We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of H = - Δ + i ( A · + · A ) + V = : - Δ + L 1 for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer m and a large number λ 0 so that relative to the usual weighted L 2 -norm, ( L ( - Δ + ( λ + i 0 ) ) - 1 ) m < 1 2 2 for all λ > λ 0 . This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on A , V . The estimate (2) is trivial when A = 0 , but difficult for large A since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and then sum over all possible combinations of cones. Chains of cones that all point in the same direction lead to a Volterra-type gain of the form ( m ! ) - ε with ε > 0 fixed. On the other hand, cones that are not aligned contribute little due to the assumed decay of A ^ . We make no use of micro-local analysis, but instead rely on classical phase space techniques. As a corollary of (2), we show that the time evolution of the operator in 3 satisfies global Strichartz and smoothing estimates without any smallness assumptions. We require that zero energy is neither an eigenvalue nor a resonance.

AB - We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of \[H=-\Delta +i(A\cdot \nabla +\nabla \cdot A)+V=:-\Delta +L 1\] for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer $m$ and a large number $\lambda _0$ so that relative to the usual weighted $L^2$-norm, \[\Vert (L(-\Delta +(\lambda +i0))^{-1})^m\Vert <\frac{1}{2} 2\] for all $\lambda >\lambda _0$. This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on $A,V$. The estimate (2) is trivial when $A=0$, but difficult for large $A$ since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and then sum over all possible combinations of cones. Chains of cones that all point in the same direction lead to a Volterra-type gain of the form $(m!)^{-\varepsilon }$ with $\varepsilon >0$ fixed. On the other hand, cones that are not aligned contribute little due to the assumed decay of $\hat{A}$. We make no use of micro-local analysis, but instead rely on classical phase space techniques. As a corollary of (2), we show that the time evolution of the operator in $\mathbb {R}^3$ satisfies global Strichartz and smoothing estimates without any smallness assumptions. We require that zero energy is neither an eigenvalue nor a resonance.
