Motivation - Damped vibration of string

Let Ω = (0, L), a > 0 then we have the damped wave equation with the

damping a in the form

utt + aut − uxx = 0, x ∈ (0, L), t > 0

u = u1, x ∈ (0, L), t = 0

ut = u2, x ∈ (0, L), t = 0

u = 0, x = 0, L, t > 0

Denote

)a U(t) :=

then formally

dtU(t) =

(ututt

−aut + uxx

(0 I∂2

∂x2−a

(0 I∂2

)U(t).

Choosing the Hilbert space

H :=(H10 (0, L)× L2(0, L), (·, ·)H

)with the inner product

(Ψ,Φ)H :=

(φ1φ2

dφ1dx

+ ψ2φ2

Denote

)a U(t) :=

then formally

dtU(t) =

(ututt

−aut + uxx

(0 I∂2

∂x2−a

(0 I∂2

)U(t).

Choosing the Hilbert space

H :=(H10 (0, L)× L2(0, L), (·, ·)H

)with the inner product

(Ψ,Φ)H :=

(φ1φ2

dφ1dx

+ ψ2φ2

(0 Id2

dx2−a

), Dom(A) :=

(H2(0, L) ∩ H1

0 (0, L))× H1

0 (0, L).

We thus obtain an evolution problem

dtU(t) = AU(t), U(0) = U0

for A being densely dened, closed, unbounded, non-self-adjoint and

generating a C0-semigroup eAt .

There exists ω ∈ R, ‖eAt‖ ≤ eωt .

We dene ω0 as the smallest such ω. For the string it holds

ω0 = ωσ(A) := supRλ : λ ∈ σ(A),

Damped wave operator on Ω ⊂ Rd with bounded damping

Let Ω ⊂ Rd and a ∈ L∞(Ω). We choose

H :=(H10 (Ω)× L2(Ω), (·, ·)H

)where

(Ψ,Φ)H :=

(φ1φ2

∫Ω∇ψ1∇φ1 + ψ1φ1 + ψ2φ2

A is again densely dened, closed, unbounded, non-self-adjoint and

generates a C0-semigroup eAt

If the damping a changes sign, then there lies a positive point in the

spectrum and thus there exists an unstable solution:

damping

Using the correspondence between the family of Schrödinger

operators and the damped wave operator we found various spectral

bounds for the damped wave operator which provided us with

information about the behavior of the system
