Abstract
In this paper we consider a fractional nonlinearity for the wave equation with friction and viscoelastic damping. Using Fixed point theorem a global in time existence of small data solutions to the Cauchy problem is investigated in this research. Our main interest is to show the influence of the fractional nonlinearity parameter to the admissible range of exponent comparing with power nonlinearity and also the generating of loss of decay.

1. Introduction and Tools
The left and right Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives of order for a function u are defined as:
Definition 1.
Let , , then, the definition of the left and right Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives are:
and
where n is an integer which satisfies and is the Euler’s gamma function.
The left and right Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals of order for a function u are defined as:
Definition 2.
Let , , then, the definition of the left and right Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals are:
and
where is the Euler’s gamma function.
An important concept, not long ago, that has emerged is the Caputo-Fabrizio integral operator, which has been established in the last few years. This is how it is defined:
Definition 3
([1]). Let , , then, the definition of the new Caputo fractional derivative is:
where is normalization function.
The integral formula for the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative is as follows.
Definition 4
([2]). Let , , then, the definition of the left and right side of Caputo-Fabrizio fractional integrals are:
and
where is normalization function.
Atangana-Baleanu [3] has found a solution to the problem of the Caputo-Fabrizio operator not being reduced to the original function in a special case, despite the fact that the operator is an effective tool in the solution of many systems of differential equations. The features of the Caputo-Fabrizio operator are present in the normalization function.
Some fractional order derivative and integral operators include the power law in their kernel. Nature does not usually exhibit power law behavior. This novel derivative and integral operator incorporates the Mittag-Leffler function [3]. The Mittag-Leffler function is required to model nature. This improved the Atangana-Baleanu operator and piqued researchers’ interest. That the work uses the Atangana-Baleanu operator for Hermite-Hadamard inequalities is unusual. When the parameter is set to zero, the Atangana-Baleanu original function can be derived and compared to the Caputo-Fabrizio results.
Definition 5
([3]). Let , , then, the definition of the new fractional derivative is given below
Definition 6
([3]). Let , , then, the definition of the new fractional derivative is given below:
Equations (8) and (9) have a non-local kernel. Also in (9) when the function is constant we get zero. Associated integral operator for Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative has been defined as follows.
Definition 7
([3]). The fractional integral associate to the new fractional derivative with non-local kernel of a function as defined:
where , .
The authors of [4] described the integral operator’s right hand side as follows:
where , . Differential equations of arbitrary real order are used to model various physical models arising in many branches of science and engineering. Applications of such mathematical models can be seen from statistical mechanics and Brownian motion, via visco-elasticity problems, to continuum and quantum mechanics, biosciences, chemical engineering, and control theory, see for instance [5]. Nonlinearity is very important in studying wave equations, evolution equations, damped equations etc. and in some problems fractional nonlinearity is considered as the Riemann-Liouville fractional operator to get a nonlinear memory term also know as nonlinearity. In this paper, we study the global (in time) existence of small data solutions to
where
denote the fractional Riemann-Liouville integral operator of order for some We also derive decay estimates for solutions to (12) and show the influence of fractional integral parameter This problem important to the researchers working in field of differential equations and mathematical modeling. Over the last decade several papers have been devoted to the study of semilinear evolution model with the nonlinear term of memory type as in (13). In the pioneering paper [6] the authors determine the critical exponent for the semilinear heat equation with nonlinear memory term. Afterwards, this kind of result has been generalized for fractional (either in space or in time) heat equations [7,8,9] and for weakly coupled system of heat equations [8,10,11]. Mezadek et al. [12] considered the Cauchy problem for the semilinear wave equation with friction damping, visco-elastic damping and power nonlinearity
where the data and are known as Cauchy data. Mezadek et al. [12] defined a generalized diffusion phenomena and demonstrated that the long time asymptotic of solutions is a mixture of diffusion and wave equation solutions. A more general case also treated recently in [13].
For the semilinear classical damped wave equation with friction damping and no viscoelastic damping, many mathematicians have attempted to solve the following Cauchy problem:
Energy solutions for compactly supported data and (and if ) were found to exist locally (in time) by Nakao and Ono [14]. Todorova and Yordanov [15] established the global (in time) existence for , where the data and that in terms of nonlinearities, the Fujita exponent is the vital exponent. as can be seen from the results of Ikeda et al. [16] and Ikeda et al. [16]. In this case a blow-up result is proved for , even for small data from , (resp. , where satisfies and . Ikehata and Ohta [17] studied (14) under the assumption for additional regularity , for the data. Ikehata and Ohta obtained a new critical exponent for small data Sobolev solutions from both the global (in time) and blow-up perspectives.
