Abstract: We consider solutions of the scalar wave equation Boxgphi=0, without symmetry, on fixed subextremal Reissner-Nordstr"om backgrounds (mathcalM,g) with nonvanishing charge. Previously, it has been shown that for phi arising from sufficiently regular data on a two ended Cauchy hypersurface, the solution and its derivatives decay suitably fast on the event horizon mathcalH+. Using this, we show here that phi is in fact uniformly bounded, |phi|leqC, in the black hole interior up to and including the bifurcate Cauchy horizon mathcalCmathcalH+, to which phi in fact extends continuously. The proof depends on novel weighted energy estimates in the black hole interior which, in combination with commutation by angular momentum operators and application of Sobolev embedding, yield uniform pointwise estimates. In a forthcoming companion paper we will extend the result to subextremal Kerr backgrounds with nonvanishing rotation.
