Endpoint Strichartz estimates

01 Oct 1998-American Journal of Mathematics (Johns Hopkins University Press)-Vol. 120, Iss: 5, pp 955-980
TL;DR: In this paper, an abstract Strichartz estimate for the wave equation (in dimension n ≥ 4) and for the Schrodinger equation (n ≥ 3) was proved.
Abstract: We prove an abstract Strichartz estimate, which implies previously unknown endpoint Strichartz estimates for the wave equation (in dimension n ≥ 4) and the Schrodinger equation (in dimension n ≥ 3). Three other applications are discussed: local existence for a nonlinear wave equation; and Strichartz-type estimates for more general dispersive equations and for the kinetic transport equation.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for data whose energy is smaller than that of the standing wave, and whose homogeneous Sobolev norm H^1 is smaller compared to that of a standing wave and which is radial, we have global well-posedness and scattering in dimensions 3, 4 and 5.
Abstract: We prove, for the energy critical, focusing NLS, that for data whose energy is smaller than that of the standing wave, and whose homogeneous Sobolev norm H^1 is smaller than that of the standing wave and which is radial, we have global well-posedness and scattering in dimensions 3, 4 and 5. This is sharp since if the data is in the inhomogeneous Sobolev space H^1, of energy smaller than the standing wave but of larger homogeneous H^1 norm, we have blow-up in finite time. The result follows from a general method that we introduce into this type of critical problem. By concentration-compactness we produce a critical element, which modulo the symmetries of the equation is compact, has minimal energy among those which fail to have the conclusion of our theorem. In addition, we show that the dilation parameter in the symmetry, for this solution, can be taken strictly positive.We then establish a rigidity theorem that shows that no such compact, modulo symmetries, object can exist. It is only at this step that we use the radial hypothesis.The same analysis, in a simplified form, applies also to the defocusing case, giving a new proof of results of Bourgain and Tao.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors obtained global well-posedness, scattering, and global L 10 spacetime bounds for energy-class solutions to the quintic defocusing Schrodinger equa- tion in R 1+3, which is energy-critical.
Abstract: We obtain global well-posedness, scattering, and global L 10 spacetime bounds for energy-class solutions to the quintic defocusing Schrodinger equa- tion in R 1+3 , which is energy-critical. In particular, this establishes global existence of classical solutions. Our work extends the results of Bourgain (4) and Grillakis (20), which handled the radial case. The method is similar in spirit to the induction-on-energy strategy of Bourgain (4), but we perform the induction analysis in both frequency space and physical space simultaneously, and replace the Morawetz inequality by an interaction variant (first used in (12), (13)). The principal advantage of the interaction Morawetz estimate is that it is not localized to the spatial origin and so is better able to handle nonradial solutions. In particular, this interaction estimate, together with an almost-conservation argument controlling the movement of L 2 mass in fre- quency space, rules out the possibility of energy concentration.

