Abstract

We prove a resolvent estimate for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a scattering manifold with a hyperbolic trapped set, and as a corollary deduce local smoothing. We use a result of Nonnenmacher-Zworski to provide an estimate near the trapped region, a result of Burq and Cardoso-Vodev to provide an estimate near infinity, and the microlocal calculus on scattering manifolds to combine the two.
