Quantitative Scattering for the Energy-Critical Wave Equation on Asymptotically Flat Spacetimes

We prove quantitative scattering for the three-dimensional defocusing energy-critical quintic wave equation on a class of asymptotically flat, possibly non-stationary perturbations of Minkowski space, by establishing the first explicit global $L^8_{t,x}$ bound in this variable-coefficient setting. Earlier work in this setting proved scattering only qualitatively. For \[ Pu=u^5,\qquad P=\partial_\alpha(g^{\alpha\beta}\partial_\beta), \] we show that, under smallness, decay, and regularity assumptions on the metric, and assuming a priori $\dot H^5\times\dot H^4$ and $L^2\times\dot H^{-1}$ bounds on the solution, the critical spacetime norm $\|u\|_{L^8_{t,x}(\mathbb R\times\mathbb R^3)}$ satisfies an explicit exponential-type estimate in terms of the energy and the a priori bound. This upgrades the qualitative scattering theory in this setting to a quantitative one. The main difficulty is to control geometric error terms over long times. We handle this by splitting the Duhamel history into recent past and remote past. For the recent past, we prove a variable-coefficient interaction Morawetz estimate that yields, on every sufficiently long interval, a time at which the recent nonlinear contribution is small. For the remote past, we prove a dispersive estimate from integrated local energy decay together with a transfer of pointwise decay from large radius to large time. Combining these estimates gives the explicit global $L^8_{t,x}$ bound.

Sequential convergence of a solution to the Chern--Simons--Schrodinger equation

In this paper we prove a sequential convergence result for blowup solutions to the $m$-equivariant, self-dual Chern--Simons--Schr{\"o}dinger equation. We show that if $u$ has mass less than twice the mass of the soliton, a blowup solution converges to the soliton along a subsequence of times that converges to the blowup time.

A Liouville theorem for the Chern--Simons--Schr{\"o}dinger equation

In this paper we prove a Liouville theorem for the Chern--Simons--Schr{\"o}dinger equation. This result is consistent with the soliton resolution conjecture for initial data that does not lie in a weighted space. See [KKO22] for the soliton resolution result in a weighted space.

Global well-posedness for the cubic nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation with initial lying in $L^{p}$-based Sobolev spaces

In this paper we continue our study [DSS20] of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) with bounded initial data which do not vanish at infinity. Local well-posedness on $\mathbb{R}$ was proved for real analytic data. Here we prove global well-posedness for the 1D NLS with initial data lying in $L^{p}$ for any $2 < p < \infty$, provided the initial data is sufficiently smooth. We do not use the complete integrability of the cubic nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation.
