TL;DR
This work addresses boundary stabilization for the linear KP-II equation on a rectangle $(0,L)\times(0,L)$ by designing a boundary feedback with $|\alpha|<1$ and $\beta>0$ that yields exponential decay of the energy $E(t)$ for all $L>0$. It provides a rigorous semigroup well-posedness framework, energy dissipation, and smoothing estimates, and then uses the Lions compactness-uniqueness method to derive an observability inequality, which implies global exponential stabilization. The main contribution is achieving exponential stabilization without critical-length restrictions, contrasting with prior works that exhibit length-dependent constraints. The results are built upon an anisotropic Sobolev framework and an anisotropic Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequality, and the nonlinear extension remains an open challenge with potential via damping/anti-damping or time-delay strategies.
Abstract
In this paper, we delve into the intricacies of boundary stabilization for the linearized KP-II equation within the constraints of a bounded domain, a phenomenon known as ``critical length." Our primary aim is to design a feedback law that ensures the existence and exponential stabilization of solutions in the energy space, without length restrictions on the domain $ Ω= (0, L) \times (0, L)$, $ L > 0 $. Furthermore, we examine the interaction between the drift term $ u_x $ under these constraints.
