(electric Schrödinger) (magnetic Schrödinger) (generalized magnetic Schrödinger) The fundamental solution Γ, LΓ(x, y) = δ x (y). Question. What is the sharp rate of exponential decay of Γ? Exponential decay of solutions to Schrödinger operators in presence of positive potentials: important in quantum physics. However, establishing a precise rate of decay for complicated potentials is a challenging open problem. (Landis conjecture) 6

8 Some history First exp. decay in terms of V : Agmon [Agm82], but not sharp. Shen in [She99]: Sharp exp. decay of + V. Polynomial decay also relevant to obtain L p boundedness of associated Riesz transforms: [She95], [She96]. Kurata [Kur00]: non-sharp exp. decay of L E, L M through heat kernel estimates. 7

9 Exponential decay: Main results For Γ the fundamental solution to div A + V, c 1 e ε1d(x,y,v ) x y n 2 Γ(x, y) c 2e ε2d(x,y,v ) x y n 2. (3) Only upper estimate for ( ia) 2 + V. L 2 estimate for ( ia) T A( ia) + V, and resolvents. 8

10 The Reverse Hölder class RH p We say that w L p loc (Rn ), with w > 0 a.e., belongs to the Reverse Hölder class RH p = RH p (R n ) if there exists a constant C so that for any ball B R n, ( ) 1/p w p C B w. (4) B 9

11 The Fefferman-Phong-Shen maximal function m(x, w) Denote and the magnetic field by B, so that D a = ia, B = curl a. (5) For a function w RH p, p n 2, define the maximal function m(x, w) by 1 m(x, w) and the Agmon distance { := sup r : r>0 d(x, y, w) = inf γ ˆ 1 0 ˆ 1 } r n 2 w 1, (6) B(x,r) m(γ(t), w) γ (t) dt, (7) where γ : [0, 1] R n is absolutely continuous and γ(0) = x, γ(1) = y. The Agmon distance characterizes a manifold sensitive to V. 10

12 m(x, w) and the uncertainty principle The function m measures the sum of the contributions of the kinetic energy ReAD a fd a f and potential energy V f 2, and is related to the uncertainty principle through the Fefferman-Phong inequality, its present form obtained by Z. Shen: Suppose that a L 2 loc (Rn ) n, and moreover assume (10) (next slide). Then, for all u Cc 1 (R n ), ˆ m 2 (x, V + B ) u 2 dx C R n ˆ ( D a u 2 + V u 2 ) dx. R n (8) 11

13 L 2 exponential decay Theorem 1 (Mayboroda-P. 2018) For L ( ia) T A( ia) + V and f L 2 c(r n ), constants d, ε, C > 0 such that ˆ 2εd(,supp f,v + B ) { } m (, V + B ) 2 L 1 f 2 e x R n d(x,supp f,v + B ) d ˆ C f 2 1 R m(x, V + B ) 2, (9) n provided i) either a = 0 and V RH n/2, ii) or, more generally, a L 2 loc (Rn ), V > 0 a.e. on R n, and V + B RH n/2, 0 V c m(, V + B ) 2, B c m(, V + B ) 3. (10) 12

14 L 2 exponential decay Theorem 1 (Mayboroda-P. 2018) For L ( ia) T A( ia) + V and f L 2 c(r n ), constants d, ε, C > 0 such that ˆ 2εd(,supp f,v + B ) { } m (, V + B ) 2 L 1 f 2 e x R n d(x,supp f,v + B ) d ˆ C f 2 1 R m(x, V + B ) 2, (9) n provided i) either a = 0 and V RH n/2, ii) or, more generally, a L 2 loc (Rn ), V > 0 a.e. on R n, and V + B RH n/2, 0 V c m(, V + B ) 2, B c m(, V + B ) 3. (10) 12

15 L 2 exponential decay for the resolvent An analogous estimate holds for the resolvent operator (I + t 2 L) 1, t > 0: ˆ ( ) 2 (I { } m, B t + t 2 L) 1 f 2 e x R n d(x,supp f,b t) d where B := V + B + 1 t 2. 2εd(,supp f,bt) ˆ ( ) 2. C f 2 m, B t R n In other words, L 1 f decays as e εd(,supp f,v + B ) away from the 1 εd(,supp f,v + B + support of f and the resolvent decays as e t 2 ). Previous resolvent decay results purely in terms of 1 t. 2 13

16 Upper bound exponential decay Theorem 2 (Mayboroda-P. 2018) If, in addition, solutions have pointwise (Moser) estimates, then Γ(x, y) Ce εd(x,y,v + B ) x y n 2 for all x, y R n. (11) In particular, applies to both electric Schrödinger div A + V, and magnetic Schrödinger ( ia) 2 + V. 14

