An elementary proof of the modified scattering of weak null quasilinear wave equations
Abstract
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of 3D quasilinear wave equations which satisfy the weak null condition. First, we use Fourier transform to express the solution in terms of the profile function, and then introduce a dyadic decomposition in phase space, and, hence, by applying the space-time resonance method, we give an elementary proof of the modified scattering result of Deng and Pusateri [3]. We also improve the estimate of the error term between the solution of wave equation and the solution of the related asymptotic equation.