TL;DR: In this article, Strichartz estimates with fractional loss of derivatives for the Schrodinger equation on any Riemannian compact manifold were shown to have low regularity local well-posedness results in any dimension.
Abstract: kklWe prove Strichartz estimates with fractional loss of derivatives for the Schrodinger equation on any Riemannian compact manifold. As a consequence we infer low regularity local well-posedness results in any dimension, as well as global existence results for the Cauchy problem of nonlinear Schrodinger equations on surfaces in the case of defocusing polynomial nonlinearities, and on three-manifolds in the case of cubic defocusing nonlinearities. We also discuss the optimality of these Strichartz estimates on spheres.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established dispersive estimates for solutions to the linear Schrodinger equation in three dimensions 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3, respectively.
Abstract: In this paper we establish dispersive estimates for solutions to the linear Schrodinger equation in three dimensions 0.1 $$\frac{1}{i}\partial_t \psi - \triangle \psi + V\psi = 0,\qquad \psi(s)=f$$ where V(t,x) is a time-dependent potential that satisfies the conditions $$\sup_{t}\|V(t,\cdot)\|_{L^{\frac{3}{2}}(\mathbb{R}^3)} + \sup_{x\in\mathbb{R}^3}\int_{\mathbb{R}^3} \int_{-\infty}^\infty\frac{|V(\hat{\tau},x)|}{|x-y|}\,d\tau\,dy < c_0.$$ Here c 0 is some small constant and $V(\hat{\tau},x$) denotes the Fourier transform with respect to the first variable. We show that under these conditions (0.1) admits solutions ψ(·)∈L ∞ t (L 2 x (ℝ3))∩L 2 t (L 6 x (ℝ3)) for any f∈L 2(ℝ3) satisfying the dispersive inequality 0.2 $$\|\psi(t)\|_{\infty} \le C|t-s|^{-\frac32}\,\|f\|_1 \text{\ \ for all times $t,s$.}$$ For the case of time independent potentials V(x), (0.2) remains true if $$\int_{\mathbb{R}^6} \frac{|V(x)|\;|V(y)|}{|x-y|^2} \, dxdy <(4\pi)^2\text{\ \ \ and\ \ \ }\|V\|_{\mathcal{K}}:=\sup_{x\in\mathbb{R}^3}\int_{\mathbb{R}^3} \frac{|V(y)|}{|x-y|}\,dy<4\pi.$$ We also establish the dispersive estimate with an e-loss for large energies provided $\|V\|_{\mathcal{K}}+\|V\|_2<\infty$ . Finally, we prove Strichartz estimates for the Schrodinger equations with potentials that decay like |x|-2-e in dimensions n≥3, thus solving an open problem posed by Journe, Soffer, and Sogge.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of identifying sharp criteria under which radial H1 (finite energy) solutions to the focusing 3d cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) i∂tu + Δu + |u|2u = 0 scatter, i.e., approach the solution to a linear Schroffinger equation as t → ±∞.
Abstract: We consider the problem of identifying sharp criteria under which radial H1 (finite energy) solutions to the focusing 3d cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) i∂tu + Δu + |u|2u = 0 scatter, i.e., approach the solution to a linear Schrodinger equation as t → ±∞. The criteria is expressed in terms of the scale-invariant quantities \({\|u_0\|_{L^2}\| abla u_0\|_{L^2}}\) and M[u]E[u], where u0 denotes the initial data, and M[u] and E[u] denote the (conserved in time) mass and energy of the corresponding solution u(t). The focusing NLS possesses a soliton solution eitQ(x), where Q is the ground-state solution to a nonlinear elliptic equation, and we prove that if M[u]E[u] \|Q\|_{L^2}\| abla Q\|_{L^2}}\), then the solution blows-up in finite time. The technique employed is parallel to that employed by Kenig-Merle [17] in their study of the energy-critical NLS.

TL;DR: Stein's seminal work Real Analysis as mentioned in this paper is considered the most influential mathematics text in the last thirty-five years and has been widely used as a reference for many applications in the field of analysis.
Abstract: Singular integrals are among the most interesting and important objects of study in analysis, one of the three main branches of mathematics. They deal with real and complex numbers and their functions. In this book, Princeton professor Elias Stein, a leading mathematical innovator as well as a gifted expositor, produced what has been called the most influential mathematics text in the last thirty-five years. One reason for its success as a text is its almost legendary presentation: Stein takes arcane material, previously understood only by specialists, and makes it accessible even to beginning graduate students. Readers have reflected that when you read this book, not only do you see that the greats of the past have done exciting work, but you also feel inspired that you can master the subject and contribute to it yourself. Singular integrals were known to only a few specialists when Stein's book was first published. Over time, however, the book has inspired a whole generation of researchers to apply its methods to a broad range of problems in many disciplines, including engineering, biology, and finance. Stein has received numerous awards for his research, including the Wolf Prize of Israel, the Steele Prize, and the National Medal of Science. He has published eight books with Princeton, including Real Analysis in 2005.
