Abstract

We establish the existence of weak solutions uu of the semilinear wave equation t2udivx(a(t,x)xu)=fk(u)\partial_t^2 u-\textrm{div}_x(a(t,x)\nabla_xu)=f_k(u) where a(t,x)a(t,x) is equal to 11 outside a compact set with respect to xx and a non-linear term fkf_k which satisfies fk(u)Cuk\vert f_k(u)\vert\leq C\vert u\vert^k. For some non-trapping time-periodic perturbations a(t,x)a(t,x), we obtain the long time existence of solution for small initial data.