Semilinear viscoelastic damped wave equations with viscoelastic damping and without friction have a large body of literature
Ikehata et al. [18] addressed the related linear Cauchy problem with vanishing right-hand side and demonstrated global well posedness. Shibata [19] provided estimations for Sobolev solutions and examined the diffusion phenomenon. Ikehata [20] investigated the asymptotic characteristic of Sobolev solutions as , assuming that , where represents a weighted space. D’Abbicco and Reissig [21] devoted their findings to determining the crucial exponent . The critical exponent denotes the existence of global (in time) Sobolev solutions for little data for and simply the existence of local (in time) Sobolev solutions for large data for . Thus, a blow-up behavior can be expected in general. Since D’Abbicco and Reissig were unable to verify such a critical exponent so the critical exponent remains an open problem. It should be noted that the results of Theorem 2 in D’Abbicco and Reissig [21] are based on the usage of higher order regularity for the data, specifically, second order in space, and on the blending of multiple regularities for the data. The data, in particular, belong to the classical energy space.
Thus, it is feasible to investigate (13) using both friction and viscoelastic damping terms. The subject of the qualitative features of solutions to (13) emerges. It is an interesting point to understand the relationship between friction and viscoelastic damping. As a result, Ikehata and Sawada [22] demonstrated that the frictional damping effect is more prominent than the viscoelastic damping effect for the asymptotic profile as . D’Abbicco [23] recently addressed the Cauchy problem (13), in which the data are assumed to belong to the energy space with an additional regularity, namely to . The author established that small data energy solutions exist globally (in time) for admissible exponents for . Ikehata and Takeda [24] investigated the identical Cauchy problem (13) with the following data assumptions , where . The authors established a result regarding the global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev solutions exclusively for . They obtained this result for the range of permissible exponents meeting the condition . Mezadek et al. [12] examined the Cauchy problem (13) under particular data and dimension r assumptions and investigated the effect of the regularity parameters , and the additional regularity parameter on the data on the acceptable ranges of exponents , which enables the global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev or energy solutions with a sufficient degree of regularity. Additionally, the authors investigated the effect of and k on solution regularity. Mezadek et al. [12] demonstrated the global (in time) existence of small data solutions to the semilinear Cauchy problem (13) in any space dimension by applying estimates of linear Cauchy problem solutions to the semilinear Cauchy problem with power nonlinearity .
Small data solutions to the Cauchy problem for a semilinear wave equation with friction, viscoelastic damping and a fractional nonlinearity are the main goal of this paper. We want to find out if these solutions are globally available in time for small data. The main objectives of this paper is to show that fractional nonlinearity has an effect on the range of exponent that can be used and it also causes the decay rate to slow down with respect to the solution to the corresponding linear problem.
2. Main Results
2.1. Strategies
For the Cauchy problem (12), we will prove several results here. Our primary goal is to demonstrate the worldwide viability of small data solutions in the near future. As a result, we can assume that the zero solution is stable right away.
We introduce for and the function space
with the norm
In the first instance, we suppose that the low regular data come from We will demonstrate that Sobolev solutions exist globally in time.
where for large dimensions, an upper bound on the power nonlinearity exponent is necessary because it is larger than the modified Fujita exponent.
Case two outcomes are related to the highly regular data, which implies they belong to and have a . We use tools from harmonic analysis from [25] to prove the existence of a global (in time) solution (see Appendix A). All these results require the condition if Here, we denote by the ceiling function in .
Finally, if , then using fractional powers the last condition will be weakened to .
2.2. Low Regular Data
2.2.1. Low Dimension
Theorem 1.
Let and be a real number and the data are in Suppose that the exponent ς satisfies
and
thus, there exists a small ϵ such that if
then there exists a uniquely determined globally (in time) energy solution to (12) in
According to estimates, the solution satisfies
Example 1.
| r | Regularity σ1 | Admissible range for ς |
| r = 1 | ||
| r = 2 | ||
Example 2.
In this example we treat the case of third dimension for fixed . The model that we have is given by
Then, the admissible range for ς can be described as follows:
2.2.2. Higher Dimension
Theorem 2.
Let and be a real number and the data are in , where Suppose that the exponent ς satisfies
and
thus, there exists a small ϵ such that if
then there exists a uniquely determined globally (in time) energy solution to (12) in
According to estimates, the solution satisfies
where and define the loss of decay in comparison with the corresponding decay estimates for the solution ζ to the linear Cauchy problem with vanishing right-hand side.
In the following theorems we will take the additional regularity since the goal is the global existence where there is no blow-up results exist in the literature and also use the last case of estimates (22) in Proposition 1.
2.3. Data from Sobolev Spaces with Suitable Regularity

Furthermore, the solution satisfies:
2.4. Large Regular Data

Then for small ϵ, we have
and there exists a uniquely determined globally (in time) energy solution to (12) in
Moreover, the solution meets the estimates:
Remark 1.
If we take in Theorems 3 and 4 the data belongs to , then we have to take and the decay of the solution and their derivative will be define by as power similarly to Theorem 2.
