Dispersive estimates for four dimensional Schrödinger and wave equations with obstructions at zero energy (1310.6302v1)

Abstract: We investigate $L^1(\mathbb R^4)\to L^\infty(\mathbb R^4)$ dispersive estimates for the Schr\"odinger operator $H=-\Delta+V$ when there are obstructions, a resonance or an eigenvalue, at zero energy. In particular, we show that if there is a resonance or an eigenvalue at zero energy then there is a time dependent, finite rank operator $F_t$ satisfying $|F_t|{L^1\to L^\infty} \lesssim 1/\log t$ for $t>2$ such that $$|e^{itH}P{ac}-F_t|_{L^1\to L^\infty} \lesssim t^{-1},\,\,\,\,\,\text{for} t>2.$$ We also show that the operator $F_t=0$ if there is an eigenvalue but no resonance at zero energy. We then develop analogous dispersive estimates for the solution operator to the four dimensional wave equation with potential.
