Abstract: We obtain two results of propagation for solutions to the gravity-capillary water wave system. First we show how oscillations and the spatial decay propagate at infinity; then we show a microlocal smoothing effect under the non-trapping condition of the initial free surface. These results extends the works of Craig, Kappeler and Strauss, Wunsch and Nakamura to quasilinear dispersive equations. We also prove the existence of gravity-capillary water waves in weighted Sobolev spaces. Such solutions have asymptotically Euclidean free surfaces. To obtain these results, we generalize the paradifferential calculus of Bony to weighted Sobolev spaces and develop a semiclassical paradifferential calculus. We also introduce a new family of wavefront sets -- the quasi-homogeneous wavefront sets, which is a generalization, at least in the Euclidean geometry, the wavefront sets of H"{o}rmander, the scattering wavefront sets of Melrose, the quadratic scattering wavefront sets of Wunsch and the homogeneous wavefront sets of Nakamura.

Review text

Final aim of this paper is the study of propagation for the gravity-capillary water waves. To this end, the author considers first a linearization of the problem, and introduces some tools of microlocal analysis, allowing applications to the non-linear case. Namely, the basic linear model is a fractional Schrodinger equation, motivating the use of anisotropic pseudo-differential operators and related quasi-homogeneous global wave front sets, see \textit{L. Rodino} and \textit{P. Wahlberg} [Monatsh. Math. 202, No. 2, 397--434 (2023; Zbl 07738491)] for a detailed presentation. To prepare applications to non-linear equations, a quasi-homogeneous semiclassical para-differential calculus is then presented. Finally, existence of asymptotically flat gravity-capillary water waves is proved, cf. [\textit{T. Alazard} et al., Duke Math. J. 158, No. 3, 413--499 (2011; Zbl 1258.35043)] and two results are given, concerning propagation of oscillations and spatial decay at infinity, and microlocal smoothing effect. The presentation is very clear, with exhaustive bibliography. The paper combines deep techniques of microlocal analysis with relevant problems of Mathematical Physics.
