We impose no symmetry assumptions. The study of such equations is motivated by their covariance properties under the Couch-Torrence conformal isometry. We show decay, non-decay and asymptotic blow-up results analogous to those in the linear case.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-12-05T21:42:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "semilinear wave equations", "extremal reissner-nordström spacetimes", "asymptotic blow-up", "extremal reissner-nordstrom black hole backgrounds", "small data global existence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 56, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
