Global well-posedness and scattering for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation with small rough data

Abstract

We study the Cauchy problem for the generalized elliptical and non-elliptical derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations (DNLS) and get the global well posedness of solutions with small data in modulation spaces M2,1s(Rn). Noticing that B2,1s+n/2⊂M2,1s⊂B2,1s are optimal inclusions, we have shown the global well posedness of DNLS with a class of rough data. As a by-product, the existence of the scattering operators in modulation spaces with small data is also obtained.
