Abstract
We consider the Cauchy problem for the one dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation \(iu_t+u_{xx}-|u|^2u=0\). As the first step local well-posedness in the modulation space \(M_{2,p}\) (\(2\le p<\infty \)) is derived (see Theorem 1.4), which covers all the subcritical cases. Afterwards in order to approach the endpoint case, we will prove the almost global well-posedness in some Orlicz type space (see Theorem 1.8), which is a natural generalization of \(M_{2,p}\), and is almost critical from the viewpoint of scaling. The new ingredient is an endpoint version of the two dimensional restriction estimate (see Lemma 3.7).
