Stabilization for the Klein–Gordon–Zakharov system

This paper deals with global stability dynamics for the Klein–Gordon–Zakharov system in R 2 . We first establish that this system admits a family of linear mode unstable explicit quasi-periodic wave solutions. Next, we prove that the Kelvin–Voigt damping can help to stabilize those linear mode unstable explicit quasi-periodic wave solutions for the Klein–Gordon–Zakharov system in the Sobolev space H s + 1 ( R 2 ) × H s + 1 ( R 2 ) × H s + 1 ( R 2 ) for any s ⩾ 1. Moreover, the Kelvin–Voigt damped Klein–Gordon–Zakharov system admits a unique Sobolev regular solution exponentially convergent to some special solutions (including quasi-periodic wave solutions) of it. Our result can be extended to the n-dimension dissipative Klein–Gordon–Zakharov system for any n ⩾ 1.
