Frequency-localized dispersive estimates for the wave equation on flat cones

About 15 years old · traced to

Let C(Sρ1)C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho) be the flat cone with metric g\mathrm{g}, let Δg\Delta_{\mathrm{g}} be its Laplace operator, and let ∇g\nabla_{\mathrm{g}} denote the associated gradient. For a smooth cutoff β\beta supported in (14,4)\left(\frac{1}{4},4\right) and a frequency parameter μ>0\mu>0, define

U(t)=sin⁡(tΔg)Δg,U˙(t)=cos⁡(tΔg).{\mathcal{U}}(t)=\frac{\sin\left(t\sqrt{\Delta_{\mathrm{g}}}\right)}{\sqrt{\Delta_{\mathrm{g}}}},\qquad {\dot{\mathcal{U}}}(t)=\cos\left(t\sqrt{\Delta_{\mathrm{g}}}\right).

Frequency-localized dispersive estimate. If

β ⁣(μ−1Δg)f=f,β ⁣(μ−1Δg)g=g,\beta\!\left(\mu^{-1}\sqrt{\Delta_{\mathrm{g}}}\right)f=f,\qquad \beta\!\left(\mu^{-1}\sqrt{\Delta_{\mathrm{g}}}\right)g=g,

then

∥U(t)g∥L∞(C(Sρ1))≲μ(1+μ∣t∣)−1/2∥g∥L1(C(Sρ1)),\left\|{\mathcal{U}}(t)g\right\|_{L^\infty(C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho))}\lesssim \mu(1+\mu|t|)^{-1/2}\left\|g\right\|_{L^1(C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho))},

and

∥U˙(t)f∥L∞(C(Sρ1))≲μ(1+μ∣t∣)−1/2(μ∥f∥L1(C(Sρ1))+∥∇gf∥L1(C(Sρ1))).\left\|{\dot{\mathcal{U}}}(t)f\right\|_{L^\infty(C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho))}\lesssim \mu(1+\mu|t|)^{-1/2}\left(\mu\left\|f\right\|_{L^1(C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho))}+\left\|\nabla_{\mathrm{g}}f\right\|_{L^1(C(\mathbb{S}^1_\rho))}\right).

These frequency-localized L1→L∞L^1\to L^\infty bounds are intended to provide the dispersive input for Strichartz estimates for the wave equation on a flat cone. The supplied text presents them as the estimates one needs to prove, but gives no resolution status, so the claim is recorded as open.
