Sharp estimates of the Schrödinger type propagators on modulation spaces

Abstract

This paper is devoted to conducting a comprehensive and self-contained study of the boundedness on modulation spaces of Fourier integral operators arising when solving Schrödinger type operators. The symbols of these operators belong to the Sjöstrand class $M^{\infty ,1}$, and their phase functions satisfy certain regularity conditions associated with mixed modulation spaces. Our conclusions cover two novel situations corresponding to the so-called mild and high growth of phase functions. These conclusions represent essential improvements and generalizations of existing results. Our method is based on a reasonable decomposition and scaling of the symbol and phase functions, ensuring their membership in appropriate mixed modulation spaces. In a certain sense, all conclusions of this paper are optimal.
