We prove wellposedness of the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrodinger equation for any defocusing power nonlinearity on a domain of the plane with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The main argument is based on a generalized Strichartz inequality on manifolds with Lipschitz metric.
In this paper, we first show that there exists a maximizer for the non-endpoint Strichartz inequalities for the Schrödinger equation in all dimensions based on the recent linear profile decomposition results. We then present a new proof of the linear profile decomposition for the Schröindger equation with initial data in the homogeneous Sobolev space; as a consequence, there exists a maximizer for the Sobolev-Strichartz inequality.
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.
We obtain Strichartz inequalities for the wave equation with potentials which behave like the inverse square potential $|x|^{-2}$ but might be not a radially symmetric function.
We prove the existence of maximizers of Sobolev-Strichartz estimates for a general class of propagators, involving relevant examples, as for instance the wave, Dirac and the hyperbolic Schrodinger flows.
In this paper, we prove the dispersive estimates and Strichartz inequalities for the solution of the Schrödinger equation related to the full Laplacian on H-type groups. This extends the results obtained by G. Furioli and A. Veneruso [Studia Math., 2004, 160: 157-178] on the Heisenberg group.
We study the existence of maximizers for a one-parameter family of Strichartz inequalities on the torus. In general maximizing sequences can fail to be precompact in $L^2(\mathbb T)$, and maximizers can fail to exist. We provide a sufficient condition for precompactness of maximizing sequences (after translation in Fourier space), and verify the existence of maximizers for a range of values of the parameter. Maximizers for the Strichartz inequalities correspond to stable, periodic (in space and time) solutions of a model equation for optical pulses in a dispersion-managed fiber.
In each dimension n >= 2, we construct a class of nonnegative potentials that are homogeneous of order -sigma, chosen from the range 0 < sigma < 2, and for which the perturbed Schrodinger equation does not satisfy global in time Strichartz estimates.
This work is devoted to prove a linear profile decomposition for the Airy equation in $\dot{H}_x^{s_k}(\mathbb{R})$, where $s_k=(k-4)/2k$ and $k>4$. We also apply this decomposition to establish the existence of maximizers for a general class of Strichartz type inequalities associated to the Airy equation.
We provide a general method to decompose any bounded sequence in $\dot H^s$ into linear dispersive profiles generated by an abstract propagator, with a rest which is small in the associated Strichartz norms. The argument is quite different from the one proposed by Bahouri-Gérard and Keraani in the cases of the wave and Schrödinger equations, and is adaptable to a large class of propagators, including those which are matrix-valued.
This paper is concerned with derivation of the global or local in time Strichartz estimates for radially symmetric solutions of the free wave equation from some Morawetz-type estimates via weighted Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) inequalities. In the same way we also derive the weighted end-point Strichartz estimates with gain of derivatives for radially symmetric solutions of the free Schroedinger equation. The proof of the weighted HLS inequality for radially symmetric functions involves an application of the weighted inequality due to Stein and Weiss and the Hardy-Littlewood maximal inequali…
We prove the existence of maximizers for Strichartz inequalities for the wave equation in dimensions $d\geq 3$. Our approach follows the scheme given by Shao, which obtains the existence of maximizers in the context of the Schrödinger equation. The main tool that we use is the linear profile decomposition for the wave equation which we prove in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 3$, extending the profile decomposition result of Bahouri and Gerard, previously obtained in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
We prove Strichartz inequalities for the wave and Schrödinger equations on noncompact surfaces with ends of finite area, i.e. with ends isometric to $ \big( (r_0,\infty) \times {\mathbb S}^1 , dr^2 + e^{- 2 ϕ(r)}d θ^2 \big) $ with $ e^{-ϕ} $ integrable. We prove first that all Strichartz estimates, with any derivative loss, fail to be true in such ends. We next show for the wave equation that, by projecting off the zero mode of $ {\mathbb S}^1 $, we recover the same inequalities as on $ {\mathbb R}^2 $. On the other hand, for the Schrödinger equation, we prove that even by projecting off the z…
We prove global Strichartz inequalities for the Schrödinger equation on a large class of asymptotically conical manifolds. Letting $ P $ be the nonnegative Laplace operator and $ f_0 \in C_0^{\infty}({\mathbb R}) $ be a smooth cutoff equal to $1$ near zero, we show first that the low frequency part of any solution $ e^{-itP} u_0 $, i.e. $ f_0 (P) e^{-itP} u_0 $, enjoys the same global Strichartz estimates as on $ {\mathbb R}^n $ in dimension $ n \geq 3 $. We also show that the high energy part $ (1-f_0)(P) e^{-itP} u_0$ also satisfies global Strichartz estimates without loss of derivatives out…
We prove local Strichartz estimates on compact manifolds with boundary. Our results also apply more generally to compact manifolds with Lipschitz metrics.
