On global attraction to quantum stationary states. Dirac equation with mean field interaction

We consider a U(1)-invariant nonlinear Dirac equation in dimension $n=3$, interacting with itself via the mean field mechanism. We analyze the long-time asymptotics of solutions and prove that, under certain generic assumptions, each finite charge solution converges as $t\to\pm\infty$ to the two-dimensional set of all "nonlinear eigenfunctions" of the form $ϕ(x)e\sp{-iωt}$. This global attraction is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation. The research is inspired by Bohr's postulate on quantum transitions and Schrödinger's identification of the quantum stationary states to the nonlinear eigenfunctions of the coupled U(1)-invariant Maxwell-Schrödinger and Maxwell-Dirac equations.

Global attraction to solitary waves for Klein-Gordon equation with mean field interaction

We consider a U(1)-invariant nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation in dimension one or larger, self-interacting via the mean field mechanism. We analyze the long-time asymptotics of finite energy solutions and prove that, under certain generic assumptions, each solution converges (as time goes to infinity) to the two-dimensional set of all ``nonlinear eigenfunctions'' of the form $ϕ(x)e\sp{-iωt}$. This global attraction is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation.

Global Attraction to Solitary Waves in Models Based on the Klein-Gordon Equation

We review recent results on global attractors of U(1)-invariant dispersive Hamiltonian systems. We study several models based on the Klein-Gordon equation and sketch the proof that in these models, under certain generic assumptions, the weak global attractor is represented by the set of all solitary waves. In general, the attractors may also contain multifrequency solitary waves; we give examples of systems which contain such solutions.

On global attraction to solitary waves for the Klein-Gordon field coupled to several nonlinear oscillators

The global attraction is established for all finite energy solutions to a model $\mathbf{U}(1)$-invariant nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation in one dimension coupled to a finite number of nonlinear oscillators: We prove that {\it each finite energy solution} converges as $t\to\pm\infty$ to the set of all ``nonlinear eigenfunctions'' of the form $ϕ(x)e\sp{-iωt}$ if all oscillators are strictly nonlinear, and the distances between all neighboring oscillators are sufficiently small. The {\it global attraction} is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation. This result for one oscillator was obtained in [KK07]. We construct counterexamples showing that the convergence to the solitary waves may break down if the distance between some of the neighboring oscillators is sufficiently large or if some of the oscillators are harmonic. In these cases, the global attractor can contain ``multifrequency solitary waves'' or linear combinations of distinct solitary waves.

Global well-posedness for the Schroedinger equation coupled to a nonlinear oscillator

The Schroedinger equation with the nonlinearity concentrated at a single point proves to be an interesting and important model for the analysis of long-time behavior of solutions, such as the asymptotic stability of solitary waves and properties of weak global attractors. In this note, we prove global well-posedness of this system in the energy space $H\sp 1$.

Global attractor for a nonlinear oscillator coupled to the Klein-Gordon field

The long-time asymptotics is analyzed for all finite energy solutions to a model U(1)-invariant nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation in one dimension, with the nonlinearity concentrated at a single point: each finite energy solution converges as time goes to plus or minus infinity to the set of all ``nonlinear eigenfunctions'' of the form $ψ(x)e\sp{-iωt}$. The global attraction is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation. We justify this mechanism by the following novel strategy based on inflation of spectrum by the nonlinearity. We show that any omega-limit trajectory has the time-spectrum in the spectral gap [-m,m] and satisfies the original equation. This equation implies the key spectral inclusion for spectrum of the nonlinear term. Then the application of the Titchmarsh Convolution Theorem reduces the spectrum of each omega-limit trajectory to a single harmonic in [-m,m]. The research is inspired by Bohr's postulate on quantum transitions and Schroedinger's identification of the quantum stationary states to the nonlinear eigenfunctions of the coupled U(1)-invariant Maxwell-Schroedinger and Maxwell-Dirac equations.
