Abstract

Georgia Southern University faculty member Shijun Zheng co-authored “Harmonic Analysis Related to Schrödinger Operators” in the publication Contemporary Mathematics in AMS Book Series.

Chapter Summary: In this article we give an overview on some recent development of Littlewood-Paley theory for Schrödinger operators. We extend the Littlewood-Paley theory for special potentials considered in the authors' previous work. We elaborate our approach by considering potential in C∞0 or Schwartz class in one dimension. In particular the low energy estimates are treated by establishing some new and refined asymptotics for the eigenfunctions and their Fourier transforms. We give maximal function characterization of the Besov spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces associated with H. Then we prove a spectral multiplier theorem on these spaces and derive Strichartz estimates for the wave equation with a potential. We also consider similar problem for the unbounded potentials in the Hermite and Laguerre cases, whose potentials V=a|x|2+b|x|−2 are known to be critical in the study of perturbation of nonlinear dispersive equations. This improves upon the previous results when we apply the upper Gaussian bound for the heat kernel and its gradient.
