We obtain weighted $L^2$ estimates for the elastic wave equation perturbed by singular potentials including the inverse-square potential. We then deduce the Strichartz estimates under the sole ellipticity condition for the Lamé operator $-Δ^\ast$. This improves upon the previous result in \cite{BFRVV} which relies on a stronger condition to guarantee the self-adjointness of $-Δ^\ast$. Furthermore, by establishing local energy estimates for the elastic wave equation we also prove that the solution has local regularity.
In this paper we investigate the dispersive properties of the solutions of the two dimensional water-waves system. First we prove Strichartz type estimates with loss of derivatives at the same low level of regularity we were able to construct the solutions in [2]. On the other hand, for smoother initial data, we prove that the solutions enjoy the optimal Strichartz estimates (i.e, without loss of regularity compared to the system linearized at (? = 0, ? = 0)).
We consider the gravity-capillary waves in any dimension and in fluid domains with general bottoms. Using the paradiferential reduction established in the companion paper, we prove Strichartz estimates for solutions to this problem, at a low regularity level such that initially, the velocity field can be non-Lipschitz up to the free surface. We then use those estimates to solve the Cauchy problem at this level of regularity.
Using recent work of Bourgain-Dyatlov we show that for any convex co-compact hyperbolic surface Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger equation hold with an arbitrarily small loss of regularity.
In this paper, we obtain sharp Strichartz estimates for solutions of the wave equation $\square_\ggϕ=0$ where $\gg$ is a rough Lorentzian metric on a 4 dimensional space-time $\MM$. This is the last step of the proof of the bounded $L^2$ curvature conjecture proposed in [3], and solved by S. Klainerman, I. Rodnianski and the author in [8], which also relies on the sequence of papers [16][17][18][19]. Obtaining such estimates is at the core of the low regularity well-posedness theory for quasilinear wave equations. The difficulty is intimately connected to the regularity of the Eikonal equation…
The gravity water waves equations describe the evolution of the surface of an incompressible, irrotational fluid in the presence of gravity. The classical regularity threshold for the well-posedness of this system requires initial velocity field in $H^s$, with $s > \frac{1}{2} + 1$, and can be obtained by proving standard energy estimates. This threshold was improved by additionally proving Strichartz estimates with loss. In this article, we establish the well-posedness result for $s > \frac{1}{2} + 1 - \frac{1}{8}$, corresponding to proving lossless Strichartz estimates. This provides the sha…
We prove dispersive estimate for the elastic wave equation by which we extend the known Strichartz estimates for the classical wave equation to those for the elastic wave equation. In particular, the endpoint Strichartz estimates are deduced. For the purpose we diagonalize the symbols of the Lamé operator and its semigroup, which also gives an alternative and simpler proofs of the previous results on perturbed elastic wave equations. Furthermore, we obtain uniform Sobolev inequalities for the elastic wave operator.
In this paper, we establish an optimal dual version of trace estimate involving angular regularity. Based on this estimate, we get the generalized Morawetz estimates and weighted Strichartz estimates for the solutions to a large class of evolution equations, including the wave and Schrödinger equation. As applications, we prove the Strauss' conjecture with a kind of mild rough data for $2\le n\le 4$, and a result of global well-posedness with small data for some nonlinear Schrödinger equation with $L^2$-subcritical nonlinearity.
We prove almost Strichartz estimates found after adding regularity in the spherical coordinates for Schrödinger-like equations. The estimates are sharp up to endpoints. The proof relies on estimates involving spherical averages. Sharpness is discussed making use of a modified Knapp-type example.
In this paper we study Strichartz estimates for the half wave, the half Klein-Gordon and the Dirac Equations on compact manifolds without boundary, proving in particular for each of these flows local in time estimates both for the wave and Schroedinger admissible couples (in this latter case with an additional loss of regularity). The strategy for the proof is based on a refined version of the WKB approximation.
In this paper we study the Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger propagator in the context of Wiener amalgam spaces which, unlike the Lebesgue spaces, control the local regularity of a function and its decay at infinity separately. This separability makes it possible to perform a finer analysis of the local and global behavior of the propagator. Our results improve some of the classical ones in the case of large time.
Water waves are well-known to be dispersive at the linearization level. Considering the fully nonlinear systems, we prove for reasonably smooth solutions the optimal Strichartz estimates for pure gravity waves and the semi-classical Strichartz estimates for gravity-capillary waves; for both 2D and 3D waves. Here, by optimal we mean the gains of regularity (over the Sobolev embedding from Sobolev spaces to Hölder spaces) obtained for the linearized systems. Our proofs combine the paradifferential reductions of Alazard-Burq-Zuily with a dispersive estimate using a localized wave package type par…
We prove inverse Strichartz theorems at $L^2$ regularity for a family of Schrödinger evolutions in one space dimension. Prior results rely on spacetime Fourier analysis and are limited to the translation-invariant equation $i\partial_t u = -\tfrac{1}{2} Δu$. Motivated by applications to the mass-critical Schrödinger equation with external potentials (such as the harmonic oscillator) we use a physical space approach.
