Large-data modified wave operators for the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one space dimension with subcritical long-range nonlinearity
Abstract
We study long-time behavior of the solutions to the final state problem for the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) in one space dimension with the power nonlinearity |u|2σu in the subcritical long-range regime 2/√7<σ<1. Given a prescribed asymptotic profile in a weighted L2-space, without size restriction, obtained by modifying the free solution with a nonlinear polynomial phase correction, we construct a unique global solution of the NLS that scatters to this profile, thereby proving the existence of modified wave operators. The proof relies on two new ingredients. Extending our previous work for the cubic case, we incorporate the leading part of the nonlinear term into the linear part as a linear potential by linearizing the NLS around the asymptotic profile and prove a global modified energy estimate for the linearized equation. We also exploit a specific structure of the nonlinearity arising from the linearization, which gives rise to a crucial cancellation when estimating the nonlinear terms in the modified energy space and enables us to control the polynomial growth of the nonlinear phase correction in the subcritical case.
