Generically sharp decay for quasilinear wave equations with null condition

Analysis of PDEs 2022-12-26 v1

Abstract

We are interested in the three-dimensional quasilinear wave equations with null condition. Global existence and pointwise decay for this model have been proved in the celebrated works of Klainerman \cite{Klainerman86} and Christodoulou \cite{Christodoulou86} for small smooth initial data. In this work, we illustrate the precise pointwise asymptotic behavior of the solutions for initial data posed on a hyperboloid and show that the decay rate v1u1v^{-1}u^{-1} is optimal for a generic set of initial data.
