1 Introduction

The problems dealing with Maxwells equations with nonzero conductivity are not only theoretical interesting but also very important in many industrial applications (see e.g. [3], [7], [8]). Letbe a bounded open connected region inR 3 , with a smooth boundary@. We suppose that is simply connected and@has only one connected component. The domainis occupied by an electromagnetic medium of constant electric permittivity" o and constant magnetic permeability o . LetEandH Thethe electric and magnetic elds respectively.denote  Maxwells equations with Ohms law are described by 8 " o @ t EcurlH+E= 0in[0;+1) > <  o @ t H (v + i c d u o rl H E )0= =0in in    [0 0[ ; ; + + 1 1 ) ) (1.1) E=H= 0on@[0;+1) > : (E; H) (;0) = (E o ; H o )in. Here,(E o ; H o )are the initial data in the energy spaceL 2 () 6 anddenotes the outward unit normal vector to@. The conductivity is such that2L 1 ()and0. It is well-known that when the conductivity is identically null, then the above system is conservative and whenis bounded from below by a positive constant, then an exponential energy decay rate holds for the Maxwells equations with Ohms law in the energy space. The situation becomes more delicate when we only assume that

estimate. Precisely, in order to get an exponential decay rate in the energy space we should have the following observability inequality 9C; T c >080 Z  j(E; H) (; )j 2 dxC Z  +T c Z  jEj 2 dxdt

We above observability inequality for any initial data in the energy space intersecting suitable invariant subspaces but not with the conditiondivE o = 0in. Such estimate is established in [11] under the geometric control condition of Bardos, Lebeau and Rauch [2] for the scalar wave operator and when the conductivity has the property that(x)constant >0for allx2!and(x) = 0for allx2n! now, we consider a subset. From!that the geometric control condition for thesuch scalar wave operator or other assumptions based on the multiplier method fail. In such geometry, we do not hope an exponential energy decay rate in the energy space. Our geometry (described precisely in Section 3) presents parallel trapped rays and can be compared to the one in [12] or in [4],[10] for the two dimensional case. It generalises the cube (see [8]) and therefore explicit and analytical results are harder to obtain. Our main result gives a polynomial energy decay with regular initial data. Our proof is based on a new kind of observation inequality (see (4.33) below) which can also be seen as an interpolation estimate. It relies with the construction of a particular solution for the operator i@ s +h  @ t 2  inspired by the gaussian beam techniques. the dispersion property for the one Also dimensional Schrödinger operator will play a key role.

The plan of the paper is as follows. In the next section, we recall the known results about the Maxwells equations with Ohms law that will be used in the following. Section 3 contains the statement of our main result, while Section 4 is concerned with its proof. In Section 5, we present the interpolation estimate, while Section 6 includes its proof. Finally, two appendix are added dealing with inequalities involving Fourier analysis.

2 The Maxwells equations with Ohms law

We begin to recall some well-known results concerning the Maxwells equations with Ohms law: well- posedness, energy identity, standard orthogonal decomposition and asymptotic behaviour in time of the energy of the electromagnetic eld.

2.1 Well-posedness of the problem

Let us introduce the spaces V=L 2 () 3  n G2L 2 () 3 ; divG= 0; G j@ = 0 o , W= n (F; G)2L 2 () 6 ; curlF2L 2 () 3 ; F j@ = 0; divG= 0; G j@ = 0;curlG2L 2 () 3 o .

It is well-known that if(E o ; H o )2 V, there is a unique weak solution(E; H)2C 0 ([0;+1);V). Further, if(E o ; H o )2 W, there is a unique strong solution(E; H)2C 0 ([0;+1);W)\C 1 ([0;+1);V).
