Asymptotic behavior for an almost periodic, strongly dissipative wave equation

This paper deals with asymptotic behavior for (weak) solutions of the equation u tt − Δu + β(u t) ∋ ƒ(t, x) , on R + × Ω; u( t, x) = 0, on R + × ∂Ω. If ƒ∈L∞(R +,L 2(Ω)) and β is coercive, we prove that the solutions are bounded in the energy space, under weaker assumptions than those used by G. Prou...

Summary:This paper deals with asymptotic behavior for (weak) solutions of the equation u tt − Δu + β(u t) ∋ ƒ(t, x) , on R + × Ω; u( t, x) = 0, on R + × ∂Ω. If ƒ∈L∞(R +,L 2(Ω)) and β is coercive, we prove that the solutions are bounded in the energy space, under weaker assumptions than those used by G. Prouse in a previous work. If in addition ƒ t∈S 2(R +,L 2(Ω)) and ƒ is srongly almost-periodic, we prove for strongly monotone β that all solutions are asymptotically almost-periodic in the energy space. The assumptions made on β are much less restrictive than those made by G. Prouse: mainly, we allow β to be multivalued, and in the one-dimensional case β need not be defined everywhere.
