Abstract
We consider the Cauchy problem for the Kirchhoff equation on Td with initial data of small amplitude ϵ in Sobolev class. We prove a lower bound ϵ-4 for the existence time, which improves the bound ϵ-2 given by the standard local theory. The proof relies on a normal form transformation, preceded by a nonlinear transformation that diagonalizes the operator at the highest order, which is needed because of the quasilinear nature of the equation.File in questo prodotto:
