dc.descriptionIn recent work, we have proven uniform decay bounds for solutions of the wave equation $\Box_gϕ=0$ on a Schwarzschild exterior, in particular, the uniform pointwise estimate $|ϕ|\le Cv_+^{-1}$, which holds throughout the domain of outer communications, where $v$ is an advanced Eddington-Finkelstein coordinate, $v_+=\max\{v,1\}$, and $C$ is a constant depending on a Sobolev norm of initial data. A crucial estimate in the proof required a decomposition into spherical harmonics. We here give an alternative proof of this estimate not requiring such a decomposition.
