Abstract

The dispersive properties of the wave equation u tt +Au=0 are considered, where A is either the Hermite operator −Δ+|x|2 or the twisted Laplacian −( x iy)2/2−( y +ix)2/2. In both cases we prove optimal L 1L dispersive estimates. More generally, we give some partial results concerning the flows exp (itL ν) associated to fractional powers of the twisted Laplacian for 0<ν<1.
