Strichartz inequalities and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on compact manifolds

Source abstract

We prove Strichartz estimates with fractional loss of derivatives for the Schrödinger equation on any Riemannian compact manifold. As a consequence we infer low regularity local well-posedness results in any dimension, as well as global existence results for the Cauchy problem of nonlinear Schrödinger equations on surfaces in the case of defocusing polynomial nonlinearities, and on three-manifolds in the case of cubic defocusing nonlinearities. We also discuss the optimality of these Strichartz estimates on spheres.
