Well-posedness and global extensibility criteria for time-fractionally damped Jordan--Moore--Gibson--Thompson equation

Mostafa Meliani, Belkacem Said-Houari

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Jordan--Moore--Gibson--Thompson with a time-fractional damping term of the type $δ\textup{D}_t^{1-α} Δ\psit$ where we allow the challenging so-called critical case ($δ=0$). This equation arises in the context of acoustic propagation through thermally relaxed media. We tackle the question of long-time existence of the solution. More precisely, the goal of the paper is twofold: First, we establish local well-posedness of the initial boundary value problem, where we also provide a lower bound on the final time of existence as a function of initial data. Second, we prove a regularity result which guarantees, under the hypothesis of boundedness of certain quantities, that the local solution can be extended to be global-in-time.
