New bilinear estimates for quadratic-derivative nonlinear wave equations in 2+1 dimensions

This thesis is concerned with the Cauchy problem for the quadratic derivative nonlinear wave equation in two spatial dimensions. Using standard techniques, we reduce local well-posedness in Fourier Lebesgue spaces to bilinear estimates in associated wave Fourier Lebesgue spaces, for which we prove n...
