Strichartz estimates for water waves

Abstract

In this paper we investigate the dispersive properties of the solutions of the two dimensional water-waves system with surface tension. First we prove Strichartz type estimates with loss of derivatives at the same low level of regularity we were able to construct the solutions in [2]. On the other hand, for smoother initial data, we prove that the solutions enjoy the optimal Strichartz estimates (i.e, without loss of regularity compared to the system linearized at (η = 0, Ψ = 0)). © 2011 Société Mathématique de France.
