Modified scattering for small data solutions to the cubic Schrödinger equation on product space

Abstract

In this paper we consider the long time behavior of solutions to the cubic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation posed on the spatial domain $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{T}^{d}$, $1\leq d\leq4$. We first prove the local well-posedness in $C(I;L_x^2H_y^s)\cap C(I;L_{x,y}^4)$ for solutions with initial data $u_0\in H^{0,1}_xL_y^2\cap L_x^2H_y^s$. Then, for sufficiently small, smooth, decaying data, we prove global existence and derive modified asymptotic dynamics by using the wave packet method and normal form corrections. The modified scattering behavior on $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{T}^d$ combines the modified scattering of the cubic NLS on real line $\mathbb{R}$ with cubic NLS dynamics on torus. We also consider the corresponding asymptotic completeness problem.
