In the present paper, we consider the initial value problem for semilinear damped wave equations in one space dimension. Wakasugi [7] have obtained an upper bound of the lifespan for the problem only in the subcritical case. On the other hand, D'Abbicco $\&$ Lucente $\&$ Reissig [3] showed a blow-up result in the critical case. The aim of this paper is to give an estimate of the upper bound of the lifespan in the critical case, and show the optimality of the upper bound. Also, we derive an estimate of the lower bound of the lifespan in the subcritical case which shows the optimality of the upper bound in [7]. Moreover, we show that the critical exponent changes when the initial data are odd functions.
Keywords: semilinear damped wave equation, lifespan, Initial value problem, critical exponent, one space dimension.
