Dodson, Benjamin Global well-posedness for the defocusing, cubic, nonlinear wave equation in three dimensions for radial initial data in \(\dot{H}^s \times \dot{H}^{s - 1}\), \(s> \frac{1}{2}\). (English) Zbl 1428.35224 Int. Math. Res. Not. 2019, No. 21, 6797-6817 (2019). Summary: In this paper we study the defocusing, cubic nonlinear wave equation in three dimensions with radial initial data. The critical space is \(\dot{H}^{1/2} \times \dot{H}^{-1/2}\). We show that if the initial data is radial and lies in \((\dot{H}^s \times \dot{H}^{s-1}) \cap (\dot{H}^{1/2} \times \dot{H}^{-1/2})\) for some \(s> \frac{1}{2}\), then the cubic initial value problem is globally well-posed. The proof utilizes the I-method, long time Strichartz estimates, and local energy decay. This method is quite similar to the method used in [B.
