scaling. These representations are used to give estimates of the solution and its derivatives based on Lq(Rn), q⩾2.The article represents the second part within a series. In [Jens Wirth, Wave equations with time-dependent dissipation I. Non-effective dissipation, J. Differential Equations 222 (2) (2006) 487–514] weak dissipations below scaling were discussed

    Modulus of continuity and decay at infinity in evolution equations with real characteristics

    No full text
    In the hyperbolic Cauchy problem, the well-posedness in Sobolev spaces and the modulus of continuity of the coefficients are deeply connected. This holds true in the more general framework of p-evolution equations with real characteristics where a sharp scale of Hoelder continuity, with respect to the time variable has been established. We show that, for p>1, a lack of regularity in t can be compensated by a decay as the space variable x tends to infinit

    A remark on the uniqueness for backward parabolic operators with non-Lipschitz-continuous coefficients

    Using Bony's paramultiplication we improve a result obtained in [J. Math. Pures Appl. 84 (2005), no. 4, 471--491] for operators having coefficients non-Lipschitz-continuous with respect to tt but C2{\mathcal C}^2 with respect to xx, showing that the same result is valid when C2{\mathcal C}^2 is replaced by C1,ε{\mathcal C}^{1,\varepsilon}, with $\varepsilon>

    Cm-theory of damped wave equations with stabilisation

    No full text
    AbstractThe aim of this note is to extend the energy decay estimates from [J. Wirth, Wave equations with time-dependent-dissipation. I: Non-effective dissipation, J. Differential Equations 222 (2006) 487–514] to a broader class of time-dependent dissipation including very fast oscillations. This is achieved using stabilisation conditions on the coefficient in the spirit of [F. Hirosawa, On the asymptotic behavior of the energy for wave equations with time-depending coefficients, Math. Ann. 339 (4) (2007) 819–839]

    No full text
    Dr. Jens Zimmermann is a German-Canadian philosopher and J.I. Packer Professor of Theology at Regent College. As the author of Hermeneutics: A Very Short Introduction, he held a lecture titled “Gadamer, Ricoeur and the Future of Philosophical Hermeneutics” at SFU. Hosted by the Department of World Languages and Literatures, the lecture focused on how we can use the art of hermeneutics to interpret literature and our identities of being human

    On the Cauchy problem for hyperbolic operators with double characteristics

    No full text
    The aim of this work is to provide a survey, along with new recent results, of what is known about the C^infty well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for hyperbolic operators with doubel characteristics. Some conjectures and open problems will also be presented