17 Lower bound exponential decay Theorem 3 (Mayboroda-P. 2018) If, furthermore, an m scale invariant Harnack inequality holds, then Γ(x, y) ce ε2d(x,y,v + B ) x y n 2. (12) If Γ E is the fundamental solution to electric Schrödinger diva + V : c 1 e ε1d(x,y,v ) x y n 2 Γ E (x, y) c 2e ε2d(x,y,v ) x y n 2. (13) 15

18 Properties of the magnetic Schrödinger operator Magnetic Schrödinger exhibits gauge invariance: quantitative assumptions should be put on B rather than a. The diamagnetic inequality u (x) D a u(x). (14) When A I so that L M := L = ( ia) 2 + V, L M is dominated by L E := + V : for each ε > 0, (L M + ε) 1 f ( + ε) 1 f, for each f L 2 (R n ). (15) The above is known as the Kato-Simon inequality. 16

19 About L 2 decay L 2 Germinet and Klein [GK03]: resolvent exp. decay purely in terms of 1 t 2. Also Combes-Thomas estimates. The estimate (9) (for the operator L 1 ) is entirely new and is a consequence of the decay afforded by our assumptions on V and B. Resolvent estimate = estimate on f(l) for any holomorphic f. Our results are in the nature of best possible. 17

20 Some challenges Existence of fundamental solution. Some authors (B. Ben Ali [Ben10], Kurata and Sugano [KS00]) took ad-hoc assumptions on a, V. We prove existence of a fund. solution in the natural context, by a smooth approximation technique. A variable, non self-adjoint. When A is not self-adjoint: difficulty in dealing with the non-symmetric part. Dealing with complex coefficients, possible lack of Harnack or even of Moser. 18

21 Open problems For eigenfunctions, the decay is governed by the uncertainty principle - see Arnold, David, Filoche, Jerison and Mayboroda Localization of eigenfunctions via an effective potential [ADFJM]. Obtain exponential decay in terms of the landscape potential 1/u, Lu = 1. Use sharper uncertainty principle of [ADFJM]. Solve boundary value problems, Neumann problem in particular. 19

22 V is small Let us turn our attention to the general second-order elliptic operators, and describe some history. 20

23 The general second-order elliptic operator Let N N, N 2, and Ω R N open. Write L = div(a + b 1 ) + b 2 + V. (16) Here, A is an N N matrix satisfying λ > 0, Λ <, ξ C N, x Ω, λ ξ 2 Re A(x)ξ, ξ and A L (Ω) Λ. The terms b 1, b 2 are called drift terms, while V is called the potential. In particular, electric and magnetic Schrödinger. 21

24 Non-tangential maximal operators In this generality, Lipschitz domain half-space. Given q R n, write the non-tangential approach region { Γ(q) := (x, t) R n+1 + : x q < t}. (17) If u L loc (Rn+1 + ), write If u L 2 loc (Rn+1 + ), write N u(q) := Ñ u(q) := sup u(x, t). (18) (x,t) Γ(q) ( sup u 2) 1 2. (19) (x,t) Γ(q) x y <t t s < t 2 We use the notation u f non-tangentially (or u f n.t.) to mean that for almost every q R n, we have lim u(x) = f(q). (20) Γ(q) x q 22

25 The Dirichlet problem (D p ) The Dirichlet problem with data f in L p, p (1, ) is div(a u + b 1 u) + b 2 u + V u = 0 in R n+1 u f non-tangentially, N u Lp (R n ) f Lp (R n ). +, 23

26 The Neumann problem (N p ) and Regularity problem (R p ) div(a u + b 1 u) + b 2 u + V u = 0 in R n+1 u Neumann (N p ) : ν = g Lp (R n ), Ñ ( u) Lp (R n ) g Lp (R n ). +, div(a u + b 1 u) + b 2 u + V u = 0 in R n+1 Regularity (R p ) : u f n.t., Ñ ( u) L p (R n ) f L p (R n ). +, 24

27 BVPs: Early results L = on Lipschitz Ω: Dalhberg [Dah77] solved (D 2 ). Jerison and Kenig [JK81b] (N 2 ), (R 2 ). Verchota [Ver84] layer potentials. L = div A, how general can A be? Caffarelli, Fabes and Kenig [CFK81]: some regularity in transverse direction is necessary for (D 2 ). Thus it is natural to consider t independent A. 25

