Uniqueness class of solutions to a class of linear evolution equations

Abstract

In this paper, we study the wave equation on infinite graphs. On one hand, in contrast to the wave equation on manifolds, we construct an example for the non-uniqueness for the Cauchy problem of the wave equation on graphs. On the other hand, we obtain a sharp uniqueness class for the solutions of the wave equation. The result follows from the time analyticity of the solutions to the wave equation in the uniqueness class. In the last part, we extend the result to a wide class of linear evolution equations.
