On the interaction of metric trapping and a boundary

Analysis of PDEs 2021-08-13 v2

Abstract

By considering a two ended warped product manifold, we demonstrate a bifurcation that can occur when metric trapping interacts with a boundary. In this highly symmetric example, as the boundary passes through the trapped set, one goes from a nontrapping scenario where lossless local energy estimates are available for the wave equation to the case of stably trapped rays where all but a logarithmic amount of decay is lost.
