We consider the quadratically semilinear wave equation on R^d, d>=3, equipped with a Riemannian metric. This metric is non-trapping and approaches the Euclidean metric polynomially at infinity. Using Mourre estimates and the Kato theory of…

We prove that Riemannian metrics with a uniform weak norm can be smoothed to having arbitrarily high regularity. This generalizes all previous smoothing results. As a consequence we obtain a generalization of Gromov's almost flat manifold…

In this paper, we study the $L^p$-asymptotic stability of the one-dimensional linear damped wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in $[0,1]$, with $p\in (1,\infty)$. The damping term is assumed to be linear and localized to an…
