General decay and Well-posedness of the Cauchy problem For the Jordan-Moore-Gibson-Thompson equation with memory

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of a third order in time nonlinear equation known as the Jordan-Moore-Gibson-Thompson (JMGT) equation with the presence of both memory. Using the well known energy method combined with Lyapunov functionals approach, we prove a general decay result, and we show a local existence result in appropriate function spaces. Finally, we prove a global existence result for small data, and we prove the uniqueness of the generalized solution.
