Abstract

We continue here with previous investigations on the global behavior of general type nonlinear wave equations for a class of small, scale-invariant initial data. In particular, we show that the (4 + 1) dimensional Yang-Mills equations are globally well posed with asymptotically free behavior for a wide class of initial data sets which include general charges. The method here is based on the use of a new set of Strichartz estimates for the linear wave equation which incorporates extra weighted smoothness assumptions with respect to the angular variable, along with the construction of appropriate micro-local function spaces which take into account this type of additional regularity.
