Global existence for quasilinear wave equations close to Schwarzschild

Abstract:

We study the quasilinear wave equation $\Box_g u=0$, where the metric $g$ depends on $u$ and equals the Schwarzschild metric when $u$ is identically 0. Under a couple of assumptions on the metric $g$ near the trapped set and the light cone, we prove global existence of solutions. This is joint work with Hans Lindblad.
