Global wellposedness and scattering for the focusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrodinger equations of fourth order in the radial case

Abstract

We consider the focusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation of fourth order $i{u}_t+{\Delta }^{2}u=|u{|}^{\frac{8}{d-4}}u$. We prove that if a maximal-lifespan radial solution $u:I\times {\mathbb{R}}^d\to \mathbb{C}$ obeys $\underset{t\in I}{\sup }\Vert \Delta u(t){\Vert }_2<\Vert \Delta W{\Vert }_2$, then it is global and scatters both forward and backward in time. Here $W$ denotes the ground state, which is a stationary solution of the equation. In particular, if a solution has both energy and kinetic energy less than those of the ground state $W$ at some point in time, then the solution is global and scatters.