28 BVPs: t independent A A real, symmetric: Jerison and Kenig [JK81a] (D 2 ), Kenig and Pipher [KP93] (N 2 ), (R 2 ). A real, non-symmetric: Kenig, Koch, Pipher and Toro [KKPT00], Kenig and Rule [KR09], Barton [Bar13], Hofmann, Kenig, Mayboroda and Pipher [HKMP15a]-[HKMP15b]. A complex block: (N 2 ), (R 2 ) equivalent to solving a Kato square root problem. Full solution in [AHLMT02] Auscher, Hofmann, Lacey, McIntosh, Tchamitchian. 26

29 BVPs: Perturbation results L perturbations of t independent A: Fabes, Jerison and Kenig [FJK84], Alfonseca, Auscher, Axelsson, Hofmann and Kim [AAAHK11], Auscher, Axelsson and Hofmann [AAH08], Auscher, Axelsson and McIntosh [AAM10]... Carleson-norm perturbations: Fefferman, Kenig and Pipher [FKP91], Kenig and Pipher [KP93]-[KP95], Auscher and Axelsson [AA11], Hofmann, Mayboroda and Mourgoglou [HMM15]... Perturbation results for t independent matrices Perturbation results under small Carleson-norm assumption 27

30 BVPs: With lower order terms Very little is known. Three results: Kenig and Pipher [KP01], Dindos, Petermichl and Pipher [DPP07]: b 1 V 0 and some regularity on b 2 = (D p ). Used results of Hofmann and Lewis [HL01] Shen [She94]: A I, b 1 b 2 0, V RH = (N p ), (R p ). More recently: The Ph.D thesis [Sak17] of G. Sakellaris. Solve (D 2 ), (R 2 ) for L = diva + b 2 and its adjoint, A Lipschitz, Ω bounded Lipschitz, b 2 essentially bounded and integrability condition on div b 2. 28

31 A perturbation result through layer potentials Theorem 4 (Bortz-Hofmann-Luna García-Mayboroda-P. 2018) Let Ω = R n+1 +, n 3. Suppose that A is a t independent, complex, elliptic, bounded matrix, the coefficients b 1, b 2, V are t independent, and { } max b 1 L n (R n ), b 2 L n (R n ), V n L 2 (Rn ε ) 0 1. If (D 2 ) s, (N 2 ) s, (R 2 ) s are well-posed for L 0 := div A and its adjoint L 0, then the problems (D 2 ) s, (N 2 ) s, (R 2 ) s have solutions for L, where div(a u + b 1 u) + b 2 u + V u in R n+1 +, (D 2 ) s : u(, t) f strongly in L 2 (R n ) as t 0, sup t>0 u(, t) L 2 (R n ) f L 2 (R n ). (N 2 ) s : div(a u + b 1 u) + b 2 u + V u in R n+1 u ν = g L2 (R n ), sup t>0 u(, t) L2 (R n ) g L 2 (R n ). +, 29

32 A perturbation result through layer potentials Theorem 4 (Bortz-Hofmann-Luna García-Mayboroda-P. 2018) Let Ω = R n+1 +, n 3. Suppose that A is a t independent, complex, elliptic, bounded matrix, the coefficients b 1, b 2, V are t independent, and { } max b 1 L n (R n ), b 2 L n (R n ), V n L 2 (R ε n ) 0 1. (21) If (D 2 ) s, (N 2 ) s, (R 2 ) s are well-posed for L 0 := div A and its adjoint L 0, then the problems (D 2 ) s, (N 2 ) s, (R 2 ) s have solutions for L. Gesztesy, Hofmann and Nichols [GHN16]: Solution to a Kato problem for operators with lower order terms. Hypotheses hold for A real and symmetric, in particular. L p spaces in (21) are scale-invariant with respect to the second-order term diva. 30

33 Some main obstacles: no essential boundedness Our first strategy was to use the methods by Alfonseca, Auscher, Axelsson, Hofmann and Kim [AAAHK11]. But [AAAHK11] relies heavily on DeGiorgi-Nash-Moser bounds, which guarantee good decay properties of the fundamental solution Γ. In our setting, the DeGNM bounds do not hold, and neither do good decay properties of the fundamental solution, if it even exists. In [AAAHK11], they obtain the non-tangential maximal function control through a Cotlar-type argument using the fine properties of t Γ. This argument is not available to us. 31

34 On the failure of the DeGNM theory at the critical L p spaces for b 1, V The DeGiorgi-Nash-Moser theory gives Hölder-regularity for positive solutions to ( + V )u = 0 when V L n 2 +ε, for ε > 0. What happens when L + V, V L n 2 (R n )? Lemma 5 Let n 3, B a ball, and V L n 2 (R n ) with arbitrarily small norm. There exists u W 1,2 loc (B) a local weak solution to Lu = 0 on B, such that u > 0, u / L loc (B). Kim and Sakellaris [KS]: shown similar result. 32

