Derivation of the homogeneous kinetic wave equation: longer time scales (2007.03508v1)

Abstract: We consider the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation set on a flat torus, in the regime which is conjectured to lead to the kinetic wave equation; in particular, the data are random, and spread up to high frequency in a weakly nonlinear regime. We pursue the investigations of our previous paper, and show that, in the case where the torus is the standard one, only the scaling considered there allows convergence of the Dyson series up to the kinetic time scale. We also show that, for generic quadratic dispersion relations (non rectangular tori), the Dyson series converges on significantly longer time scales; we are able to reach the kinetic time up to an arbitrarily small polynomial error for a larger set of scalings. These results show the importance of the exact structure of the dispersion relation, more specifically of equidistribution properties of some bilinear quantities akin to pair correlations derived from it.
