We derive some 1-D symmetry and uniqueness or non-existence results for nonnegative solutions of some elliptic system in the halfspace $\R^N_+$ in low dimension. Our method is based upon a combination of Fourier series and Liouville…
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…
Here we consider an integral equation describing a fixed number of scalar particles which interact not through boson exchange but directly along light cones, similarly as in bound state equations such as the Bethe-Salpeter equation. The…
In this manuscript we first give the explicit variational structure of the nonlinear elastic waves for isotropic, homogeneous, hyperelastic materials in 2-D. Based on this variational structure, we suggest a null condition which is a kind…
Global smooth solutions to the initial value problem for systems of nonlinear wave equations with multiple propagation speeds will be constructed in the case of small initial data and nonlinearities satisfying the null condition.
We establish unique continuation for various discrete nonlinear wave equations. For example, we show that if two solutions of the Toda lattice coincide for one lattice point in some arbitrarily small time interval, then they coincide…

In this paper, we consider the semilinear damped wave equation with nonlinearities of derivative type $|u_t|^p$. We observe that this problem admits a unique global (in time) solution with small initial data for all $p > 1$ in low spatial…
We study the defocusing semilinear wave equation in ${\mathbb{R}}\times{\mathbb{R}}^2\backslash{\mathcal K}$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition, where ${\mathcal K}$ is a star-shaped obstacle with smooth boundary. We first show that the…
In the present work, we will develop a conformal inequality in the hyperbolic foliation context which is analogous to the conformal inequality in the classical time-constant foliation context. Then as an application, we will apply this a…
