We carry out a classification of Lie symmetries for the (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear damped wave equationutt+fuut=div(gugrad u)with variable damping. Similarity reductions of the equation are performed using the admitted Lie symmetries of the equation and some interesting solutions are presented. Employing the multiplier approach, admitted conservation laws of the equation are constructed for some new, interesting cases.

The Noether symmetry algebras admitted by wave equations on plane-fronted gravitational waves with parallel rays are determined. We apply the classification of different metric functions to determine generators for the wave equation, and also adopt Noether's theorem to derive conserved forms. For the possible cases considered, there exist symmetry groups with dimensions two, three, five, six and eight. These symmetry groups contain the homothetic symmetries of the spacetime.

In this work we perform the symmetry classification of the Klein–Gordon equation in Bianchi I spacetime. We apply a geometric method which relates the Lie symmetries of the Klein–Gordon equation with the conformal algebra of the underlying geometry. Furthermore, we prove that the Lie symmetries which follow from the conformal algebra are also Noether symmetries for the Klein–Gordon equation. We use these results in order to determine all the potentials in which the Klein–Gordon admits Lie and Noether symmetries. Due to the large number of cases and for easy reference the results are presented in the form of tables. For some of the potentials we use the Lie admitted symmetries to determine the corresponding invariant solution of the Klein–Gordon equation. Finally, we show that the results also solve the problem of classification of Lie/Noether point symmetries of the wave equation in Bianchi I spacetime and can be used for the determination of invariant solutions of the wave equation.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper we give the notion of equivalent damped wave equations. As an application we study global in time existence for the solution of special scale invariant damped wave equation with small data. To gain such results, without radial assumption, we deal with Klainerman vector fields. In particular we can treat some potential behind the forcing term.</p>

We study the strong stabilization of wave equations on some sphere-like manifolds, with rough damping terms which do not satisfy the geometric control condition posed by Rauch−Taylor [J. Rauch and M. Taylor, Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 28 (1975) 501–523] and Bardos−Lebeau−Rauch [C. Bardos, G. Lebeau and J. Rauch, SIAM J. Control Optimiz. 30 (1992) 1024–1065]. We begin with an unpublished result of G. Lebeau, which states that on 𝕊d, the indicator function of the upper hemisphere strongly stabilizes the damped wave equation, even though the equators, which are geodesics contained in the boundary of the upper hemisphere, do not enter the damping region. Then we extend this result on dimension 2, to Zoll surfaces of revolution, whose geometry is similar to that of 𝕊2. In particular, geometric objects such as the equator, and the hemi-surfaces are well defined. Our result states that the indicator function of the upper hemi-surface strongly stabilizes the damped wave equation, even though the equator, as a geodesic, does not enter the upper hemi-surface either.
