In this paper, we study a semilinear weakly coupled system of wave equations with power nonlinearities. More precisely, we couple (through the nonlinear terms) a wave equation and a damped wave equation with a time-dependent coefficient for the damping term. For the coefficient of the damping term we consider two cases: the scale-invariant case and the scattering producing case. By applying an iteration argument, we get a blow-up result and upper bound estimates for the lifespan of the solutions. In the scale-invariant case, we obtain a shift of the space dimension in the blow-up region for the same weakly coupled system with a classical damping (i.e. with a constant coefficient), while for the scattering producing case we find the same blow-up region as for the classical Nakao problem.

Abstract
In this paper, we study a semilinear weakly coupled system of wave equations with power nonlinearities. More precisely, we couple (through the nonlinear terms) a wave equation and a damped wave equation with a time-dependent coefficient for the damping term. For the coefficient of the damping term we consider two cases: the scale-invariant case and the scattering producing case. By applying an iteration argument, we get a blow-up result and upper bound estimates for the lifespan of the solutions. In the scale-invariant case, we obtain a shift of the space dimension in the blow-up region for the same weakly coupled system with a classical damping (i.e. with a constant coefficient), while for the scattering producing case we find the same blow-up region as for the classical Nakao problem.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