3. Philosophy of Our Approach and Proofs
In order to proceed to our proofs, we first introduce some tools and previous results.
Proposition 1.
Let and Then,
Proposition 2.
Let and Then,
Reference [26] contains the evidence supporting Propositions 1 and 2.
Proposition 3.
Let with Then the solution to the Cauchy problem
satisfies the decay estimates
Proof of Proposition 3 can be found in [12].
We define the space of solutions by
where the norm of will be proposed separately for each theorem. We introduce the operator by
We denote by and the fundamental solutions to the linear equation, namely
is a solution to the Cauchy problem
and
is a solution to the Cauchy problem
As a result of Proposition A4, we may prove the following inequalities:
where for and for all
3.1. Proof of Theorem 1
Let
where We remark that if , then for any
We begin the proof of (29). From the estimates (24) to (27) of Theorem 3 and the definition of the norm of solutions space we have
Consequently,
Simply proving (29), it suffices to prove:
For the term we have
Thus, we have
Proposition A1 and Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality can be used to estimate both of the right-hand side terms. For the first term, we are able to get
where
which is due to the condition (17) for .
By using the norm of solutions space for we get
Then
Estimating follows the same principles. This is done by employing the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and the defining of the norm of the solution space .
where
this is from condition (17) for . Hence, we may conclude for the following estimate:
All together leads to
Moreover, we have to assume the condition which generate a Fujita-like upper bound (16). So, it follows the desired estimate
In the same way one can get
and
Taking into consideration (31) and (35) to (37) the estimate (29) is proved.
Hölder’s inequality implies
and
By using the norm of solution space and after applying the classical Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality as we did for (33) and (34) we obtain the following estimates for :
Then we get
and
Applying the same ideas as we did to estimate , this means, after plugging (41) and (42) into (38) one can get after using (16) the following estimates:
and
Then from the definition of the proof of (30) is completed.
3.2. Proof of Theorem 2
- For we haveSimilarly to (33) and under the same conditions described in the theorem we getUsing the last estimate we obtainHence
- For we haveUsing (46) we getHence
To control all norms appearing in we follow exactly the same steps used in the proof of previous theorem.
3.3. Proof of Theorem 3
We define the space of solutions by
Our goal is to prove (29) and (30). Let
From the defined norm and the estimates (24) to (27) we get
Then, its remains to prove (32) to get (29).
For we have
Similarly to (33) and (34) we obtain
and
provided that
Still it remains to estimate the norm
The fractional chain rule, which the reader can find in citation [25] or Appendix A, is therefore used as a harmonic analysis tool in this paper. We can estimate and by considering the Propositions A1 and A3, in particular Formula (A2).
Then
where
Last conditions implies
Then we get the following bounds:
Using (51)–(53) with the last estimates of (22) in (50), we get
where from the restriction of dimension described in the theorem and using the conditions which generate a Fujita-like upper bound (16).
Finally, we get
Similarly, we can get
Last estimates complete the proof of (32). Now we prove the second inequality (30). Let and belong to . Then
Similar to (41) and (42), we get
In the next step we may control Indeed, using the fractional Leibniz rule from Proposition A2 we get
where
For the first integral we use the classical Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality and obtain for
and
for
The last conditions implies that
Thus we get the following bounds:
To estimate the first term in the second integral we use again the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality.
In this way we, obtain
where
To estimate the second term we use the fractional chain rule from Proposition A3.
Hence, we get
where
Using Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality to estimate the last two norms, we get
and
for
The last conditions imply that
One possibility to choose the parameters , , and satisfying the last conditions is
These choices imply the condition
Consequently, we obtain for the estimate
All together similar to the control of in Theorem 1 leads to
The proof is completed.
3.4. Proof of Theorem 4
As we did in the proof to Theorem 3 we need just to modify the estimate of the norm by using the Lemma A1 introduced by D’Abbicco in [27]. Then we get for the following estimate:
Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality and the definition of the solution space lead us to conclusion
If we choose then we get
Thus, we obtain
Using the most recent estimate, the same steps as in the proof of Theorem 3 can be used to conclude the proof.
4. Concluding Remarks
There are a number of Semiliear Cauchy problems in the literature which have the same decay estimates for the homogeneous problem as that of the Cauchy problem (12) with friction, viscoelastic damping. The results that we have acquired also hold for the semilinear Cauchy problems that already exist in mathematical literature. In this study, we have discussed the global existence in time of small data solutions to the Cauchy problem (12) with friction, viscoelastic damping and a fractional nonlinearity, where the data are supposed to belong to different classes of regularity and denote the Caputo fractional integral of order defined by for some . We have also shown the influence of the fractional nonlinearity to the admissible range of exponent comparing with power nonlinearity and also the generating of loss of decay. Indeed the Cauchy problem studied in this paper is more general than the Cauchy problems (13)–(15) since it contains the global existence in time of small data solutions when the data are supposed to belong to different classes of regularity.
