Abstract
We investigate a special class of nonlinear infinite dimensional systems. These are obtained by subtracting a nonlinear maximal monotone (possibly multi-valued) operator ℳ from the semigroup generator of a scattering passive linear system. While the linear system may have unbounded linear damping (for instance, boundary damping) which is only densely defined, the nonlinear damping operator ℳ is assumed to be defined on the whole state space. We show that this new class of nonlinear infinite dimensional systems is well-posed and incrementally scattering passive. Our approach uses the theory of maximal monotone operators and the Crandall–Pazy theorem about nonlinear contraction semigroups, which we apply to a Lax–Phillips type nonlinear semigroup that represents the whole system.
