Abstract:

In this article, we investigate the lower bound of life-span of classical solutions of the hyperbolic geometry flow equations in several space dimensions with "small" initial data. We first present some estimates on solutions of linear wave equations in several space variables. Then, we derive a lower bound of the life-span of the classical solutions to the equations with "small" initial data.

Key words: Hyperbolic geometry flow, classical solution, life-span
