Abstract
In this paper, we would like to consider the Cauchy problem for a weakly coupled system of semi-linear damped wave equations with mixed nonlinear terms. Our main objective is to draw conclusions about the critical curve of this problem using tools from Harmonic Analysis. Precisely, we obtain a new critical curve $pq = 1+ \frac{2}{n}$ for $n =1,2$ by proving global (in time) existence of small data Sobolev solutions when $pq > 1 +\frac{2}{n}$ and blow-up of weak solutions in finite time even for small data when $pq < 1+ \frac{2}{n}$ for $n \geq 1$. From this, we infer the impact of the nonlinearities of time derivative-type on the critical curve associated with the system.
