Poincaré-Dulac normal form reduction for unconditional well-posedness of the periodic cubic NLS

Abstract: We implement an infinite iteration scheme of Poincare-Dulac normal form reductions to establish an energy estimate on the one-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) in C_t L^2(T), without using any auxiliary function space. This allows us to construct weak solutions of NLS in C_t L^2(T)$ with initial data in L^2(T) as limits of classical solutions. As a consequence of our construction, we also prove unconditional well-posedness of NLS in H^s(T) for s \geq 1/6.
