Well-posedness and scattering for fourth order nonlinear Schr\"odinger type equations at the scaling critical regularity

Abstract

In the present paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of fourth order nonlinear Schr\"odinger type equations with a derivative nonlinearity. In one dimensional case, we prove that the fourth order nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with the derivative quartic nonlinearity $\partial _x (\overline{u}^4)$ is the small data global in time well-posed and scattering to a free solution. Furthermore, we show that the same result holds for the $d \ge 2$ and derivative polynomial type nonlinearity, for example $|\nabla | (u^m)$ with $(m-1)d \ge 4$.
