In this paper, we consider the nonlinearity $G$ of the polynomial \\[ G(z)=G(z_1,\\cdots,z_{2(\\gamma+1)}) :=\\sum_{m\\le |\\alpha|\\le l}C_{\\alpha}z^{\\alpha}, \\] for $z\\in \\mathbb{C}^{2(\\gamma+1)}$, where $m,l\\in\\mathbb{N}$ with $3\\le m\\le l$ and $C_{\\alpha}\\in \\mathbb{C}$ with $\\alpha\\in (\\mathbb{N}\\cup \\{0\\})^{2(\\gamma+1)}$ is a constant. The purpose of the present paper is to prove well-posedness of the problem (\\ref{0-1}) in the lower order Sobolev space $H^s(\\mathbb{R})$ or with more general nonlinearities than previous results. Our proof of the main results is based on the contraction mapping principle on a suitable function space employed by D. Pornnopparath (2018). To obtain the key linear and bilinear estimates, we construct a suitable decomposition of the Duhamel term introduced by I. Bejenaru, A. D. Ionescu, C. E. Kenig, and D. Tataru (2011). Moreover we discuss scattering of global solutions and the optimality for the regularity of our well-posedness results, namely we prove that the flow map is not smooth in several cases.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-04-07T09:10:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "nonlinearity", "third order derivative nonlinearities", "fourth-order schrödinger equation", "well-posedness", "lower order sobolev space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 73, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
