The improvement primarily arises in two areas. First, we perform an improved analysis of the regularity of the change of variables from Eulerian to Lagrangian coordinates. Second, we perform a time-interval length optimization of the localized Strichartz estimates.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-12-21T08:01:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "low regularity solutions", "gravity water waves equations", "time-interval length optimization", "initial velocity field", "local well-posedness" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 52, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
