Well-posedness for the Cauchy problem of the modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation (1911.13265v1)

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem of the modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation on $\mathbb{R}^d$. If $d=2$, we prove the sharp estimate which implies local in time well-posedness in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$ for $s \geq 1/4$. If $d \geq 3$, by employing $U^p$ and $V^p$ spaces, we establish the small data global well-posedness in the scaling critical Sobolev space $H^{s_c}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ where $s_c = d/2-1$.
