We show that any $L^2$ solution of the Gabitov-Turitsyn equation describing dispersion managed solitons decay exponentially in space and frequency domains. This confirms in the affirmative Lushnikov's conjecture of exponential decay of dispersion managed solitons.
An analog of the Falconer distance problem in vector spaces over finite fields asks for the threshold $α>0$ such that $|Δ(E)| \gtrsim q$ whenever $|E| \gtrsim q^α$, where $E \subset {\Bbb F}_q^d$, the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field with $q$ elements (not necessarily prime). Here $Δ(E)=\{{(x_1-y_1)}^2+...+{(x_d-y_d)}^2: x,y \in E\}$. In two dimensions we improve the known exponent to $\tfrac{4}{3}$, consistent with the corresponding exponent in Euclidean space obtained by Wolff. The pinned distance set $Δ_y(E)=\{{(x_1-y_1)}^2+...+{(x_d-y_d)}^2: x\in E\}$ for a pin $y\in E$ has been studied in the Euclidean setting. Peres and Schlag showed that if the Hausdorff dimension of a set $E$ is greater than $\tfrac{d+1}{2}$ then the Lebesgue measure of $Δ_y(E)$ is positive for almost every pin $y$. In this paper we obtain the analogous result in the finite field setting. In addition, the same result is shown to be true for the pinned dot product set $Π_y(E)=\{x\cdot y: x\in E\}$. Under the additional assumption that the set $E$ has cartesian product structure we improve the pinned threshold for both distances and dot products to $\frac{d^2}{2d-1}$. A generalization of the Falconer distance problem is determine the minimal $α>0$ such that $E$ contains a congruent copy of every $k$ dimensional simplex whenever $|E| \gtrsim q^α$. Here the authors improve on known results (for $k>3$) using Fourier analytic methods, showing that $α$ may be taken to be $\frac{d+k}{2}$.
It is shown that a large subset of initial data with finite energy ($L^2$ norm)evolves nearly linearly in nonlinear Schr\" odinger equation with periodic boundary conditions. These new solutions are not perturbations of the known ones such as solitons, semiclassical or weakly linear solutions.
In this paper we consider magnetic Schrödinger operators in R^n, n \ge 3. Under almost optimal conditions on the potentials in terms of decay and regularity we prove smoothing and Strichartz estimates, as well as a limiting absorption principle. For large gradient perturbations the latter is not a corollary of the free case as the differentiated free resolvent does not have small operator norm on any weighted L^2 spaces. We instead show that the spectral radius of such operators decreases to zero, hence their perturbation of the identity is still invertible. The key estimates are based on an angular decomposition of the free resolvent, or rather a bound that holds uniformly for all possible angular decompositions. The proof avoids the Fourier transform and instead uses Hörmander's variable coefficient Plancherel theorem for oscillatory integrals.
We show that the time evolution of the operator $H = -Δ+ i(A \cdot \nabla + \nabla \cdot A) + V$ in R^3 satisfies Strichartz and smoothing estimates under suitable smoothness and decay assumptions on A and V but without any smallness assumptions. We require that zero energy is neither an eigenvalue nor a resonance.
In this paper we investigate the mapping properties in Lebesgue-type spaces of certain generalized Radon transforms defined by integration over curves.
