The Optimal Decay Estimates on the Framework of Besov Spaces for Generally Dissipative Systems

We give a new decay framework for the general dissipative hyperbolic system and the hyperbolic–parabolic composite system, which allows us to pay less attention to the traditional spectral analysis in comparison with previous efforts. New ingredients lie in the high-frequency and low-frequency decomposition of a pseudo-differential operator and an interpolation inequality related to homogeneous Besov spaces of negative order. Furthermore, we develop the Littlewood–Paley pointwise energy estimates and new time-weighted energy functionals to establish optimal decay estimates on the framework of spatially critical Besov spaces for the degenerately dissipative hyperbolic system of balance laws. Based on the L^p(ℝⁿ) embedding and the improved Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequality, the optimal L^p(ℝⁿ)-L²(ℝⁿ)(1 ≦ p < 2) decay rates and L^p(ℝⁿ)-L^q(ℝⁿ)(1 ≦ p < 2 ≦ q ≦ ∞) decay rates are further shown. Finally, as a direct application, the optimal decay rates for three dimensional damped compressible Euler equations are also obtained.
