Abstract

In this paper we consider a semi-linear, defocusing, shifted wave equation on the hyperbolic space t2u(ΔHn+ρ2)u=up1u,(x,t)Hn×R; \partial_t^2 u - (\Delta_{{\mathbb H}^n} + \rho^2) u = - |u|^{p-1} u, \quad (x,t)\in {\mathbb H}^n \times {\mathbb R}; and introduce a Morawetz-type inequality TT+Hnup+1dμdt<CE, \int_{-T_-}^{T_+} \int_{{\mathbb H}^n} |u|^{p+1} d\mu dt < C E, where EE is the energy. Combining this inequality with a well-posedness theory, we can establish a scattering result for solutions with initial data in H1/2,1/2×H1/2,1/2(Hn)H^{1/2,1/2} \times H^{1/2,-1/2}({\mathbb H}^n) if 2n62 \leq n \leq 6 and 1<p<pc=1+4/(n2)1<p<p_c = 1+ 4/(n-2). As another application we show that a solution to the quintic wave equation t2uΔu=u4u\partial_t^2 u - \Delta u = - |u|^4 u on R2{\mathbb R}^2 scatters if its initial data are radial and satisfy the conditions u0(x),u1(x)A(x+1)3/2ε;u0(x)A(x)1/2ε;ε>0. |\nabla u_0 (x)|, |u_1 (x)| \leq A(|x|+1)^{-3/2-\varepsilon};\quad |u_0 (x)| \leq A(|x|)^{-1/2-\varepsilon};\quad \varepsilon >0.
