Modulated amplitude waves with nonzero phases in Bose-Einstein condensates

In this paper we give a frame for application of the averaging method to Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) and obtain an abstract result upon the dynamics of BECs. Using aver- aging method, we determine the location where the modulated amplitude waves (periodic or quasi-periodic) exist and we also study the stability and instability of modulated amplitude waves (periodic or quasi-periodic). Compared with the previous work, modulated amplitude waves studied in this paper have nontrivial phases and this makes the problem become more diffcult, since it involves some singularities.

Construction of modulated amplitude waves via averaging in collisionally inhomogeneous Bose-Einstein condensates

We apply the averaging method to analyze spatio-temportal structures in nonlinear Schrödinger equations and thereby study the dynamics of quasi-one-dimensional collisionally inhomogeneous Bose-Einstein condensates with the scattering length varying periodically in spatial and crossing zero. Infinitely many (positive measure set) modulated amplitude waves (periodic and quasi-periodic), which are instable, can be proved to exist by adjusting the intergration constant c on some open interval. Finally, some numerical simulations support our results.
