Abstract: We investigate

L^{1} (m a t h b b R^{n}) o L^{i} n f t y (m a t h b b R^{n})

dispersive estimates for the Schr"odinger operator

H = - D e l t a + V

when there is an eigenvalue at zero energy in even dimensions

n g e q 6

. In particular, we show that if there is an eigenvalue at zero energy then there is a time dependent, rank one operator

F_{t}

satisfying

| F_{t} |_{L^{1} o L^{i} n f t y} l e s s s i m | t |^{2 - f r a c n 2}

for

| t | > 1

such that

|e^{itH}P_{ac}-F_t|_{L^1 o L^infty} lesssim |t|^{1-frac{n}{2}},,,,,, ext{ for } |t|>1.

With stronger decay conditions on the potential it is possible to generate an operator-valued expansion for the evolution, taking the form �egin{align*} e^{itH} P_{ac}(H)=|t|^{2-frac{n}{2}}A_{-2}+ |t|^{1-frac{n}{2}} A_{-1}+|t|^{-frac{n}{2}}A_0, end{align*} with

A_{- 2}

and

A_{- 1}

mapping

L^{1} (m a t h b b R^{n})

to

L^{i} n f t y (m a t h b b R^{n})

while

A_{0}

maps weighted

L^{1}

spaces to weighted

L^{i} n f t y

spaces. The leading-order terms

A_{- 2}

and

A_{- 1}

are both finite rank, and vanish when certain orthogonality conditions between the potential

V

and the zero energy eigenfunctions are satisfied. We show that under the same orthogonality conditions, the remaining

| t |^{- f r a c n 2} A_{0}

term also exists as a map from

L^{1} (m a t h b b R^{n})

to

L^{i} n f t y (m a t h b b R^{n})

, hence

e^{i t H} P_{a c} (H)

satisfies the same dispersive bounds as the free evolution despite the eigenvalue at zero.
