Some Lower Bounds for Solutions of Schrödinger Evolutions
Authors: Agirre, Mikel,Vega, Luis
We present some lower bounds for regular solutions of Schr��dinger equations with bounded and time dependent complex potentials. Assuming that the solution has some positive mass at time zero within a ball of certain radius, we prove that this mass can be observed if one looks at the solution and…
