On the Schr\"odinger equation with potential in modulation spaces

Abstract

This work deals with Schr\"odinger equations with quadratic and sub-quadratic Hamiltonians perturbed by a potential. In particular we shall focus on bounded, but not necessarily smooth perturbations. We shall give a representation of such evolution as the composition of a metaplectic operator and a pseudodifferential operator having symbol in certain classes of modulation spaces. About propagation of singularities, we use a new notion of wave front set, which allows the expression of optimal results of propagation in our context. To support this claim, many comparisons with the existing literature are performed in this work.Comment: 25 page
