We consider the damped wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the unit square. We assume the damping to be a characteristic function of a strip. We prove the exact $t^{-4/3}$-decay rate for the energy of classical solutions.…
We prove a Weyl-type fractal upper bound for the spectrum of the damped wave equation, on a negatively curved compact manifold. It is known that most of the eigenvalues have an imaginary part close to the average of the damping function. We…

We consider an abstract linear wave equation with a time-dependent dissipation that decays at infinity with the so-called scale invariant rate, which represents the critical case. We do not assume that the coefficient of the dissipation…
We study decay rates for the energy of solutions of the damped wave equation on the torus. We consider dampings invariant in one direction and bounded above and below by multiples of $x^{\beta}$ near the boundary of the support and show…
We investigate the stability properties of strongly continuous semigroups generated by operators of the form $A-BB^\ast$, where $A$ is a generator of a contraction semigroup and $B$ is a possibly unbounded operator. Such systems arise…
We study the generator $G$ of the one-dimensional damped wave equation with unbounded damping. We show that the norm of the corresponding resolvent operator, $\| (G - \lambda)^{-1} \|$, is approximately constant as $|\lambda| \to +\infty$…
We study the Cauchy problem of the semilinear damped wave equation with polynomial nonlinearity, and establish the local and global existence of the solution for slowly decaying initial data not belonging to $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ in general.…
In this paper, we give positive answer to the open question raised in [E. Zuazua, Exponential decay for the semilinear wave equation with localized damping in unbounded domains. J. Math. Pures Appl., 70 (1991) 513--529] on the exponential…
In this paper, we investigate the energy decay of hyperbolic systems of wave-wave, wave-Euler- Bernoulli beam and beam-beam types. The two equations are coupled through boundary connection with only one localized non-smooth fractional…
The aim of this note is to extend the energy decay estimates from [J. Wirth, J. Differential Equations 222 (2006) 487--514] to a broader class of time-dependent dissipation including very fast oscillations. This is achieved using…

We propose a model for frequency-dependent damping in the linear wave equation. After proving well-posedness of the problem, we study qualitative properties of the energy. In the one-dimensional case, we provide an explicit analysis for…
We provide a uniform decay estimate of Morawetz type for the local energy of general solutions to the inhomogeneous wave equation on a Schwarzchild background. This estimate is both uniform in space and time, so in particular it implies a…
