Critical exponent of Fujita-type for the semilinear damped wave equation on the Heisenberg group with power nonlinearity (1908.02989v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the semilinear damped wave equation on the Heisenberg group with power nonlinearity. We prove that the critical exponent is the Fujita exponent $p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q}) = 1+2 / \mathscr{Q}$, where $\mathscr{Q}$ is the homogeneous dimension of the Heisenberg group. On the one hand, we will prove the global existence of small data solutions for $p >p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q})$ in an exponential weighted energy space. On the other hand, a blow-up result for $1 < p \leq p_{\mathrm{Fuj}}(\mathscr{Q})$ under certain integral sign assumptions for the Cauchy data by using the test function method.
