Quasilinear Schrödinger equations II: Small data and cubic nonlinearities

Abstract

In part I of this project we examined low regularity local well-posedness for generic quasilinear Schrödinger equations with small data. This improved, in the small data regime, the preceding results of Kenig, Ponce, and Vega as well as Kenig, Ponce, Rolvung, and Vega. In the setting of quadratic interactions, the (translation invariant) function spaces which were utilized incorporated an $l^1$ summability over cubes in order to account for Mizohata's integrability condition, which is a necessary condition for the $L^2$ well-posedness for the linearized equation. For cubic interactions, this integrability condition meshes better with the inherent $L^2$ nature of the Schrödinger equation, and such summability is not required. Thus we are able to prove small data well-posedness in $H^s$ spaces.
