A note on bilinear wave-Schr\"odinger interactions

Abstract

We consider bilinear restriction estimates for wave-Schr\"odinger interactions and provided a sharp condition to ensure that the product belongs to $L^q_t L^r_x$ in the full bilinear range $\frac{2}{q} + \frac{d+1}{r} < d+1$, $1 \leqslant q, r \leqslant 2$. Moreover, we give a counter-example which shows that the bilinear restriction estimate can fail, even in the transverse setting. This failure is closely related to the lack of curvature of the cone. Finally we mention extensions of these estimates to adapted function spaces. In particular we give a general transference type principle for $U^2$ type spaces that roughly implies that if an estimate holds for homogeneous solutions, then it also holds in $U^2$. This transference argument can be used to obtain bilinear and multilinear estimates in $U^2$ from the corresponding bounds for homogeneous solutions.
