We construct a potential $V$ on $\RR^d$, smooth away from one pole, and a sequence of quasi-modes for the operator $-\Delta+V$, which concentrate on this pole. No smoothing effect, Strichartz estimates nor dispersive inequalities hold for…
For any central potential V in D dimensions, the angular Schroedinger equation remains the same and defines the so called hyperspherical harmonics. For non-central models, the situation is more complicated. We contemplate two examples in…
