Scattering for the critical 2-D NLS with exponential growth

In this article, we establish in the radial framework the $H^1$-scattering for the critical 2-D nonlinear Schrödinger equation with exponential growth. Our strategy relies on both the a priori estimate derived in \cite{CGT, PV} and the characterization of the lack of compactness of the Sobolev embedding of $H_{rad}^1(\R^2)$ into the critical Orlicz space ${\cL}(\R^2)$ settled in \cite{BMM}. The radial setting, and particularly the fact that we deal with bounded functions far away from the origin, occurs in a crucial way in our approach.
