Defocusing Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations

This study of Schrdinger equations with power-type nonlinearity provides a great deal of insight into other dispersive partial differential equations and geometric partial differential equations. It presents important proofs using tools from harmonic analysis microlocal analysis functional analysis and topology. This includes a new proof of KeelTao endpoint Strichartz estimates and a new proof of Bourgain''s result for radial energy-critical NLS. It also provides a detailed presentation of scattering results for energy-critical and mass-critical equations. This book is suitable as the basis for a one-semester course and serves as a useful introduction to nonlinear Schrdinger equations for those with a background in harmonic analysis functional analysis and partial differential equations.
