Sobolev-Lorentz spaces with an application to the inhomogeneous biharmonic NLS equation
We consider the Cauchy problem for the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger (IBNLS) equation \[iu_{t} +\Delta^{2} u=\lambda |x|^{-b}|u|^{\sigma}u,\;u(0)=u_{0} \in H^{s} (\mathbb R^{d}),\] where $\lambda\in \mathbb R$, $d\in \mathbb N$, $0\le s<\min\left\{2+\frac{d}{2},d\right\}$, $0 0$. Applying this estimate and the contraction mapping principle based on Strichartz estimates in Lorentz spaces, we then establish the local well-posedness in $H^{s}$ for the IBNLS equation in both of subcritical case $\sigma<\sigma_{c}(s)$ and critical case $\sigma=\sigma_{c}(s)$. We also prove that the IBNLS equation is globally well-posed in $H^{s}$, if the initial data is sufficiently small and $\frac{8-2b}{d}\le \sigma\le \sigma_{c}(s)$ with $\sigma<\infty$.
