Abstract

In this short paper we consider a semi-linear, energy sub-critical, defocusing wave equation t2uΔu=up1u\partial_t^2 u - \Delta u = - |u|^{p -1} u in the 3-dimensional space with p(3,5)p \in (3,5). We prove that if the energy of radial initial data (u0,u1)(u_0, u_1) outside a ball of radius rr centred at the origin decays faster than a certain rate rκ(p)r^{-\kappa(p)}, then the corresponding solution uu must scatter in both two time directions. The main tool of our proof is a more detailed version of the classic Morawetz estimate.
