Reducibility for wave equations of finitely smooth potential with periodic boundary conditions

Abstract

In the present paper, the reducibility is derived for the wave equations with finitely smooth and time-quasi-periodic potential subjects to periodic boundary conditions. More exactly, the linear wave equation $u_{tt}-u_{xx}+Mu+\epsilon (V_0(\omega t)u_{xx}+V(\omega t,x)u)=0,x\in \mathbb{R}/2\pi \mathbb{Z}$ can be reduced to a linear Hamiltonian system of a constant coefficient operator which is of pure imaginary point spectrum set, where $V$ is finitely smooth in $(t,x)$, quasi-periodic in time $t$ with Diophantine frequency $\omega \in {\mathbb{R}}^n,$ and $V_0$ is finitely smooth and quasi-periodic in time $t$ with Diophantine frequency $\omega \in {\mathbb{R}}^n,$ Moreover, it is proved that the corresponding wave operator possesses the property of pure point spectra and zero Lyapunov exponent.