35 On the failure of the DeGNM theory at the critical L p spaces for b 1, V The DeGiorgi-Nash-Moser theory gives Hölder-regularity for positive solutions to ( + V )u = 0 when V L n 2 +ε, for ε > 0. What happens when L + V, V L n 2 (R n )? Lemma 5 Let n 3, B a ball, and V L n 2 (R n ) with arbitrarily small norm. There exists u W 1,2 loc (B) a local weak solution to Lu = 0 on B, such that u > 0, u / L loc (B). Kim and Sakellaris [KS]: shown similar result. 32

36 Some main obstacles: constants are not solutions If L 0 div A and u solves L 0 u = 0 on Ω, then for any c C, u c also solves L 0 u = 0 on Ω. The above property does not hold for the operators with non-zero terms b 1, V. Linked to the failure of the DeGNM bounds. 33

37 Some definitions Denote 2 = 2(n+1) n 1 Y 1,2 (R n+1 + ) =, define the space { u L 2 (R n+1 + ) u L 2 (R n+1 + ) Following A. Barton [Bar17], define the single-layer potential, S L : (H (R n )) Y 1,2 (R n+1 ), by ( S L := Tr 0 (L 1 ) ). (22) The above definition coincides with the classical single-layer potential for the operator : ˆ S L f(x, t) = Γ(x, t, y, 0)f(y) dy, (x, t) R n+1. R n The square function S : ( S u = u := R n dx dt u(x, t) t ) 1 2. }, 34

38 Some definitions Denote 2 = 2(n+1) n 1 Y 1,2 (R n+1 + ) =, define the space { u L 2 (R n+1 + ) u L 2 (R n+1 + ) Following A. Barton [Bar17], define the single-layer potential, S L : (H (R n )) Y 1,2 (R n+1 ), by ( S L := Tr 0 (L 1 ) ). (22) The above definition coincides with the classical single-layer potential for the operator : ˆ S L f(x, t) = Γ(x, t, y, 0)f(y) dy, (x, t) R n+1. R n The square function S : ( S u = u := R n dx dt u(x, t) t ) 1 2. }, 34

39 The Neumann problem As a main step towards solvability of (N 2 ) s, we want to show the estimate sup S L f(, t) L 2 (R n ) f L 2 (R n ). (23) t>0 This is the sup-on-slices estimate. To obtain it, we want to show the following estimates, which together imply it. Tr < S : S L f(, t) L2 (R n ) t 2 2 t S L f + t 2 t S L f, The square function estimates: for each m 1, t m t m+1 S L f f L 2 (R n ). 35

40 The Neumann problem As a main step towards solvability of (N 2 ) s, we want to show the estimate sup S L f(, t) L 2 (R n ) f L 2 (R n ). (23) t>0 This is the sup-on-slices estimate. To obtain it, we want to show the following estimates, which together imply it. Tr < S : S L f(, t) L2 (R n ) t 2 2 t S L f + t 2 t S L f, The square function estimates: for each m 1, t m t m+1 S L f f L 2 (R n ). 35

41 The square function estimate Apply a vector-valued T b theorem (see Grau de la Herrán and Hofmann [GH16]). {Θ t } vector-valued family, has uniform L 2 bounds, off-diagonal decay in L 2, and quasi-orthogonality on a subspace H of L 2. {b Q } family of matrix-valued functions with components in H, indexed in dyadic cubes Q, satisfying ˆ R n b Q (x) 2 dx C 0 Q, ˆ l(q) 0 ˆ Q ( δ ξ 2 Re ξ Θ t b Q (x) 2 dx dt t C 0 Q, ) b Q dxξ, ξ C m. Q Then [GH16] Θ t f f L 2 (R n ), f H. 36

42 Tr< S S L f(, t) L 2 (R n ) t 2 2 t S L f + t 2 t S L f. Use integration by parts, Green s formula, adjoint relations of the layer potentials, and the square function estimates. If u Y 1,2 (R n+1 + ) solves Lu = 0 in R n+1 +, then Green s formula: u = D L,+ (Tr 0 u) + S L ( ν L,+ u) in R n+1 +. ( The double layer potential: D L,+ t = L,+ ν, t S L ), t > 0 t t S L h h 2, for all h Cc (R n ) n+1. 37

43 Endgame From the sup-on-slices estimate and the square function estimate, as well as the well-posedness of (N 2 ) for L 0 = diva and its adjoint, we can deduce invertibility of S L and associated operators through the jump relations, allowing us to conclude solvability of the Neumann problem for L = div(a + b 1 ) + b 2 + V. We may similarly deduce solvability of the Dirichlet and Regularity problems (D 2 ) s, (R 2 ) s. 38
