Instability of the solitary waves for the generalized derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in the degenerate case
Abstract
In this paper, we develop the modulation analysis, the perturbation argument and the Virial identity similar as those in \cite{MartelM:Instab:gKdV} to show the orbital instability of the solitary waves $\Q\sts{x-ct}\e^{\i\omega t}$ of the generalized derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (gDNLS) in the degenerate case $c=2z_0\sqrt{\omega}$, where $z_0=z_0\sts{\sigma} $ is the unique zero point of $F\sts{z;~\sigma}$ in $\sts{-1, ~ 1}$. The new ingredients in the proof are the refined modulation decomposition of the solution near $\Q$ according to the spectrum property of the linearized operator $\Scal_{\omega, c}"\sts{\Q}$ and the refined construction of the Virial identity in the degenerate case. Our argument is qualitative, and we improve the result in \cite{Fukaya2017}.