Some analogues of the Schrödinger refined Strichartz inequalities (Du, Guth, Li and Zhang) are obtained for the wave equation. These are used to improve the best known $L^2$ fractal Strichartz inequalities for the wave equation in dimensions $d \geq 4$.
In this paper we generalize the classical Strichartz estimation for solutions of initial problem for linear parabolic and Schrödinger PDE on many popular classes {\it pairs} of rearrangement invariant(r.i.) spaces and construct some examples in order to show the exactness of our estimations.
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.
A necessary and sufficient condition on the precompactness of extremal sequences for one dimensional $α$-Strichartz inequalities, equivalently $α$-Fourier extension estimates, is established based on the profile decomposition arguments. One of our main tools is an operator-convergence dislocation property consequence which comes from the van der Corput Lemma. Our result is valid in asymmetric cases as well. In addition, we obtain the existence of extremals for non-endpoint $α$-Strichartz inequalities.
We show a family of virial-type identities for the Schrödinger and wave equations with electromagnetic potentials. As a consequence, some weak dispersive inequalities in space dimension $n\geq3$, involving Morawetz and smoothing estimates, are proved; finally, we apply them to prove Strichartz inequalities for the wave equation with a non-trapping electromagnetic potential with almost Coulomb decay.
We prove dispersive and Strichartz inequalities for the solution of the wave equation related to the full Laplacian on the Heisenberg group, by means of Besov spaces defined by a Littlewood--Paley decomposition related to the spectral resolution of the full Laplacian. This requires a careful analysis due also to the non-homogeneous nature of the full Laplacian. This result has to be compared to a previous one by Bahouri, Gérard and Xu concerning the solution of the wave equation related to the Kohn-Laplacian.
For $ξ= (ξ_1, ξ_2, \ldots, ξ_d) \in \mathbb{R}^d$ let $Q(ξ) := \sum_{j=1}^d σ_j ξ_j^2$ be a quadratic form with signs $σ_j \in \{\pm1\}$ not all equal. Let $S \subset \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ be the hyperbolic paraboloid given by $S = \big\{(ξ, τ) \in \mathbb{R}^{d}\times \mathbb{R} \ : \ τ= Q(ξ)\big\}$. In this note we prove that Gaussians never extremize an $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d) \to L^{q}(\mathbb{R}^{d+1})$ Fourier extension inequality associated to this surface.
Let $u:\R \times \R^n \to \C$ be the solution of the linear Schrödinger equation $iu_t + Δu =0$ with initial data $u(0,x) = f(x)$. In the first part of this paper we obtain a sharp inequality for the Strichartz norm $\|u(t,x)\|_{L^{2k}_tL^{2k}_x(\R \times\R^n)}$, where $k\in \Z$, $k \geq 2$ and $(n,k) \neq (1,2)$, that admits only Gaussian maximizers. As corollaries we obtain sharp forms of the classical Strichartz inequalities in low dimensions (works of Foschi and Hundertmark - Zharnitsky) and also sharp forms of some Sobolev-Strichartz inequalities. In the second part of the paper we expres…
We generalize the theorems of Stein--Tomas and Strichartz about surface restrictions of Fourier transforms to systems of orthonormal functions with an optimal dependence on the number of functions. We deduce the corresponding Strichartz bounds for solutions to Schrödinger equations up to the endpoint, thereby solving an open problem of Frank, Lewin, Lieb and Seiringer. We also prove uniform Sobolev estimates in Schatten spaces, extending the results of Kenig, Ruiz, and Sogge. We finally provide applications of these results to a Limiting Absorption Principle in Schatten spaces, to the well-pos…
We investigate a class of sharp Fourier extension inequalities on the planar curves $s=|y|^p$, $p>1$. We identify the mechanism responsible for the possible loss of compactness of nonnegative extremizing sequences, and prove that extremizers exist if $1<p<p_0$, for some $p_0>4$. In particular, this resolves the dichotomy of Jiang, Pausader & Shao concerning the existence of extremizers for the Strichartz inequality for the fourth order Schrödinger equation in one spatial dimension. One of our tools is a geometric comparison principle for $n$-fold convolutions of certain singular measures in $\…
We prove scale-invariant Strichartz inequalities for the Schrodinger equation on rectangular tori (rational or irrational) in all dimensions. We use these estimates to give a unified and simpler treatment of local well-posedness of the energy-critical nonlinear Schrodinger equation in dimensions three and four.
