Global existence for a quasilinear wave equation outside of star-shaped domains
Journées équations aux dérivées partielles (2001), article no. 12, 6 p.

This talk describes joint work with Chris Sogge and Markus Keel, in which we establish a global existence theorem for null-type quasilinear wave equations in three space dimensions, where we impose Dirichlet conditions on a smooth, compact star-shaped obstacle 𝒦⊂ℝ 3 . The key tool, following Christodoulou [1], is to use the Penrose compactification of Minkowski space. In the case under consideration, this reduces matters to a local existence theorem for a singular obstacle problem. Full details will appear in our joint paper of the same title.
