Transverse linear stability of line solitons for 2D Toda

The $2$-dimensional Toda lattice ($2$D Toda) is a completely integrable semi-discrete wave equation with the KP-II equation in its continuous limit. Using Darboux transformations, we prove the linear stability of $1$-line solitons for $2$D Toda of any size in an exponentially weighted space. We prove that the dominant part of solutions to the linearized equation around a $1$-line soliton is a time derivative of the $1$-line soliton multiplied by a function of time and transverse variables. The amplitude is described by a $1$-dimensional damped wave equation in the transverse variable, as is the case with the linearized KP-II equation.

Linear stability of elastic 2-line solitons for the KP-II equation

The KP-II equation was derived by Kadomtsev and Petviashvili to explain stability of line solitary waves of shallow water. Using the Darboux transformations, we study linear stability of 2-line solitons whose line solitons interact elastically each other. Time evolution of resonant continuous eigenfunctions is described by a damped wave equation in the transverse variable which is supposed to be a linear approximation of the local phase shifts of modulating line solitons.

Stability of Benney-Luke line solitary waves in 2D

The $2$D Benney-Luke equation is an isotropic model which describes long water waves of small amplitude in $3$D whereas the KP-II equation is a unidirectional model for long waves with slow variation in the transverse direction. In the case where the surface tension is weak or negligible, linearly stability of small line solitary waves of the $2$D Benney-Luke equation was proved by Mizumachi and Shimabukuro [Nonlinearity, 30 (2017), 3419--3465]. In this paper, we prove nonlinear stability of the line solitary waves by adopting the argument by Mizumachi ([Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. no. 1125], [Proc. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh Sect. A., 148 (2018), 149--198] and [arXiv:1808.00809]) which prove nonlinear stability of $1$-line solitons for the KP-II equation.

The phase shift of line solitons for the KP-II equation

The KP-II equation was derived by [B. B. Kadomtsev and V. I. Petviashvili,Sov. Phys. Dokl. vol.15 (1970), 539-541] to explain stability of line solitary waves of shallow water. Stability of line solitons has been proved by [T. Mizumachi, Mem. of vol. 238 (2015), no.1125] and [T. Mizumachi, Proc. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh Sect. A. vol.148 (2018), 149--198]. It turns out the local phase shift of modulating line solitons are not uniform in the transverse direction. In this paper, we obtain the $L^\infty$-bound for the local phase shift of modulating line solitons for polynomially localized perturbations.

Asymptotic Linear Stability of the Benney-Luke equation in 2D

In this paper, we study transverse linear stability of line solitary waves to the $2$-dimensional Benney-Luke equation which arises in the study of small amplitude long water waves in $3$D. In the case where the surface tension is weak or negligible, we find a curve of resonant continuous eigenvalues near $0$. Time evolution of these resonant continuous eigenmodes is described by a $1$D damped wave equation in the transverse variable and it gives a linear approximation of the local phase shifts of modulating line solitary waves. In exponentially weighted space whose weight function increases in the direction of the motion of the line solitary wave, the other part of solutions to the linearized equation decays exponentially as $t\to\infty$.

Stability of line solitons for the KP-II equation in $\mathbb{R}^2$, II

The KP-II equation was derived by Kadmotsev and Petviashvili to explain stability of line solitary waves of shallow water. Recently, Mizumachi (Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 238 (2015)) has proved nonlinear stability of $1$-line solitons for exponentially localized perturbations. In this paper, we prove stability of $1$-line solitons for perturbations in $(1+x^2)^{-1/2-0}H^1(\mathbb{R}^2)$ and perturbations in $H^1(\mathbb{R}^2)\cap \partial_xL^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$.

$L^2$-stability of solitary waves for the KdV equation via Pego and Weinstein's method

In this article, we will prove $L^2(\mathbb{R})$-stability of $1$-solitons for the KdV equation by using exponential stability property of the semigroup generated by the linearized operator. The proof follows the lines of recent stability argument of Mizumachi [Asymptotic stability of lattice solitons in the energy space, Comm. Math. Phys., (2009)] and Mizumachi, Pego and Quintero [Asymptotic stability of solitary waves in the Benney-Luke model of water waves, Differential Integral Equations, (2013)] which show stability in the energy class by using strong linear stability of solitary waves in exponentially weighted spaces. This gives an alternative proof of Merle and Vega [$L^2$ stability of solitons for KdV equation, Int. Math. Res. Not., (2003)] which shows $L^2(\mathbb{R})$-stability of $1$-solitons for the KdV equation by using the Miura transformation. Our argument is a refinement of Pego and Weinstein [Asymptotic stability of solitary waves, Comm. Math. Phys., (1994)] that proves asymptotic stability of solitary waves in exponentially weighted spaces. We slightly improve the $H^1$-stability of the modified KdV equation as well.

