Local and global well-posedness for a quadratic Schrödinger system on spheres and Zoll manifolds

Abstract

We consider the initial value problem (IVP) associated to a quadratic Schrödinger system \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} i \partial_{t} v \pm Δ_{g} v - v = ε_{1} u \bar{v}, & t \in \mathbb{R},\; x \in M, \\[2ex] i σ\partial_{t} u \pm Δ_{g} u - αu = \frac{ε_{2}}{2} v^{2}, & σ> 0, \;α\in \mathbb{R},\; ε_{i} \in \mathbb{C}\, (i = 1, 2),\\[2ex] (v(0), u(0)) = (v_0, u_0), \end{cases} \end{equation*} posed on a $d$-dimensional sphere ${\mathbb{S}}^d$ or a compact Zoll manifold $M$. Considering $\sigma =\frac{\theta }{\beta }$ with $\theta ,\beta \in \{n^2:n\in \mathbb{Z}\}$ we derive a bilinear Strichartz type estimate and use it to prove the local well-posedness results for given data $(v_0,u_0)\in H^s(M)\times H^s(M)$ whenever $s>\frac{1}{4}$ in the case $M={\mathbb{S}}^2$ or a Zoll manifold, and $s>\frac{d-2}{2}$ in the case $M={\mathbb{S}}^d$ ($d\ge 3$) induced with the canonical metric. Moreover, in dimensions $2$ and $3$, we use a Gagliardo-Nirenberg type inequality to prove that the local solution can be extended globally in time whenever $s\ge 1$.
