Abstract

In this paper, we study the asymptotic decay properties for defocusing semilinear wave equations in R1+2\mathbb{R}^{1+2} with pure power nonlinearity. By applying new vector fields to null hyperplane, we derive improved time decay of the potential energy, with a consequence that the solution scatters both in the critical Sobolev space and energy space for all p>1+8p>1+\sqrt{8}. Moreover combined with Br\'{e}zis-Gallouet-Wainger type of logarithmic Sobolev embedding, we show that the solution decays pointwise with sharp rate t12t^{-\frac{1}{2}} when p>113p>\frac{11}{3} and with rate tp18+ϵt^{ -\frac{p-1}{8}+\epsilon } for all 1<p1131<p\leq \frac{11}{3}. This in particular implies that the solution scatters in energy space when p>251p>2\sqrt{5}-1.