Stability of line solitons for the KP-II equation in $\R^2$

We prove nonlinear stability of line soliton solutions of the KP-II equation with respect to transverse perturbations that are exponentially localized as $x\to\infty$. We find that the amplitude of the line soliton converges to that of the line soliton at initial time whereas jumps of the local phase shift of the crest propagate in a finite speed toward $y=\pm\infty$. The local amplitude and the phase shift of the crest of the line solitons are described by a system of 1D wave equations with diffraction terms.

Asymptotic stability of solitary waves in the Benney-Luke model of water waves

We study asymptotic stability of solitary wave solutions in the one-dimensional Benney-Luke equation, a formally valid approximation for describing two-way water wave propagation. For this equation, as for the full water wave problem, the classic variational method for proving orbital stability of solitary waves fails dramatically due to the fact that the second variation of the energy-momentum functional is infinitely indefinite. We establish nonlinear stability in energy norm under the spectral stability hypothesis that the linearization admits no non-zero eigenvalues of non-negative real part. We also verify this hypothesis for waves of small energy.

Backlund transformation and L2-stability of NLS solitons

Ground states of a L2-subcritical focusing nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation are known to be orbitally stable in the energy class H1 thanks to its variational characterization. In this paper, we will show L2-orbital stability of 1-solitons to a one-dimensional cubic NLS equation for any initial data which are close to 1-solitons in L2. Moreover, we prove that if the initial data are in H3 in addition to being small in L2, then the solution remains in an L2-neighborhood of a specific 1-soliton solution for all the time. The proof relies on the Backlund transformation between zero and soliton solutions of this integrable equation.

N-soliton states of the FPU lattices

In this paper, we prove existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Fermi Pasta Ulam lattice equation that converge to a sum of co-propagating $N$ solitary waves as $t\to\infty$ using linear stability property of multi-soliton like solutions in an exponentially weighted space proved by [Mizumachi, arXiv:0906.1320]. Counter-propagating two soliton states have been studied by [Hoffman and Wayne, Asymptotic two-soliton solutions in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam model, J. Dynam. Differential Equations 21 (2009), 343-351].

Asymptotic stability of N-solitons of the FPU lattices

We study stability of N-soliton solutions of the FPU lattice equation. Solitary wave solutions of FPU cannot be characterized as a critical point of conservation laws due to the lack of infinitesimal invariance in the spatial variable. In place of standard variational arguments for Hamiltonian systems, we use an exponential stability property of the linearized FPU equation in a weighted space which is biased in the direction of motion. The dispersion of the linearized FPU equation balances the potential term for low frequencies, whereas the dispersion is superior for high frequencies. We approximate the low frequency part of a solution of the linearized FPU equation by a solution to the linearized KdV equation around an N-soliton. We prove an exponential stability property of the linearized KdV equation around N-solitons by using the linearized Backlund transformation and use the result to analyze the linearized FPU equation.

On asymptotic stability in energy space of ground states for Nonlinear Schrödinger equations

We consider nonlinear Schrödinger equations in dimension 3 or higher. We prove that symmetric finite energy solutions close to orbitally stable ground states converge asymptotically to a sum of a ground state and a dispersive wave assuming the so called Fermi Golden Rule (FGR) hypothesis. We improve the sign condition required in a recent paper by Gang Zhou and I.M.Sigal

Asymptotic stability of small solitons to 1D NLS with potential

We consider asymptotic stability of a small solitary wave to supercritical 1-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equations $$ iu_t+u_{xx}=Vu\pm |u|^{p-1}u \quad\text{for $(x,t)\in\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}$,}$$ in the energy class. This problem was studied by Gustafson-Nakanishi-Tsai \cite{GNT} in the 3-dimensional case using the endpoint Strichartz estimate. To prove asymptotic stability of solitary waves, we need to show that a dispersive part $v(t,x)$ of a solution belongs to $L^2_t(0,\infty;X)$ for some space $X$. In the 1-dimensional case, this property does not follow from the Strichartz estimate alone. In this paper, we prove that the local smoothing effect of Kato type holds global in time and combine this estimate with the Strichartz estimate to show $\|(1+x^2)^{-3/4}v\|_{L^\infty_xL^2_t}<\infty$, which implies the asymptotic stability of a solitary wave.

Asymptotic stability of lattice solitons in the energy space

Orbital and asymptotic stability for 1-soliton solutions to the Toda lattice equations as well as small solitary waves to the FPU lattice equations are established in the energy space. Unlike analogous Hamiltonian PDEs, the lattice equations do not conserve momentum. Furthermore, the Toda lattice equation is a bidirectional model that does not fit in with existing theory for Hamiltonian system by Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss. To prove stability of 1-soliton solutions, we split a solution around a 1-soliton into a small solution that moves more slowly than the main solitary wave, and an exponentially localized part. We apply a decay estimate for solutions to a linearized Toda equation which has been recently proved by Mizumachi and Pego to estimate the localized part. We improve the asymptotic stability results for FPU lattices in a weighted space obtained by Friesecke and Pego.
