The endpoint case of Carleson's pointwise convergence problem for the Schrodinger equation: a.e. convergence for data in H^{n/(2(n+1))}

Planar theorem: for every f∈H1/3(R2)f\in H^{1/3}(\mathbb R^2) there is a full-measure set EfE_f on which the Gaussian-regularised evolution has a limit for every 0<t<10<t<1 and converges to ff as t↓0t\downarrow0. Higher-dimensional theorem: the same for f∈Hn/(2(n+1))(Rn)f\in H^{n/(2(n+1))}(\mathbb R^n), every n≥3n\ge3. With Bourgain's necessary condition this gives the exact range s≥n/(2(n+1))s\ge n/(2(n+1)) for n≥2n\ge2. Not shown: the endpoint local L3L^3 maximal inequality in the plane, sharp LpL^p maximal estimates at the endpoint in higher dimensions, or results for other dispersive equations or convergence along curves.

Planar theorem: for every f∈H1/3(R2)f\in H^{1/3}(\mathbb R^2) there is a full-measure set EfE_f on which the Gaussian-regularised evolution has a limit for every 0<t<10<t<1 and converges to ff as t↓0t\downarrow0. Higher-dimensional theorem: the same for f∈Hn/(2(n+1))(Rn)f\in H^{n/(2(n+1))}(\mathbb R^n), every n≥3n\ge3.
