This analysis explores Schrödinger equations under singular potentials in black hole geometries, implying unique solutions in specified neighborhoods.
We consider a linear Schr\"odinger operator H = -Δ + V with a strongly singular potential V not bounded from below on a non-compact incomplete Riemannian manifold M. We assume that the negative part of potential V₋ is measurable, and it does not necessarily belong to either local Kato or Stummel classes, and we define new geometric conditions on the growth of V₋ in a special range control neighborhood (RCN) such that H is semibounded from below on functions compactly supported in these neighborhoods. We define RCN by means of an inner time metric which estimates the minimal time for a classical particle to travel between any two points on M, and we assume that M is complete w.r.t. this metric, i.e. the potential V is classically complete on M. For the corresponding Cauchy problem of the wave equation uₜₜ + Hu = 0, we define locally a Lorentzian metric such that its light cone is formed along the minimizing curves with respect to the inner time metric, where both an energy inequality and uniqueness of solutions hold. Inversely, for well-known Lorentzian metrics of static black holes - Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstr\"om, and de Sitter metrics - we study the wave equations for the corresponding Schr\"odinger operators, and we show that the event horizons of these black holes belong to the RCNs of infinity w.r.t. the inner time metrics, and that all solutions of the mixed problems stay in these neighborhoods indefinitely long.
