In this note I describe some recent work, done jointly with Gustav Ponce and Luis Vega, on nonlinear Schrödinger equations of the form \[ i{\partial u\over\partial t}+ \Delta u+F(u,\overline u,\nabla_xu,\nabla_x\overline u)=0,\quad u(x,0)=u_0(x), \] where \(x\in \mathbb{R}^n\), \(t\in [0,T]\). Here \(F:\mathbb{C}^{2n+2} \to\mathbb{C}\) is a polynomial having no constant or linear terms. We are interested in establishing local well posedness results, and global well posedness results, with data in Sobolev spaces.
