On decaying properties of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations

Abstract

In this paper we discuss quantitative (pointwise) decay estimates for solutions to the 3D cubic defocusing Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with various initial data, deterministic and random. We show that nonlinear solutions enjoy the same decay rate as the linear ones. The regularity assumption on the initial data is much lower than in previous results (see \cite{fan2021decay} and the references therein) and moreover we quantify the decay, which is another novelty of this work. Furthermore, we show that the (physical) randomization of the initial data can be used to replace the $L^1$-data assumption (see \cite{fan2022note} for the necessity of the $L^1$-data assumption). At last, we note that this method can be also applied to derive decay estimates for other nonlinear dispersive equations.
