Abstract We study the scattering problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation $i\partial _t u + \Delta u = |u|^p u$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$, with a mass-subcritical nonlinearity above the Strauss exponent. For this equation, it is known that asymptotic completeness in $L^2$ with initial data in $\Sigma$ holds and the wave operator is well defined on $\Sigma$. We show that there exists $0<\beta <p$ such that the wave operator and the data-to-scattering-state map do not admit extensions to maps $L^2\to L^2$ of class $C^{1+\beta }$ near the origin. This constitutes a mild form of ill-posedness for the scattering problem in the $L^2$ topology.

AbstractWe consider the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the whole space. After introducing a weaker concept of finite speed of propagation, we show that the concatenation of initial data gives rise to solutions whose time of existence increases as one translates one of the initial data. Moreover, we show that, given global decaying solutions with initial data u0, v0, if |y| is large, then the concatenated initial data u0 + v0(· − y) gives rise to globally decaying solutions.
