The Robin Problems in the Coupled System of Wave Equations on a Half-Line

This article investigates the local well-posedness of a coupled system of wave equations on a half-line, with a particular emphasis on Robin boundary conditions within Sobolev spaces. We provide estimates for the solutions to linear initial-boundary-value problems related to the coupled system of wave equations, utilizing the Unified Transform Method in conjunction with the Hadamard norm while considering the influence of external forces. Furthermore, we demonstrate that replacing the external force with a nonlinear term alters the iteration map defined by the unified transform solutions, making it a contraction map in a suitable solution space. By employing the contraction mapping theorem, we establish the existence of a unique solution. Finally, we show that the data-to-solution map is locally Lipschitz continuous, thus confirming the local well-posedness of the coupled system of wave equations under consideration.
