The local maximal operator for the Schrödinger operators of order α > 1 is shown to be bounded from $H^s\left(ℝ²\right)$ to L² for any s > 3/8. This improves the previous result of Sjölin on the regularity of solutions to fractional order Schrödinger equations. Our method is inspired by Bourgain’s argument in the case of α = 2. The extension from α = 2 to general α > 1 faces three essential obstacles: the lack of Lee’s reduction lemma, the absence of the algebraic structure of the symbol and the inapplicable...

In the setting of spaces of homogeneous type, it is shown that the commutator of Calderón-Zygmund type operators as well as the commutator of a potential operator with a BMO function are bounded in a generalized grand Morrey space. Interior estimates for solutions of elliptic equations are also given in the framework of generalized grand Morrey spaces.

For the Schrödinger equation, $(i{\partial }_t+\nabla )u=0$ on a torus, an arbitrary non-empty open set $\Omega$ provides control and observability of the solution: $∥u{\left|{}_{t=0}\right.∥}_{L^2\left({𝕋}^2\right)}\le K_T{∥u∥}_{L^2([0,T]\times \Omega )}$. We show that the same result remains true for $(i{\partial }_t+\nabla -V)u=0$ where $V\in L^2\left({𝕋}^2\right)$, and ${𝕋}^2$ is a (rational or irrational) torus. That extends the results of [1], and [8] where the observability was proved for $V\in C\left({𝕋}^2\right)$ and conjectured for $V\in L^{\infty }\left({𝕋}^2\right)$. The higher dimensional generalization remains open for $V\in L^{\infty }\left({𝕋}^n\right)$.

Let Ω ⊂ Rn be a strongly Lipschitz domain. In this article, the authors study Hardy spaces, Hpr (Ω)and Hpz (Ω), and Hardy-Sobolev spaces, H1,pr (Ω) and H1,pz,0 (Ω) on , for p ∈ ( n/n+1, 1]. The authors establish grand maximal function characterizations of these spaces. As applications, the authors obtain some div-curl lemmas in these settings and, when is a bounded Lipschitz domain, the authors prove that the divergence equation div u = f for f ∈ Hpz (Ω) is solvable in H1,pz,0 (Ω) with suitable...

Let $L:=-\Delta +V$ be a Schrödinger operator on ${ℝ}^n$ with $n\ge 3$ and $V\ge 0$ satisfying ${\Delta }^{-1}V\in L^{\infty }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$. Assume that $\varphi :{ℝ}^n\times [0,\infty )\to [0,\infty )$ is a function such that $\varphi (x,·)$ is an Orlicz function, $\varphi (·,t)\in {𝔸}_{\infty }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ (the class of uniformly Muckenhoupt weights). Let $w$ be an $L$-harmonic function on ${ℝ}^n$ with $0<C_1\le w\le C_2$, where $C_1$ and $C_2$ are positive constants. In this article, the author proves that the mapping $H_{\varphi ,L}\left({ℝ}^n\right)\ni f\mapsto wf\in H_{\varphi }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ is an isomorphism from the Musielak-Orlicz-Hardy space associated with $L$, $H_{\varphi ,L}\left({ℝ}^n\right)$, to the Musielak-Orlicz-Hardy space $H_{\varphi }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ under some assumptions on $\varphi$. As applications, the author further obtains the...

We establish a multidimensional decay of oscillatory integrals with degenerate stationary points, gaining the decay with respect to all space variables. This bridges the gap between the one-dimensional decay for degenerate stationary points given by the classical van der Corput lemma and the multidimensional decay for non-degenerate stationary points given by the stationary phase method. Complex-valued phase functions as well as phases and amplitudes of limited regularity are considered. Conditions...

We extend a result of the second author [27, Theorem 1.1] to dimensions $d\ge 3$ which relates the size of $L^p$-norms of eigenfunctions for $2<p<2(d+1)/d-1$ to the amount of $L^2$-mass in shrinking tubes about unit-length geodesics. The proof uses bilinear oscillatory integral estimates of Lee [22] and a variable coefficient variant of an "$ϵ$ removal lemma" of Tao and Vargas [35]. We also use Hörmander’s [20] $L^2$ oscillatory integral theorem and the Cartan–Hadamard theorem to show that, under the assumption of nonpositive curvature,...

In the half-space ${ℝ}^d\times ℝ₊$, consider the Hermite-Schrödinger equation i∂u/∂t = -Δu + |x|²u, with given boundary values on ${ℝ}^d$. We prove a formula that links the solution of this problem to that of the classical Schrödinger equation. It shows that mixed norm estimates for the Hermite-Schrödinger equation can be obtained immediately from those known in the classical case. In one space dimension, we deduce sharp pointwise convergence results at the boundary by means of this link.

We consider an elliptic pseudodifferential equation in a multi-dimensional cone, and using the wave factorization concept for an elliptic symbol we describe a general solution of such equation in Sobolev-Slobodetskii spaces. This general solution depends on some arbitrary functions, their quantity being determined by an index of the wave factorization. For identifying these arbitrary functions one needs some additional conditions, for example, boundary conditions. Simple boundary value problems,...

For a smooth curve $\Gamma$ and a set $\Lambda$ in the plane ${ℝ}^2$, let $AC(\Gamma ;\Lambda )$ be the space of finite Borel measures in the plane supported on $\Gamma$, absolutely continuous with respect to the arc length and whose Fourier transform vanishes on $\Lambda$. Following [12], we say that $(\Gamma ,\Lambda )$ is a Heisenberg uniqueness pair if $AC(\Gamma ;\Lambda )=\left\{0\right\}$. In the context of a hyperbola $\Gamma$, the study of Heisenberg uniqueness pairs is the same as looking for uniqueness sets $\Lambda$ of a collection of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation. In this work, we mainly address the...

We solve the initial value problem for the diffusion induced by dyadic fractional derivative $s$ in ${ℝ}^{+}$. First we obtain the spectral analysis of the dyadic fractional derivative operator in terms of the Haar system, which unveils a structure for the underlying “heat kernel”. We show that this kernel admits an integrable and decreasing majorant that involves the dyadic distance. This allows us to provide an estimate of the maximal operator of the diffusion by the Hardy-Littlewood dyadic maximal operator....

In this article, the structure of semiclassical measures for solutions to the linear Schrödinger equation on the torus is analysed. We show that the disintegration of such a measure on every invariant lagrangian torus is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We obtain an expression of the Radon-Nikodym derivative in terms of the sequence of initial data and show that it satisfies an explicit propagation law. As a consequence, we also prove an observability inequality, saying...
