Abstract: In this paper we consider the initial value problem for a plate type equation with variable coefficients and memory in
 1n
R n  ), which is of regularity-loss property. By using spectrally resolution, we study the pointwise estimates in the spectral
space of the fundamental solution to the corresponding linear problem. Appealing to this pointwise estimates, we obtain the global
existence and the decay estimates of solutions to the semilinear problem by employing the fixed point theorem.
Keywords: plate equation, memory, decay, regularity-loss property.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the global
existence and decay estimates of solutions to the initial value
problem (1.1). For our problem, it is difficult to obtain
explicitly the solution operators or their Fourier transform due
to the presence of the memory term and variable coefficients.
However, we can obtain the pointwise estimate in the spectral
space of the fundamental solution operators to the
corresponding linear equation

from which the global existence and the decay estimates of

The second one is about the decay estimates for the

Theorem 1.2 (decay estimates for linear problem). Under the

For the study of plate type equations, there are many
results in the literatures. In [4], da Luz–Charão studied a
semilinear damped plate equation :
   2
. 1.6tt tt tu u u u f u     
They proved the global existence of solutions and a
polynomial decay of the energy by exploiting an energy
method. However the result was restricted to
dimension 1 5n  , This restriction on the space
dimension was removed by Sugitani–Kawashima (see [23])
by the fundamental method of energy estimates in the Fourier
(or frequency) space and some sharp decay estimates. Since
the method of energy estimates in Fourier space is relatively
simple and effective, it has been adapted to study some related
problems (see [18, 19, 20, 24]).
For the case of dissipative plate equations of memory
type, Liu–Kawashima (see [15, 12]) studied the following
equation
 2
,ttu u u k u f u     

www.ijcat.com 261
as well as the equation with rotational term
 2
, ,tt tt tu u u u k u f u u u         ,
and obtained the global existence and decay estimates of
solutions by the energy method in the Fourier space. The
results in these papers and the general dissipative plate
equation (see [13, 14, 16, 23]) show that they are of
regularity-loss property.
A similar decay structure of the regularity-loss type was also
observed for the dissipative Timoshenko system (see [10])
and a hyperbolic-elliptic system related to a radiating gas (see
[9]). For more studies on various aspects of dissipation of
plate equations, we refer to [1, 2, 3, 7]. And for the study of
decay properties for hyperbolic systems of memory-type
dissipation, we refer to [6, 11, 22].
The results in [12] are further studied and generalized to
higher order equations in [16] and to the equations with
variable coefficients in [17]. The main purpose of this paper is
to study the decay estimates and regularity-loss property for
solutions to the initial value problem (1.1) in the spirit of [12,
15, 16, 17]. And we generalize these results to the case of
variable coefficients and semilinear equations.
The paper is arranged as follows: We study the pointwise
estimates of solutions to the problem (2.2) and (2.3) in the
spectral space in Section 2. And in Section 3, we prove the
energy estimates and the decay estimates for solutions to the
linear equation (1.3) by virtue of the estimates in Section 2. In
Section 4, we prove the global existence and decay estimates
for the semilinear problems (1.1).
For the reader’s convenience, we give some notations
which will be used below. Let  F f denote the Fourier
transform of f defined by

Thus estimates for  u t can be reduced to estimates for

By virtue of (4.9) and (4.10), we obtain the desired results.
Combining the estimates (4.2) and (4.8), we obtain that

On the other hand,     00 t t   , and from Theorem

Thus   Rv B  ,  v v  is a contraction

there exists a unique Ru B satisfying  u u  ,
and it is the solution to the semilinear problem (1.1)
satisfying the decay estimates (1.4) and (1.5). So
far we complete the proof of Theorem 1.3.
