The theory of the cubic NLS on R^2 is as follows.

  • LWP for Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s \ge 0\,} CaWe1990.
    • For Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s=0\,} the time of existence depends on the profile of the data as well as the norm.
    • LWP has also been obtained in Besov spaces Pl2000, Pl-p and Fourier-Lorentz spaces CaVeVi-p at the scaling of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} . This is also connected with the construction of self-similar solutions to NLS (which are generally not in the usual Sobolev spaces globally in space).
    • Below Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} we have ill-posedness by Gallilean invariance considerations in both the focusing KnPoVe2001 and defocusing CtCoTa-p2 cases.
  • GWP for Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s\geq 1/2\,} in the defocussing case FgGl2006
    • For Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s>4/7\,} in the defocussing case, this was shown in CoKeStTkTa2002
    • For Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s>3/5\,} this was shown in Bo1998.
    • For Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s>2/3\,} this was shown in Bo1998, Bo1999.
    • For Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s\ge 1\,} this follows from Hamiltonian conservation.
    • For small Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} data one has GWP and scattering for any cubic nonlinearity (not necessarily defocussing or Hamiltonian). More precisely, one has global well-posedness whenever the data has an Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} norm strictly smaller than the ground state Q Me1993. If the Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} norm is exactly equal to that of Q then one has blow-up if and only if the data is a pseudo-conformal transformation of the ground state Me1993, Me1992. In particular, the ground state is unstable.
      • Scattering is known whenever the solution is sufficiently small in Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} norm, or more generally whenever the solution is Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^4\,} in spacetime.
    • The Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s>4/7\,} result is probably improvable by correction term methods.
    • Remark: Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle s=1/2\,} is the least regularity for which the non-linear part of the solution has finite energy (Bourgain, private communication).
    • For powers slightly higher than cubic, one has scattering for large mass data Na1999c, and indeed we have bounded Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle H^k\,} norms in this case [Bourgain?].
    • If the data has sufficient decay then one has scattering. For instance if Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle xu(0)\,} is in Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} Ts1985.

  • Remark: This equation is pseudo-conformally invariant.

  • The H^k norms grow like Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle O(t^{(k-1)+})\,} as long as the H^1 norm stays bounded St1997, St1997b; this was improved to Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle t^{2/3 (k-1)+}\,} in CoDeKnSt2001, and also generalized to higher order multilinearity.

Open question: large mass behavior

It is conjectured that global wellposedness, regularity, scattering and spacetime bounds occur for all large mass initial data in the defocusing case, and all data of mass less than that of the ground state in the focusing case.

  • It is known that the only way GWP can fail at Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} is if the Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle L^2\,} norm concentrates Bo1998.
  • Blowup examples with multiple blowup points are known, either simultaneously Me1992 or non-simultaneously BoWg1997. In all known examples the mass has to be larger than that of the ground state.
    • It is conjectured that the amount of energy which can go into blowup points is quantized.
    • The Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle H^1\,} norm in these examples blows up like Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle |t|^{-1}\,.} It is conjectured that slower blow-up examples exist, in particular numerics suggest a blowup rate of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle |t|^{-1/2} (log log|t|)^{1/2}\,} LanPapSucSup1988. (This conjecture has been established by G. Perelman and in a remarkable series of papers by F. Merle and P. Raphael.) Interestingly, however, if we perturb NLS to the Zakharov system then one can only have blowup rates of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle |t|^{-1}\,.}
