Ill-posedness of quintic fourth order Schrödinger equation

We prove that the solution map, associated to the quintic fourth order nonlinear Schrödinger equation, exhibits the norm inflation phenomenon at every point in the Sobolev spaces of super-critical regularity. Indeed, we prove this result separately in the cases of negative and of positive regularity. In the negative regularity case, we prove the result for both the defocusing and focusing equations: in the one dimensional case, the associated solution map exhibits norm inflation in Sobolev spaces of super-critical regularity (including the critical index); in the higher dimensional case, the solution map exhibits the same phenomenon in spaces of negative regularity. Meanwhile, in the case of positive regularity, we prove the result for the defocusing equation in dimensions $d=3,4,5$. Our proofs are based on the "high-to-low" and "low-to-high" frequency cascades respectively.