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.
This paper is devoted to the proof of a well-posedness result for the gravity water waves equations, in arbitrary dimension and in fluid domains with general bottoms, when the initial velocity field is not necessarily Lipschitz. Moreover, for two-dimensional waves, we can consider solutions such that the curvature of the initial free surface does not belong to $L^2$. The proof is entirely based on the Eulerian formulation of the water waves equations, using microlocal analysis to obtain sharp Sobolev and Hölder estimates. We first prove tame estimates in Sobolev spaces depending linearly on Hö…
In this paper, we investigate Strichartz estimates for discrete linear Schrödinger and discrete linear Klein-Gordon equations on a lattice $h\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $h>0$, where $h$ is the distance between two adjacent lattice points. As for fixed $h>0$, Strichartz estimates for discrete Schrödinger and one-dimensional discrete Klein-Gordon equations are established by Stefanov-Kevrekidis \cite{SK2005}. Our main result shows that such inequalities hold uniformly in $h\in(0,1]$ with additional fractional derivatives on the right hand side. As an application, we obtain local well-posedness of a discr…
We consider the solution operator for the wave equation on the flat Euclidean cone over the circle of radius $ρ> 0$, the manifold $\mathbb{R}_+ \times \mathbb{R} / 2 πρ\mathbb{Z}$ equipped with the metric $\g(r,θ) = dr^2 + r^2 dθ^2$. Using explicit representations of the solution operator in regions related to flat wave propagation and diffraction by the cone point, we prove dispersive estimates and hence scale invariant Strichartz estimates for the wave equation on flat cones. We then show that this yields corresponding inequalities on wedge domains, polygons, and Euclidean surfaces with coni…
This paper deals with global dispersive properties of Schrödinger equations with real-valued potentials exhibiting critical singularities, where our class of potentials is more general than inverse-square type potentials and includes several anisotropic potentials. We first prove weighted resolvent estimates, which are uniform with respect to the energy, with a large class of weight functions in Morrey-Campanato spaces. Uniform Sobolev inequalities in Lorentz spaces are also studied. The proof employs the iterated resolvent identity and a classical multiplier technique. As an application, the …
Using the div-curl inequalities of Bourgain-Brezis [?MR2057026] and van Schaftingen [?MR2078071], we prove an improved Strichartz estimate for systems of inhomogeneous wave and Schrodinger equations, for which the inhomogeneity is a divergence-free vector field at each given time. The novelty of the result is that one can allow $L^1_x$ norms of the inhomogeneity in the right hand side of the estimate.
We obtain the Strichartz inequalities $$ \| u \|_{L^q_t L^r_x([0,1] \times M)} \leq C \| u(0) \|_{L^2(M)}$$ for any smooth $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ which is asymptotically conic at infinity (with either short-range or long-range metric perturbation) and non-trapping, where $u$ is a solution to the Schrödinger equation $iu_t + {1/2} Δ_M u = 0$, and $2 < q, r \leq \infty$ are admissible Strichartz exponents ($\frac{2}{q} + \frac{n}{r} = \frac{n}{2}$). This corresponds with the estimates available for Euclidean space (except for the endpoint $(q,r) = (2, \frac{2n}{n-2})$ when $n > …
In this paper we study the local behavior of a solution to the Lamé system with \emph{Lipschitz} coefficients in dimension $n\ge 2$. Our main result is the bound on the vanishing order of a nontrivial solution, which immediately implies the strong unique continuation property. This paper solves the open problem of the strong uniqueness continuation property for the Lamé system with Lipschitz coefficients in any dimension.
We prove bilinear virial identities for the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, which are extensions of the Morawetz interaction inequalities. We recover and extend known bilinear improvements to Strichartz inequalities and provide applications to various nonlinear problems, most notably on domains with boundaries.
