Some remarks on the Schr\"odinger equation with a potential in L^(r)_(t)L^(s)_(x)

We study the dispersive properties of the linear Schr\"odinger equation with a time-dependent potential $V(t,x)$. We show that an appropriate integrability condition in space and time on $V$, i.e. the boundedness of a suitable $L^{r}_{t}L^{s}_{x}$ norm, is sufficient to prove the full set of Strichartz estimates. We also construct several counterexamples which show that our assumptions are optimal, both for local and for global Strichartz estimates, in the class of large unsigned potentials $V\in L^{r}_tL^{s}_x$.
