A Nonlinear Plancherel Theorem with Applications to Global Well-Posedness for the Defocusing Davey-Stewartson Equation and to the Inverse Boundary Value Problem of Calderón

We prove a Plancherel theorem for a nonlinear Fourier transform in two dimensions arising in the Inverse Scattering method for the defocusing Davey-Stewartson II equation. We then use it to prove global well-posedness and scattering in $L^2$ for defocusing DSII. This Plancherel theorem also implies global uniqueness in the inverse boundary value problem of Calder\'on in dimension $2$, for conductivities \sigma>0 with $\log \sigma \in \dot H^1$. The proof of the nonlinear Plancherel theorem includes new estimates on classical fractional integrals, as well as a new result on $L^2$-boundedness of pseudo-differential operators with non-smooth symbols, valid in all dimensions

Strichartz estimates on Schwarzschild black hole backgrounds

We study dispersive properties for the wave equation in the Schwarzschild space-time. The first result we obtain is a local energy estimate. This is then used, following the spirit of earlier work of Metcalfe-Tataru, in order to establish global-in-time Strichartz estimates. A considerable part of the paper is devoted to a precise analysis of solutions near the trapping region, namely the photon sphere.Comment: 44 pages; typos fixed, minor modifications in several place
