Nonlinear dispersive equations : local and global analysis - USA: American Mathemaical Society, [c2006] - 373 p
Chapter 1. Ordinary differential equations
Chapter 2. Constant coefficient linear dispersive equations
Chapter 3. Semilinear dispersive equations
Chapter 4. The Korteweg de Vries equation
Chapter 5. Energy-critical semilinear dispersive equations
Chapter 6. Wave maps
Among nonlinear PDEs, dispersive and wave equations form an important class of equations. These include the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the nonlinear wave equation, the Korteweg de Vries equation, and the wave maps equation. This book is an introduction to the methods and results used in the modern analysis (both locally and globally in time) of the Cauchy problem for such equations.
Starting only with a basic knowledge of graduate real analysis and Fourier analysis, the text first presents basic nonlinear tools such as the bootstrap method and perturbation theory in the simpler context of nonlinear ODE, then introduces the harmonic analysis and geometric tools used to control linear dispersive PDE. These methods are then combined to study four model nonlinear dispersive equations. Through extensive exercises, diagrams, and informal discussion, the book gives a rigorous theoretical treatment of the material, the real-world intuition and heuristics that underlie the subject, as well as mentioning connections with other areas of PDE, harmonic analysis, and dynamical systems.
