Abstract: We develop the techniques of cite{KS1} and cite{ES1} in order to derive dispersive estimates for a matrix Hamiltonian equation defined by linearizing about a minimal mass soliton solution of a saturated, focussing nonlinear Schr"odinger equation {c} i u_t + Delta u + �eta (|u|^2) u = 0 u(0,x) = u_0 (x), in $eal{s}^3$. These results have been seen before, though we present a new approach using scattering theory techniques. In further works, we will numerically and analytically study the existence of a minimal mass soliton, as well as the spectral assumptions made in the analysis presented here.

Review text

Let \(\beta: \mathbb{R}_+\rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) be a function of the form \(\beta(s)=s^{p/2}(1+s^{\frac{p-q}{2}})^{-1}\), \(0<q<\frac{4}{3}\) and \(p\geq 2\). In this paper, a nonlinear Schrödinger equation \[ iu_t+\Delta u +\beta(|u|^2)u=0, u(0,x)=u_0(x) \] is considered in \(\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}^3\) for two types of saturated nonlinearities \(p>2+\frac{4}{3}\) and \(p=2\). The main result of the paper states that, if \(\beta\) satisfies some admissibility conditions, then the dispersive estimates hold true for a matrix Hamiltonian equation defined by linearizing about a minimal mass soliton solution of the above equation. Although estimates of this type were known before (see, for example, [\textit{W. Schlag}, ``Dispersive estimates for Schrödinger operators: a survey, preprint (2005), \url{arXiv:math/0501037}]), in this paper, the author presents a new approach using scattering theory techniques.
