Existence of multiple equilibrium points in global attractor for damped wave equation. (English) Zbl 1503.35113

Summary: This paper is a continuation of F. Meng and C. Zhong in [Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst., Ser. B 19, No. 1, 217–230 (2014; Zbl 1288.35101)]. We go on studying the property of the global attractor for some damped wave equation with critical exponent. The difference between this paper and [loc. cit.] is that the origin is not a local minimum point but rather a saddle point of the Lyapunov function \(F\) for the symmetric dynamical systems. Using the abstract result established in [J. Zhang et al., Nonlinear Anal., Real World Appl. 36, 44–55 (2017; Zbl 1364.35048)], we prove the existence of multiple equilibrium points in the global attractor for some wave equations under some suitable assumptions in the case that the origin is an unstable equilibrium point.
