1. Introduction We study the one-dimensional nonlinear damped wave equation

  in the sub critical case  ∈ 2 − ε 3 , 2 , where ε > 0. Note that the case  = 2 is critical for the asymptotic behavior of solutions to (2). Recently, much attention was drawn to nonlinear wave equations with dissipative terms. The blow-up results were proved in [28] for the case of nonlinearity − |v|1+ , with  < 2, when the initial  data are such that R v0 (x) dx > 0, R v1 (x) dx > 0. Blow-up results for the critical and sub critical cases  2 were obtained in [21,28,30]. In paper [28], it was proved global existence and large time decay estimates of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the damped wave equation (2) with nonlinearities ± |v|1+ or ± |v| v, for the super critical case  > 2, if the initial data are sufficiently small and have a compact support. The large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to (2) for the super critical case  > 2 was obtained in paper [15] in the framework of the usual L2 -theory. When the initial  data are in the usual Sobolev space * u0 ∈ L1 ∩ L∞ , ||  1, u1 ∈ L1 ∩ L∞ , problem (2) was considered in [24,27]. Via the energy-type estimates obtained in papers [22,19] it was proved in [17] that solutions of the nonlinear damped wave equation (2) in the super critical cases  > 3 with arbitrary initial data u0 ∈ H1 ∩ L1 , u1 ∈ L2 ∩ L1 (i.e. without smallness assumption on the initial data) have the same large time asymptotics 2 as that for the linear heat equation *t − *x , that is u (t) − MG0 (t) Lp

Note that similar behavior first was discovered for the nonlinear heat equation vt − vxx − v 1+ = 0 in the critical case  = 2, comparing with the linear heat equation, (see [6,11]). For blow-up results we refer [5,8,20]. Large time behavior of solutions to the nonlinear heat equations in the sub critical cases  ∈ (1, 2) was obtained in papers [3,4,9,18,29].   −1 −1  −1 Taking v = u1 and 1 + *x vt = u2 , with 1 + *x = F→x 1 + i  Fx→ =   x e−x −∞ dx  ex , we rewrite Eq.

We believe that condition (7) is necessary for the global existence of solutions for the  −1  v1 (x) dx  0 solutions damped wave equation. In the case R v0 (x) + 1 + *x could blow up in a finite time.   Remark 1.2. The restriction  ∈ 2 − ε 3 , 2 with ε sufficiently small is only technical. It comes from the application of the contraction mapping principle in the proof of Lemma 3.1 below. The asymptotic behavior of solutions obtained in Theorem 1.1 is general whenever  ∈ (0, 2) with some decay restrictions on the initial data, as it happens for the nonlinear heat equation (see [4]). Indeed in [26], a sharp time decay of solutions in Lp norm is obtained recently under the condition such that the data decay exponentially at infinity but do not have any restriction on the size, where 2 2  p  n−2 for the space dimension n  3, 2  p < ∞ for n = 2 and 2  p  ∞ for n = 1. For higher space dimension with super critical nonlinearities see [16,23–25] in which asymptotic expansion of small solutions in uniform norm was studied. We organize the rest of the paper as follows. In Section 2 we obtain some preliminary estimates of the Green operator solving the linearized Cauchy problem corresponding to (3). Section 3 is devoted to the proof of Theorem 1.1. 2. Preliminary lemmas We first collect some preliminary estimates for the Green operator    G (t)  = F→x e−tL() ˆ  , in the weighted Lebesgue norms  Lp and  L1,a , where  L1,a = · a  L1 , a ∈ (0, 1), 1  p  ∞. Also we show that G (t) asymptotically behaves as a Green function G0 (t) for the heat equation    2 G0 (t)  = F→x e−t  ˆ  = G0 (t, x − y)  (y) dy R

with a kernel   2 1 1 x2 G0 (t, x) = (2)− 2 F→x e−t  = (4t)− 2 e− 4t . Denote a matrix  A0 =

By induction we see that properties (28)–(30) are true for all k  0. Thus the mapping M transforms the set X into itself. In the same manner we can estimate the differences M(w(k) ) − M(w(k−1) ) to see that M is the contraction mapping in X. Therefore there exists a unique solution w of integral equation (27) in the set X.
