Stephen Montgomery-Smith, Time decay for the bounded mean oscillation of solutions of the Schrödinger and wave equations.
Duke Math J. 91 (1998), 393-408.
Let \(u(x,t)\) be the solution of the Schrödinger or wave equation with \(L_2\) initial data. We provide counterexamples to plausible conjectures involving the decay in \(t\) of the BMO norm of \(u(t,\cdot)\). The proofs make use of random methods, in particular, Brownian motion.
