Abstract

In this paper, the  rate of decay for the radius of spatial analyticity for solutions of the nonlinear wave equation  
    \[\partial_t^2 u -\Delta u + |u|^{p-1}u=0, \] on $\mathbb{R}^d\times\mathbb{R}$ is studied.  In particular, for  class of analytic initial data with a uniform radius of analyticity $\sigma_0$, we obtain an asymptotic lower bound $\sigma(t)\ge a_0|t|^{-\frac23}$ when $d=1$ and $\sigma(t)\ge a_0|t|^{-\frac32}$ when $d=2$  on the uniform radius of analyticity $\sigma(t)$  of solution $u(\cdot,t)$ as $|t|\rightarrow +\infty$ . This is an improvement of the work [D.~O.~da~Silva,  A.~J.~Castro, Global well-posedness for the nonlinear wave equation in analytic Gevrey spaces, J. Differential Equations  275(2021)~234--249], where the authors obtained a decay rate of order $\sigma(t)\geq a_0(1+|t|)^{-(\frac{p+1}{2})}$ when $d=1$ and $\sigma(t)\geq a_0(1+|t|)^{-(\frac{p+1-\epsilon}{1-\epsilon})}$ when $d=2$ as $|t|\rightarrow +\infty$ for large time $t$, where $\epsilon>0$ is arbitrary.  We used an approximate conservation law in a modified Gevrey space, contraction mapping     principle, interpolation and Sobolev embedding to obtain the results.
