Modified wave operators for nonlinear Schrödinger equations in the full subcritical long range regime

Abstract: We construct modified wave operators for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation $i\partial_tu+\frac12Δu=|u|<sup>pu$ in the full subcritical long-range case $0<p<2/d$, with small, nonvanishing, analytic final data $W(x)$ with bounded logarithmic gradients. Previous results established large-time asymptotics for selected classes of Cauchy data. Moreover, the exact asymptotic expansion for $p&lt;1/d$ remained unknown. When $1/d<p<2/d$, our result gives the approximation $$\frac{1}{(it)^{{\frac{d}{2}}}} e^{{\frac{i|x|^2}{2t}}} W\left(\frac{x}{t}\right) \exp\left[ -i\frac{t^{{1-\frac{dp}{2}}-1}{1-\frac{dp}{2}}} \left|W\left(\frac{x}{t}\right)\right|^p \right]$$ The wave operator is constructed by an iteration in the analytic spaces with decreasing radius. When $p\le 1/d$, we construct the profile from a finite truncation of a Fuchsian equation coupled with a transport equation. This profile still leaves a long-range triangular coupling whose terminal integral does not preserve the required fast decay class. The construction yields quantitative $L<sup>q$ asymptotics for $2\le q\le\infty$ and uniqueness in the prescribed analytic asymptotic classes. The central new ingredients are a nonlinear final-state normal form that removes this long-range coupling and a mixed iteration in particular analytic spaces.
