Abstract

We consider the energy-critical defocusing nonlinear wave equation (NLW) on Rd\mathbb{R}^d, d=4d=4 and 55. We prove almost sure global existence and uniqueness for NLW with rough random initial data in Hs(Rd)×Hs1(Rd)H^s(\mathbb{R}^d)\times H^{s-1}(\mathbb{R}^d), with 0<s10< s\leq 1 if d=4d=4, and 0s10\leq s\leq 1 if d=5d=5. The randomization we consider is naturally associated with the Wiener decomposition and with modulation spaces. The proof is based on a probabilistic perturbation theory. Under some additional assumptions, for d=4d=4, we also prove the probabilistic continuous dependence of the flow with respect to the initial data (in the sense proposed by Burq and Tzvetkov).
