Abstract

We study the nonlinear Schrödinger equations {i∂tu + 1/2 Δu = F(u, ∇u, ū, ∇ū), (t, x) ∈ R × Rn u(0, x) = ∈0φ, x ∈ Rn. (*) When n = 3, 4, F : C2n+2 → C is quadratic and ∈0 is sufficiently small, it is shown that small analytic solutions of (*) exist globally in time under the condition |∂uF| + |∂ūF| ≤ C|∇u|. Furthermore we give a global existence theorem when n = 2 and F = λ(∂1u∂2ū - ∂1ū∂2u). We notice that we do not need the condition ∂∂juF is pure imaginary which ensures the use of classical energy estimates.
