Abstract
Synopsis: Let Ω⊂ℝnbe a bounded open domain and T = ∂Ω. It β is a maximal monotone graph in ℝ×ℝ with 0ϵβ(0), and f: ℝ×Ω→ℝ is measurable with t→ f(t,.) S2-almost periodic as a function ℝ→L2(Ω), we consider the nonlinear hyperbolic equation We show that: (i) if ゲ is strictly increasing and (1) has a solution ω on ℝ with [ω, Əω/Ət] almost periodic: , for any solution of (1) there exists with u(t,.)–ω(t,.)—ξin (ii) if β is single valued and everywhere defined, the existence of ω as above implies that, for every solution of (1), there exists Ϛ(t, x) with ә2Ϛ/әt2–0△Ϛ = in ℝ×Ω and u(t,.)–ω(t,.)—0 in as t → +∞ (iii) if β–1 is uniformly continuous and ゲ satisfies some growth assumption (depending on N), for every f as above, there exists ω solution of (1) on ℝ with [ω, Əω/Ət] almost periodic: ℝ → .
