| contents | We study a system of semilinear wave equations satisfying the weak null condition, which can be regarded as a simplified model for the Einstein vacuum equations. The main objective is to establish precise pointwise decay estimates, as both lower and upper bounds of decay, for small data solutions. Specifically, we show that the difference between the solution and its leading-order term is dominated by lower-order terms that decay faster in the retarded time variable $u=t-r$. Moreover, we prove that these pointwise decay estimates are sharp for a generic class of small initial data decaying sufficiently fast.
As applications of these estimates, we demonstrate that the energy of one component of the solution admits a lower bound that generically grows to infinity as $t\to +\infty$, which can be interpreted as ``blowing up at infinity." Furthermore, we verify that this component generically exhibits an energy cascade from high to low frequencies. |
