Abstract

The local well-posedness for the Cauchy problem of a system of semirelativistic equations in one space dimension is shown in the Sobolev space H s of order s ≥ 0. We apply the standard contraction mapping theorem by using Bourgain type spaces X s,b. We also use an auxiliary space for the solution in L 2 = H 0. We give the global well-posedness by this conservation law and the argument of the persistence of regularity.
