Convolutions of singular measures and applications to the Zakharov system

Uniform L^2-estimates for the convolution of singular measures with respect to transversal submanifolds are proved in arbitrary space dimension. The results of Bennett-Bez are used to extend previous work of Bejenaru-Herr-Tataru. As an application, it is shown that the 3D Zakharov system is locally well-posed in the full subcritical regime.

Near soliton evolution for equivariant Schroedinger Maps in two spatial dimensions

We consider the Schrödinger Map equation in $2+1$ dimensions, with values into $§^2$. This admits a lowest energy steady state $Q$, namely the stereographic projection, which extends to a two dimensional family of steady states by scaling and rotation. We prove that $Q$ is unstable in the energy space $\dot H^1$. However, in the process of proving this we also show that within the equivariant class $Q$ is stable in a stronger topology $X \subset \dot H^1$.

A convolution estimate for two-dimensional hypersurfaces

Given three transversal and sufficiently regular hypersurfaces in R^3 it follows from work of Bennett-Carbery-Wright that the convolution of two L^2 functions supported of the first and second hypersurface, respectively, can be restricted to an L^2 function on the third hypersurface, which can be considered as a nonlinear version of the Loomis-Whitney inequality. We generalize this result to a class of C^{1,beta} hypersurfaces in R^3, under scaleable assumptions. The resulting uniform L^2 estimate has applications to nonlinear dispersive equations.

On the 2d Zakharov system with L^2 Schrödinger data

We prove local in time well-posedness for the Zakharov system in two space dimensions with large initial data in L^2 x H^{-1/2} x H^{-3/2}. This is the space of optimal regularity in the sense that the data-to-solution map fails to be smooth at the origin for any rougher pair of spaces in the L^2-based Sobolev scale. Moreover, it is a natural space for the Cauchy problem in view of the subsonic limit equation, namely the focusing cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation. The existence time we obtain depends only upon the corresponding norms of the initial data - a result which is false for the cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation in dimension two - and it is optimal because Glangetas-Merle's solutions blow up at that time.

Global Schrödinger maps

We consider the Schrödinger map initial-value problem in dimension two or greater. We prove that the Schrödinger map initial-value problem admits a unique global smooth solution, provided that the initial data is smooth and small in the critical Sobolev space. We prove also that the solution operator extends continuously to the critical Sobolev space.

Global wellposedness in the energy space for the Maxwell-Schrödinger system

We prove that the Maxwell-Schrödinger system in $\R^{3+1}$ is globally well-posed in the energy space. The key element of the proof is to obtain a short time wave packet parametrix for the magnetic Schrödinger equation, which leads to linear, bilinear and trilinear estimates. These, in turn, are extended to larger time scales via a bootstrap argument.

Sharp well-posedness and ill-posedness results for a quadratic non-linear Schrödinger equation

We establish that the quadratic non-linear Schrödinger equation $$ iu_t + u_{xx} = u^2$$ where $u: \R \times \R \to \C$, is locally well-posed in $H^s(\R)$ when $s \geq -1$ and ill-posed when $s < -1$. Previous work of Kenig, Ponce and Vega had established local well-posedness for $s > -3/4$. The local well-posedness is achieved by an iteration using a modification of the standard $X^{s,b}$ spaces. The ill-posedness uses an abstract and general argument relying on the high-to-low frequency cascade present in the non-linearity, and a computation of the first non-linear iterate.

Large data local solutions for the derivative NLS equation

We consider the Derivative NLS equation with general quadratic nonlinearities. In \cite{be2} the first author has proved a sharp small data local well-posedness result in Sobolev spaces with a decay structure at infinity in dimension $n = 2$. Here we prove a similar result for large initial data in all dimensions $n \geq 2$.

Low regularity solutions for a 2D quadratic non-linear Schrödinger equation

We establish that the initial value problem for the quadratic non-linear Schrödinger equation $$ iu_t - Δu = u^2$$ where $u: \R^2 \times \R \to \C$, is locally well-posed in $H^s(\R^2)$ when $s > -1$. The critical exponent for this problem is $s_c=-1$ and previous work in \cite{c1} established local well-posedness for $s > -3/4$.

On Schrödinger Maps

We study the local well-posedness theory for the Schrödinger Maps equation. We work in $n+1$ dimensions, for $n \geq 2$, and prove a local well-posedness for small initial data in $H^{\frac{n}{2}+\e}$.

In this paper we consider the local well-posedness theory for the quadratic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with low regularity initial data in the case when the nonlinearity contains derivatives. We work in 2+1 dimensions and prove a local well-posedness result close to scaling for small initial data.

Quadratic Nonlinear Derivative Schrödiger Equations - Part 1

In this paper we consider the local well-posedness theory for the quadratic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with low regularity initial data in the case when the nonlinearity contains derivatives. We work in 2+1 dimensions and prove a local well-posedness result up to the scaling for small initial data with some spherical symmetry structure.
