Fractional Fourier transforms, harmonic oscillator propagators and Strichartz estimates on Pilipovic and modulation spaces

Abstract

We show that harmonic oscillator propagators and fractional Fourier transforms are essentially the same. We deduce continuity properties and fix time estimates for such operators on modulation spaces, and apply the results to prove Strichartz estimates for the harmonic oscillator propagator when acting on modulation spaces. Especially we extend some results by Balhara, Cordero, Nicola, Rodino and Thangavelu. We also show that general forms of fractional harmonic oscillator propagators are continuous on suitable Pilipovic spaces.
