Abstract

We prove global existence and optimal decay estimates for classical solutions with small initial data for nonlinear nonlocal Schrödinger equations. The Laplacian in the Schrödinger equation can be replaced by an operator corresponding to a non-degenerate quadratic form of arbitrary signature. In particular, the Davey-Stewartson system is included in the the class of equations we discuss.
