Scattering for the cubic Schr{\"o}dinger equation in 3D with randomized radial initial data

TL;DR

This paper proves almost-sure scattering for the 3D cubic defocusing Schr{"o}dinger equation with randomized radial initial data at supercritical regularity, extending previous results to a broader, energy-subcritical setting without smallness assumptions.

Contribution

It introduces a novel combination of stability theory, the I-method, and Morawetz bootstrap in a stochastic framework to establish almost-sure scattering in a supercritical, energy-subcritical regime.

Findings

First almost-sure scattering result for energy-subcritical Schr{"o}dinger equation outside small data regime

Develops a stochastic stability theory based on deterministic scattering results

Employs a globalization argument with the I-method and Morawetz bootstrap

Abstract

We obtain almost-sure scattering for the cubic defocusing Schr{\"o}dinger equation in the Euclidean space {$\mathbb{R}^3$}, with randomized radially-symmetric initial data at some supercritical regularity scales. Since we make no smallness assumption, our result generalizes the work of B{\'e}nyi, Oh and Pocovnicu. It also extends the results of Dodson, L{\"u}hrmann and Mendelson on the energy-critical equation in {$\mathbb{R}^4$}, to the energy-subcritical equation in {$\mathbb{R}^3$}. In this latter setting, even if the nonlinear Duhamel term enjoys a stochastic smoothing effect that makes it subcritical, it still has infinite energy. In the present work, we first develop a stability theory from the deterministic scattering results below the energy space, due to Colliander, Keel, Staffilani, Takaoka and Tao. Then, we propose a globalization argument in which we set up the I-method with a Morawetz bootstrap in a stochastic setting. To our knowledge, this is the first almost-sure scattering result for an energy-subcritical Schr{\"o}dinger equation outside the small data regime.
