Abstract

In this discussion paper we present an idea of combining techniques known from systems theory with energy estimates to show existence for a class of non-linear partial differential equations (pde’s). At the end of the paper a list of research questions with possible approaches is given.

Keywords

impedance passive system, non-linear pde, well-posed system
