Namely, we show that NLW experiences norm inflation at every initial data in negative Sobolev spaces. This result covers a gap left open in a paper of Christ, Colliander, and Tao (2003) and extends the result by Oh, Tzvetkov, and the second author (2019) to non-cubic integer nonlinearities. In particular, for some low dimensional cases, we obtain norm inflation above the scaling critical regularity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-08T22:23:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35L05", "35B30" ], "keywords": [ "nonlinear wave equations", "nlw experiences norm inflation", "low dimensional cases", "gap left open", "non-cubic integer nonlinearities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
