Small data blow-up of semi-linear wave equation with scattering dissipation and time-dependent mass

In the present paper, we study small data blow-up of the semi-linear wave equation with a scattering dissipation term and a time-dependent mass term from the aspect of wave-like behavior. The Strauss type critical exponent is determined and blow-up results are obtained to both sub-critical and critical cases with corresponding upper bound lifespan estimates. For the sub-critical case, our argument does not rely on the sign condition of dissipation and mass, which gives the extension of the result in \cite{Lai-Sch-Taka18}. Moreover, we show the blow-up result for the critical case which is a new result.
