Scattering and rigidity for nonlinear elastic waves

Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations
For the Cauchy problem of nonlinear elastic wave equations of three dimensional isotropic, homogeneous and hyperelastic materials satisfying the null condition, global existence of classical solutions with small initial data was proved in R. Agemi (Invent. Math. 142 (2000) 225--250) and T. C. Sideris (Ann. Math. 151(2000) 849--874), independently.