In this paper, we explore the relations between different kinds of Strichartz estimates and give new estimates in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, we prove the generalized and weighted Strichartz estimates for a large class of dispersive operators including the Schrödinger and wave equation. As a sample application of these new estimates, we are able to prove the Strauss conjecture with low regularity for dimension 2 and 3.
In this paper we obtain some new Strichartz estimates for the Dirac flow in the context of Wiener amalgam spaces which control the local regularity of a function and its decay at infinity separately unlike $L^p$ spaces. While it is well understood recently for some flows such as the Schrödinger and wave flows that work in the non-relativistic regime, nothing is known about the Dirac flow which governs a physical system in the case of relativistic fields.
We consider the $L_t^2L_x^r$ estimates for the solutions to the wave and Schrödinger equations in high dimensions. For the homogeneous estimates, we show $L_t^2L_x^\infty$ estimates fail at the critical regularity in high dimensions by using stable Lévy process in $\R^d$. Moreover, we show that some spherically averaged $L_t^2L_x^\infty$ estimate holds at the critical regularity. As a by-product we obtain Strichartz estimates with angular smoothing effect. For the inhomogeneous estimates, we prove double $L_t^2$-type estimates.
In the first part of the paper we continue the study of solutions to Schrödinger equations with a time singularity in the dispersive relation and in the periodic setting. In the second we show that if the Schrödinger operator involves a Laplace operator with variable coefficients with a particular dependence on the space variables, then one can prove Strichartz estimates at the same regularity as that needed for constant coefficients. Our work presents a two dimensional analysis, but we expect that with the obvious adjustments similar results are available in higher dimensions.
We obtain scattering for the 3D Zakharov system with non-radial small data in the energy space with angular regularity of degree one. The main ingredient is a generalized Strichartz estimate for the Schrödinger equation in the space of $L^2$ angular integrability.
In this article we study the Schrödinger equation associated with Harmonic oscillator in the form of Strichartz type inequality. We give simple proofs for Strichartz type inequalities using purely the $L^2 \to L^p$ operator norm estimates of the spectral projections associated harmonic oscillator proved in \cite{KT}. Our Strichartz type estimates are sharp in sense of regularity of initial data.
We study the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation on a product space $M=\R\times X$ with metric $\tilde{g}=dt^2-g$ where $g$ is the scattering metic on $X$. We establish the global-in-time Strichartz estimate for Klein-Gordon equation without loss of derivative by using the microlocalized spectral measure of Laplacian on scattering manifold showed in \cite{HZ} and a Littlewood-Paley squarefunction estimate proved in \cite{Zhang}. We prove the global existence and scattering for a family of nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations for small initial data with minimum regularity on this setting.
In this paper, we study the Strichartz-type estimates of the solution for the linear wave equation with inverse square potential. Assuming the initial data possesses additional angular regularity, especially the radial initial data, the range of admissible pairs is improved. As an application, we show the global well-posedness of the semi-linear wave equation with inverse-square potential $\partial_t^2 u-Δu+\frac{a}{|x|^2}u=\pm|u|^{p-1}u$ for power $p$ being in some regime when the initial data are radial. This result extends the well-posedness result in Planchon, Stalker, and Tahvildar-Zadeh.
In this paper, we prove global well-posedness and scattering of the Cauchy problem for the elliptic-elliptic Davey-Stewartson system (eeDS) for initial data $u_{0}\in L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{2})$ in the defocusing case and for $u_{0}\in L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{2})$ with mass below that of the ground state in the focusing case. This result resolves the large data problem at the scaling-critical regularity left open by Ghidaglia and Saut in their work initiating the mathematical study of the Cauchy problem for the system. Our proof uses the concentration compactness/rigidity road map of Kenig and Merle toge…
We prove generalized Strichartz estimates with weaker angular integrability for the Schrödinger equation. Our estimates are sharp except some endpoints. Then we apply these new estimates to prove the scattering for the 3D Zakharov system with small data in the energy space with low angular regularity. Our results improve the results obtained recently in \cite{GLNW}.
