摘要

We consider the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear damped wave equation. Under suitable assumptions of the nonlinear term and the initial functions, the Cauchy problem has a global-in-time solution u behaving like the Gauss kernel as time tends to infinity. In this paper we show the asymptotic profiles to the solutions and give precise decay estimates on the difference between the solutions and their asymptotic profiles. Our results are based on the L-p-L-q-type decomposition of the fundamental solutions of the linearized damped wave equation and asymptotic expansion of the solution of a nonlinear heat equation.
