Well-posedness for the Zakharov system with the periodic boundary condition (Q1854098)

The paper deals with the one-dimensional Zakharov system \[ i u_t + \alpha u_{xx} = u n,\qquad \beta ^{-2} n_{tt}- n_{xx} = (|u|^2)_{xx} \] (\(\alpha \in {\mathbb R}-\{0\}\), \(\beta \in {\mathbb R}^+\)) for complex-valued functions \(u(x,t),n(x,t)\) periodic in \(x\), \(t\in (-T,T)\) with initial conditions for \(u,n,n_t\) at \(t=0\). In the paper, under the nonresonance condition \(\beta /\alpha \notin {\mathbb Z}\) local well-posedness is proved. The proof is based on the Fourier restriction norm method developed by J. Bourgain and C. E. Kenig, G. Ponce and L. Vega.
