The global existence for semilinear wave equations with space-dependent critical damping $\partial_t^2u-\Delta u+\frac{V_0}{|x|}\partial_t u=f(u)$ in an exterior domain is dealt with, where $f(u)=|u|^{p-1}u$ and $f(u)=|u|^p$ are in mind.…

In this paper, we discuss a new nonlinear phenomenon. We find that in $n\geq 2$ space dimensions, there exists two indexes $p$ and $q$ such that the cauchy problems for the nonlinear wave equations {equation} \label{0.1} \Box u(t,x) =…
