In this paper we obtain some new Strichartz estimates for the wave propagator $e^{it\sqrt{-\Delta}}$ in the context of Wiener amalgam spaces. While it is well understood for the Schr\"odinger case, nothing is known about the wave…

The Schr\"odinger's wave function can naturally be realized as an 'instantaneous resonant spatial mode' in which quantum particle moves and hence the Born's rule is derived after identifying its origin. This realization facilitates the…
