Global well-posedness for Schrodinger equations with derivative
in a nonlinear term and data in low-order Sobolev spaces
Hideo Takaoka
Abstract:
In this paper, we study the existence of global solutions
to Schrodinger equations in one space dimension with a
derivative in a nonlinear term. For the Cauchy problem
we assume that the data belongs to a Sobolev space
weaker than the finite energy space
H1.
Global existence for
H1 data follows from the
local existence and the use of a conserved quantity.
For
Hs data with
s<1, the main idea is to use a conservation
law and a frequency decomposition of the Cauchy data then follow
the method introduced by Bourgain [3].
Our proof relies on a generalization of the tri-linear estimates
associated with the Fourier restriction norm method used
in [1,25].
