On the global well-posedness and scattering of the 3D Klein-Gordon-Zakharov system

Abstract: In this paper we are interested in the global well-posedness of the 3D Klein-Gordon-Zakharov equations with small initial data. We show the uniform boundedness of the energy for the global solution without any compactness assumptions on the initial data. The main novelty of our proof is to apply a modified Alinhac's ghost weight method together with a newly developed normal-form type estimate to remedy the lack of the space-time scaling vector field; moreover, we give a clear description of the smallness conditions on the initial data.
