Abstract
Abstract
The paper studies the long time behavior of a simplified model of an elastic membrane driven by surface tension and inner air pressure. The system is a degenerate quasilinear hyperbolic one that involves the mean curvature, and also includes a damping term that models the dissipative nature of genuine physical systems. With the presence of damping, a small perturbation of the sphere converges exponentially in time to the sphere, and without the damping the evolution that is
$$\varepsilon $$

. Both results are proved using a new Nash–Moser–Hörmander type theorem proved by Baldi and Haus.
