Combining the singularity theory with results in uniform estimates of oscillatory integrals, we prove that the optimal time decay rate of the fundamental solution is of order $|t|^{-\\frac{3}{2}}\\log |t|$, which is the first extension of P. Schultz's results \\cite{S98} in $d=2,3$ to the higher dimension. We also observe that the decay rate for $d=2,3,4$ can be well interpreted by the Newton polyhedra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-07T08:37:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "oscillatory integrals", "optimal time decay rate", "linear wave equation", "singularity theory", "newton polyhedra" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
