Asymptotics of the critical non-linear wave equation for a class of non star-shaped obstacles

Abstract

Scattering for the energy critical non-linear wave equation for domains exterior to non trapping obstacles in 3+1 dimension is known for the star-shaped case. In this paper, we extend the scattering for a class of non star-shaped obstacles called illuminated from exterior. The main tool we use is the method of multipliers with weights that generalize the Morawetz multiplier to suit the geometry of the obstacle.
