Abstract

We consider the following Cauchy problem for weakly coupled systems of semi-linear damped elastic waves with a power source non-linearity in three-dimensions: \begin{equation*} U_{tt}-a^2\Delta U-\big(b^2-a^2\big)\nabla\text{div } U+(-\Delta)^{\theta}U_t=F(U),\,\, (t,x)\in[0,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^3, \end{equation*} where U=U(t,x)=(U(1)(t,x),U(2)(t,x),U(3)(t,x))TU=U(t,x)=\big(U^{(1)}(t,x),U^{(2)}(t,x),U^{(3)}(t,x)\big)^{\mathrm{T}} with b2>a2>0b^2>a^2>0 and θ[0,1]\theta\in[0,1]. Our interests are some qualitative properties of solutions to the corresponding linear model with vanishing right-hand side and the influence of the value of θ\theta on the exponents p1,p2,p3p_1,p_2,p_3 in F(U)=(U(3)p1,U(1)p2,U(2)p3)TF(U)=\big(|U^{(3)}|^{p_1},|U^{(1)}|^{p_2},|U^{(2)}|^{p_3}\big)^{\mathrm{T}} to get results for the global (in time) existence of small data solutions.