We develop the existence, uniqueness, continuity, stability, and scattering theory for energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equations in dimensions $n \geq 3$, for solutions which have large, but finite, energy and large, but finite, Strichartz norms. For dimensions $n \leq 6$, this theory is a standard extension of the small data well-posedness theory based on iteration in Strichartz spaces. However, in dimensions $n > 6$ there is an obstruction to this approach because of the subquadratic nature of the nonlinearity (which makes the derivative of the nonlinearity non-Lipschitz). We resolve t…
We apply the borderline Sobolev inequalities of Bourgain-Brezis to the vorticity equation and Navier-Stokes equation in 2D. We take the initial vorticity to be in the space of functions of Bounded variation(BV). We obtain the subsequent vorticity to be in the space of functions of bounded variation, uniformly for small time, and the velocity vector to be uniformly bounded for small time. Such a conclusion cannot follow for initial vorticity taken to be just a measure or in L^1 from the Lamb-Oseen vortex example. Secondly we apply an improved Strichartz inequality obtained earlier by the first …
We study the long time behavior of radial solutions to nonlinear Schrödinger equations on hyperbolic space. We show that the usual distinction between short range and long range nonlinearity is modified: the geometry of the hyperbolic space makes every power-like nonlinearity short range. The proofs rely on weighted Strichartz estimates, which imply Strichartz estimates for a broader family of admissible pairs, and on Morawetz type inequalities. The latter are established without symmetry assumptions.

In this paper, we would like to derive three-ball inequalities and propagation of smallness for the complex second order elliptic equation with discontinuous Lipschitz coefficients. As an application of such estimates, we study the size estimate problem by one pair of Cauchy data on the boundary. The main ingredient in the derivation of three-ball inequalities and propagation of smallness is a local Carleman proved in our recent paper [FVW].
We characterize locally Lipschitz mappings and existence of Lipschitz extensions through a first order nonlinear system of PDEs. We extend this study to graded group-valued Lipschitz mappings defined on compact Riemannian manifolds. Through a simple application, we emphasize the connection between these PDEs and the Rumin complex. We introduce a class of 2-step groups, satisfying some abstract geometric conditions and we show that Lipschitz mappings taking values in these groups and defined on subsets of the plane admit Lipschitz extensions. We present several examples of these groups, called …
A new decomposition for frequency-localized solutions to the Schrodinger equation is given which describes the evolution of the wavefunction using a weighted sum of Lipschitz tubes. As an application of this decomposition, we provide a new proof of the bilinear Strichartz estimate as well as the multilinear restriction theorem for the paraboloid.
The Cauchy problem for the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation is shown to be locally well-posed in H^s(R^2) for all s>1/2 by using the Fourier restriction norm method and bilinear refinements of Strichartz type inequalities.
We study some hybrid inverse problems associated to BVP's for Schrödinger and Helmholtz type equations. The inverse problems we consider consist in the determination of coefficients from the knowledge of internal energies. We establish local Lipschitz stability inequalities as well as conditional Hölder stability inequalities.
We prove an extension of the Stein-Weiss weighted estimates for fractional integrals, in the context of Lp spaces with different integrability properties in the radial and the angular direction. In this way, the classical estimates can be unified with their improved radial versions. A number of consequences are obtained: in particular we deduce precised versions of weighted Sobolev embeddings, Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg estimates, and Strichartz estimates for the wave equation, which extend the radial improvements to the case of arbitrary functions. Then we apply this technology in order to giv…
We provide sufficient conditions for boundary Hardy inequality to hold in bounded Lipschitz domains, complement of a point (the so-called point Hardy inequality), domain above the graph of a Lipschitz function, the complement of a bounded Lipschitz domain in fractional Orlicz-Sobolev setting. As a consequence, we get sufficient conditions for regional fractional Orlicz Poincaré inequality in bounded Lipschitz domains. Necessary conditions for fractional Orlicz Hardy and regional fractional Orlicz Poincaré inequalities are also given for bounded Lipschitz domains. Various sufficient conditions …
Given a Schrödinger differential expression on an exterior Lipschitz domain we prove strict inequalities between the eigenvalues of the corresponding selfadjoint operators subject to Dirichlet and Neumann or Dirichlet and mixed boundary conditions, respectively. Moreover, we prove a strict inequality between the eigenvalues of two different elliptic differential operators on the same domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions.
We prove an extension of the Stein-Weiss weighted estimates for fractional integrals, in the context of $L^{p}$ spaces with different integrability properties in the radial and the angular direction. In this way, the classical estimates can be unified with their improved radial versions. A number of consequences are obtained: in particular we deduce precised versions of weighted Sobolev embeddings, Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg estimates, and Strichartz estimates for the wave equation, which extend the radial improvements to the case of arbitrary functions.