We study the nonlinear Schrödinger equation associated with the sublaplacian L on the unit sphere $S^{2n+1}$ in $C^{n+1}$ equipped with its natural CR structure. We first prove Strichartz estimates with fractional loss of derivatives for the solutions of the free Schrödinger equation and we then deduce some local in time well-posedness results. Our results are stated in terms of certain Sobolev-type spaces, that measure the regularity of functions on $S^2n+1$ differently according to their spectral localization. Stronger conclusions are obtained for particular classes of solutions, correspondi…
The work is devoted to Dirichlet problem for sub-quintic semi-linear wave equation with damping damping term of the form $(-Δ)^α\partial_t u$, $α\in(0,\frac{1}{2})$, in bounded smooth domains of $\Bbb R^3$. It appears that to prove well-posedness and develop smooth attractor theory for the problem we need additional regularity of the solutions, which does not follow from the energy estimate. Considering the original problem as perturbation of the linear one the task is reduced to derivation of Strichartz type estimate for the linear wave equation with fractional damping, which is the main feat…
A standard bilinear $L^2$ Strichartz estimate for the wave equation, which underlies the theory of $X^{s,b}$ spaces of Bourgain and Klainerman-Machedon, asserts (roughly speaking) that if two finite-energy solutions to the wave equation are supported in transverse regions of the light cone in frequency space, then their product lies in spacetime $L^2$ with a quantitative bound. In this paper we consider the \emph{inverse problem} for this estimate: if the product of two waves has large $L^2$ norm, what does this tell us about the waves themselves? The main result, roughly speaking, is that the…
We prove local well-posedness for the gravity water waves equations without surface tension, with initial velocity field in $H^s$, $s > \frac{d}{2} + 1 - μ$, where $μ= \frac{1}{10}$ in the case $d = 1$ and $μ= \frac{1}{5}$ in the case $d \geq 2$, extending previous results of Alazard-Burq-Zuily. The improvement primarily arises in two areas. First, we perform an improved analysis of the regularity of the change of variables from Eulerian to Lagrangian coordinates. Second, we perform a time-interval length optimization of the localized Strichartz estimates.
In this contribution we investigate the Schrördinger equation associated to the Laplacian on the sphere in the form of sharp Strichartz estimates. We will provided simple proofs for our main theorems using purely the $L^2\rightarrow L^p$ spectral estimates for the operator norm of the spectral projections (associated to the spherical harmonics) proved in [8]. A sharp index of regularity is established for the initial data in spheres of arbitrary dimension $d\geq 2$.
This paper is concerned with the well-posedness and regularity of the distributional solutions for the stochastic acoustic and elastic scattering problems. We show that the regularity of the solutions depends on the regularity of both the random medium and the random source.
We prove localized energy estimates for the wave equation in domains with a strictly concave boundary when homogeneous Dirichlet or Neumann conditions are imposed. By restricting the solution to small, frequency dependent, space time collars of the boundary, it is seen that a stronger gain in regularity can be obtained relative to the usual energy estimates. Mixed norm estimates of Strichartz and square function type follow as a result, using the energy estimates to control error terms which arise in a wave packet parametrix construction. While the latter estimates are not new for Dirichlet co…
We establish Strichartz estimates for the radial energy-critical wave equation in 5 dimensions in similarity coordinates. Using these, we prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of the ODE blowup in the energy space.
The Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in spatial dimension $d\geq 5$ is considered. The Cauchy problem is shown to be globally well-posed for small initial data in critical spaces and it is proved that solutions scatter to free solutions as $t \to \pm \infty$. The proof is based on i) novel endpoint non-isotropic Strichartz estimates which are derived from the $(d-1)$-dimensional Schrödinger equation, ii) transversal bilinear restriction estimates, and iii) an interpolation argument in critical function spaces. Under an additional radiality assumption, a similar result is obtained in dimension $d=4$…
For any subcritical index of regularity $s>3/2$, we prove the almost global well posedness for the 2-dimensional semilinear wave equation with the cubic nonlinearity in the derivatives, when the initial data are small in the Sobolev space $H^s\times H^{s-1}$ with certain angular regularity. The main new ingredient in the proof is an endpoint version of the generalized Strichartz estimates in the space $L^2_t L_{|x|}^\infty L^2_θ([0,T]\times \R^2)$. In the last section, we also consider the general semilinear wave equations with the spatial dimension $n\ge 2$ and the order of nonlinearity $p\ge…
We prove the local existence and uniqueness of minimal regularity solutions $u$ of the semilinear generalized Tricomi equation $\partial_t^2 u-t^m Δu =F(u)$ with initial data $(u(0,\cdot), \partial_t u(0,\cdot)) \in \dot{H^γ}(\mathbb R^n) \times \dot{H}^{γ-\frac2{m+2}}(\mathbb R^n)$ under the assumption that $|F(u)|\lesssim |u|^κ$ and $|F'(u)| \lesssim |u|^{κ-1}$ for some $κ>1$. Our results improve previous results of M. Beals [2] and of ourselves [15-17]. We establish Strichartz-type estimates for the linear generalized Tricomi operator $\partial_t^2 -t^m Δ$ from which the semilinear results …
We study the Cauchy problem for 3-D nonlinear elastic waves satisfying the null condition with low regularity initial data. In the radially symmetric case, we prove the global existence of a low regularity solution for every small data in $H^3\times H^2$ with a low weight.
In this paper, the existence, uniqueness and regularity properties, Strichartz type estimates for solution of multipoint Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear Schrödinger equations with general elliptic leading part is obtained.
