The IVP for a higher dimensional version of the Benjamin-Ono equation in weighted Sobolev spaces

We study the initial value problem associated to a higher dimensional version of the Benjamin-Ono equation. Our purpose is to establish local well-posedness results in weighted Sobolev spaces and to determinate according to them some sharp unique continuation properties of the solution flow. In consequence, optimal decay rate for this model is determined. A key ingredient is the deduction of a new commutator estimate involving Riesz transforms.
