Critical exponent for a weakly coupled system of semi-linear $σ$-evolution equations with frictional damping (1911.01946v1)

Abstract: We are interested in studying the Cauchy problem for a weakly coupled system of semi-linear $\sigma$-evolution equations with frictional damping. The main purpose of this paper is two-fold. We would like to not only prove the global (in time) existence of small data energy solutions but also indicate the blow-up result for Sobolev solutions when $\sigma$ is assumed to be any fractional number.
