Existence, general decay and blow-up of solutions for a viscoelastic Kirchhoff equation with Balakrishnan-Taylor damping and dynamic boundary conditions

Our aim in this article is to study a nonlinear viscoelastic Kirchhoff equation with strong damping, Balakrishnan-Taylor damping, nonlinear source and dynamical boundary condition. Firstly, we prove the local existence of solutions by using the Faedo-Galerkin approximation method combined with a contraction mapping theorem. We then prove that if the initial data enter into the stable set, the solution globally exists, and if the initial data enter into the unstable set, the solution blows up in a finite time. Moreover, we obtain a general decay result of the energy, from which the usual exponential and polynomial decay rates are only special cases.
