Let \(\Omega\) be a bounded \(C^ \infty\) domain in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) whose boundary is composed of two disjoint components \(\Gamma_ 0\) and \(\Gamma_ 1\). Consider the wave equation \(y''-\Delta y=0\) with boundary conditions \(y=\partial/\partial\nu(Gy')\) on \(\Gamma_ 0\times(0,\infty)\) and \(y=0\) on \(\Gamma_ 1\times(0,\infty)\), where \(G=(-\Delta)^{-1}: H^{-1}(\Omega)\to H_ 0^ 1(\Omega)\). The initial data are in \(L^ 2(\Omega)\times H^{-1}(\Omega)\). The authors show that under suitable conditions on the partition \(\{\Gamma_ 0,\Gamma_ 1\}\), the solution \((y(t),y'(t))\) decays exponentially to zero in \(L^ 2(\Omega)\times H^{-1}(\Omega)\) as \(t\to+\infty\). The proof uses microlocal analysis techniques. A similar result is established for a class of boundary conditions containing the classical \(y'+\partial y/\partial\nu=0\) and, as a limit case, the above boundary conditions. A stabilization result for the case of absorbing boundary conditions is also given.
