In this work we consider a coupled system of two weakly dissipative wave equations. We show that the solution of this system decays polynomially and the decay rate is optimal. Computational experiments are conducted in the one-dimensional case in order to show that the energies properties are preserved. In particular, we use finite differences and also spectral methods.

The main goal of the present paper is to study the existence, uniqueness and behavior of a solution for a coupled system of nonlinear viscoelastic wave equations with the presence of weak and strong damping terms. Owing to the Faedo-Galerkin method combined with the contraction mapping theorem, we established a local existence in [ 0 , T ] . The local solution was made global in time by using appropriate a priori energy estimates. The key to obtaining a novel decay rate is the convexity of the function χ , under the special condition of the initial energy E ( 0 ) . The condition of the weights of weak and strong damping has a fundamental role in the proof. The existence of both three different damping mechanisms and strong nonlinear sources make the paper very interesting from a mathematics point of view, especially when it comes to unbounded spaces such as R n .

In heterogeneous media, standard one-way wave equations describe only the kinematic part of one-way wave propagation correctly. For a correct description of amplitudes, the one-way wave equations must be modified. In media with vertical velocity variations only, the resulting true-amplitude one-way wave equations can be solved analytically. In media with lateral velocity variations, these equations are much harder to solve and require sophisticated numerical techniques. We present an approach to circumvent these problems by implementing approximate solutions based on the one-dimensional analytic amplitude modifications. We use these approximations to show how to modify conventional migration methods such as split-step and Fourier finite-difference migrations in such a way that they more accurately handle migration amplitudes. Simple synthetic data examples in media with a constant vertical gradient demonstrate that the correction achieves the recovery of true migration amplitudes. Applications to the SEG/EAGE salt model and the Marmousi data show that the technique improves amplitude recovery in the migrated images in more realistic situations.

We present a general form of renormalization operator [Formula: see text] acting on potentials [Formula: see text]. We exhibit the analytical expression of the fixed point potential [Formula: see text] for such operator [Formula: see text]. This potential can be expressed in a natural way in terms of a certain integral over the Hausdorff probability on a Cantor type set on the interval [0,1]. This result generalizes a previous one by Baraviera, Leplaideur and Lopes where the fixed point potential [Formula: see text] was of Hofbauer type. For the potentials of Hofbauer type (a well-known case of phase transition) the decay is like [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Among other things we present the estimation of the decay of correlation of the equilibrium probability associated to the fixed potential [Formula: see text] of our general renormalization procedure. In some cases we get polynomial decay like [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and in others a decay faster than [Formula: see text], when [Formula: see text]. The potentials [Formula: see text] we consider here are elements of the so-called family of Walters’ potentials on [Formula: see text] which generalizes a family of potentials considered initially by Hofbauer. For these potentials some explicit expressions for the eigenfunctions are known. In a final section we also show that given any choice [Formula: see text] of real numbers varying with [Formula: see text] there exists a potential [Formula: see text] on the class defined by Walters which has a invariant probability with such numbers as the coefficients of correlation (for a certain explicit observable function).
