Dispersive Estimates of Schrodinger and Schrodinger-Like Equations in One Dimension

Abstract Details

2020, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences: Mathematical Sciences.
This dissertation will discuss one-dimensional dispersive estimates of the Schrodinger equation and a fourth-order Schrodinger-like equation. We prove dispersive estimates for the Schrodinger equation with Hamiltonians H =-Δ + V on R using a new approach inspired by work in the three-dimensional setting. Instead of constructing the resolvent of H out of scattering data for the potential, we identify its properties by working inside a Wiener algebra of operator-valued functions. The approach allows us to handle potentials satisfying (1+|x|)V ∈ L1 in all cases. This is the largest known class of potentials that supports an L1 to L dispersive estimate in both the resonant and non-resonant case. We replicate both of those results and prove an additional weighted dispersive estimate with |t|-3/2 decay (in the non-resonant case) that previously required stronger decay conditions on V . We consider the L1 to L dispersive estimates for the time evolution of Hamiltonians of the form H = -∂4x + V in dimension 1 with the bound |t|-1/2 . We require the potential, V = V (x), to have compact support centered around the origin and to be once-differentiable.
