Smoothing effect for Schr\"odinger boundary value problems

Abstract

We show the necessity of the non trapping condition for the plain smoothing effect ($H^{1/2}$) for Schr\"odinger equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in exterior problems. We also give a class of trapped obstacles (Ikawa's example) for which we can prove a weak ($H^{1/2 - \epsilon}$) smoothing effect.
