Well-posedness and stability for semilinear wave-type equations with time delay (2108.12786v1)

Abstract: In this paper we analyze a semilinear abstract damped wave-type equation with time delay. We assume that the delay feedback coefficient is variable in time and belonging to $L^1_{loc}([0, +\infty)).$ Under suitable assumptions, we show well-posedness and exponential stability for small initial data. Our strategy combines careful energy estimates and continuity arguments. Some examples illustrate the abstract results.
