Sobolev-Lorentz spaces with an application to the inhomogeneous biharmonic NLS equation

We consider the Cauchy problem for the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schrödinger (IBNLS) equation $iu_{t} +Δ^{2} u=λ|x|^{-b}|u|^σu,\;u(0)=u_{0} \in H^{s} (\mathbb R^{d}),$ where $λ\in \mathbb R$, $d\in \mathbb N$, $0\le s<\min\left\{2+\frac{d}{2},d\right\}$, $0<b<\min \left\{4,\; d-s,\; 2+\frac{d}{2}-s \right\}$ and $0<σ\le σ_{c}(s)$ with $σ<\infty$. Here $σ_{c}(s)=\frac{8-2b}{d-2s}$ if $s<\frac{d}{2}$, and $σ_{c}(s)=\infty$ if $s\ge \frac{d}{2}$. First, we give some remarks on Sobolev-Lorentz spaces and extend the chain rule under Lorentz norms for the fractional Laplacian $(-Δ)^{s/2}$ with $s\in (0,1]$ established by [Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. 41 (2021) 5409-5437] to any $s>0$. Applying this estimate and the contraction mapping principle based on Strichartz estimates in Lorentz spaces, we then establish the local well-posedness in $H^{s}$ for the IBNLS equation in both of subcritical case $σ<σ_{c}(s)$ and critical case $σ=σ_{c}(s)$. We also prove that the IBNLS equation is globally well-posed in $H^{s}$, if the initial data is sufficiently small and $\frac{8-2b}{d}\le σ\le σ_{c}(s)$ with $σ<\infty$.
