Some remarks on the asymptotic profile of solutions to structurally damped $\sigma$-evolution equations

Abstract

In this paper, we are interested in analyzing the asymptotic profiles of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear structurally damped $\sigma$-evolution equations in $L^2$-sense. Depending on the parameters $\sigma$ and $\delta$ we would like to not only indicate approximation formula of solutions but also recognize the optimality of their decay rates as well in the distinct cases of parabolic like damping and $\sigma$-evolution like damping. Moreover, such results are also discussed when we mix these two kinds of damping terms in a $\sigma$-evolution equation to investigate how each of them affects the asymptotic profile of solutions.
