## On Fractional Schrödinger Equations in sobolev spaces

 1 University of Texas at Austin, United States 2 Université Aix-Marseille, I2M, France

Received  December 2014 Revised  June 2015 Published  September 2015

Let $\sigma \in (0,1)$ with $\sigma \neq \frac{1}{2}$. We investigate the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $\mathbb R^d$: \begin{eqnarray} i\partial_tu+(-\Delta)^\sigma u+\mu|u|^{p-1}u=0, u(0)=u_0\in H^s, \end{eqnarray} where $(-\Delta)^\sigma$ is the Fourier multiplier of symbol $|\xi|^{2\sigma}$, and $\mu=\pm 1$. This model has been introduced by Laskin in quantum physics [23]. We establish local well-posedness and ill-posedness in Sobolev spaces for power-type nonlinearities.
