1. Introduction and Notation

In this paper, we introduce a new space (denoted by ) by combining frequency-uniform decomposition with . In this new space, we discuss the semilinear estimates, Schwartz estimates, embedding properties between and Triebel-Lizorkin space , and so forth. Moreover, we study the well-posedness of NLS equations and Ginzburg-Landau equations in .

In recent decades, the well-posedness of Schrödinger equations and Ginzburg-Landau equations is developed quickly. In this paper, we mainly study the local Cauchy problem of NLS equations and Ginzburg-Landau equations in this new space . Many people have studied these problems in Bessel potential and Besov spaces, for example, see [19], and so forth. We know that Besov spaces and Triebel spaces are generated by combining Littlewood-Paley decomposition with and (one can refer to [10] for the properties of Besov and Triebel spaces.). Next, we give a brief introduction of these spaces (see [10, 11]).

To define the Littlewood-Paley decomposition, it is convenient to consider a radial function such that and to define the sequence by Since , we can easily see that , , and . Define where is the Fourier transform and is the inverse Fourier transform. is said to be Littlewood-Paley decomposition operator. Formally, we see that We now define the Besov space for and by and Triebel space for and , by

Besov and Triebel spaces had been formulated during 1960s–1980s, which have been widely applied in recent years. Besov spaces and Triebel spaces are introduced by combining Littlewood-Paly decomposition operator with the function spaces and . Similar to Besov spaces and Triebel spaces, one can use frequency-uniform decomposition and , to generate a new class of function spaces. Actually, the spaces introduced by frequency-uniform decomposition and are modulation spaces. Many people have studied the well-posedness of evolution equations in these spaces (e.g., see [1216], etc.). In this paper, we will consider the spaces generated by the frequency-uniform decomposition and . Firstly, we will recall the definition of the frequency-uniform decomposition and modulation spaces. In the 1930s, Wiener [17] first introduced the frequency-uniform decomposition. So, sometimes we call it Wiener decomposition of that is roughly denoted by where denotes the characteristic function on the set . Since is a translation of , have the same localized structures in frequency space, which are said to be the frequency-uniform decomposition operators. Since can not make differential operations, one needs to redefine it by smooth truncation function (see [12, 14, 18, 19]).

Now we give an exact definition on modulation spaces. We first denote . Let be a smooth radial bump function adapted to with if and if . Let be a translation of : Since in the unit closed cube and is a covering of , one has that for all , . Then, we write It is easy to see that Hence, the set is nonvoid. Let be a function sequence. Denote which is said to be the frequency-uniform decomposition operator. For any , we set , . For any , , we denote is said to be a modulation space, which was first introduced by Feichtinger [19] in the case (Appendix Theorem E shows the properties on ). For any , , we denote was first introduced by Baoxiang et al. [12].

We now introduce a new class of function spaces (denoted by ) by combining the frequency-uniform decomposition with . For any , , , we denote Moreover, we denote

By Appendix Theorem B, it is also a Cauchy sequence in . This shows that the limiting element of in (which is the same as in ) coincides with . Now it follows by standard arguments that belongs to and that converges in to . Hence, is complete.
