Infinitely many positive solutions of a Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the presence of a harmonic potential and combined nonlinearities

The main goal of this paper is to address an important conjecture in the field of differential equations in the presence of a harmonic potential. While in the subcritical case, the uniqueness of positive solution has been addressed by Hirose and Ohta in 2007, the problem has remained open for years in the supercritical case. In Hadj Selem et al., the authors obtained interesting numerical computations suggesting that for some bifurcating parameter $λ$, the equation has many positive solutions that vanish at infinity. In this paper, we provide a proof to this claim by constructing an accountable number of solutions that bifurcate from the unique singular solutions with $λ$ close to the first eigenvalue $λ_1$ of the harmonic operator $-Δ+ |x|^2$. Our method hinges on a matching argument, and applies to the supercritical case, and to the supercritical case in the presence of a subcritical, critical or supercritical perturbation.

Pitchfork bifurcation at line solitons for nonlinear Schrödinger equations on the product space $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$

In this paper, we study the bifurcation problem from a line soliton for a stationary nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the product space $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$. We extend earlier results to a larger class of the nonlinearity in the equation. The salient point of our analysis relies on a lower bound of solution to the ``auxiliary equation'' and then on the application of the Crandall-Rabinowitz argument

Transverse stability of line soliton and characterization of ground state for wave guide Schrödinger equations

In this paper, we study the transverse stability of the line Schrödinger soliton under a full wave guide Schrödinger flow on a cylindrical domain $\mathbb R\times\mathbb T$. When the nonlinearity is of power type $|ψ|^{p-1}ψ$ with $p>1$, we show that there exists a critical frequency $ω_{p} >0$ such that the line standing wave is stable for $0<ω< ω_{p}$ and unstable for $ω> ω_{p}$. Furthermore, we characterize the ground state of the wave guide Schrödinger equation. More precisely, we prove that there exists $ω_{*} \in (0, ω_{p}]$ such that the ground states coincide with the line standing waves for $ω\in (0, ω_{*}]$ and are different from the line standing waves for $ω\in (ω_{*}, \infty)$.

Self-similar blow-up profiles for slightly supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations

We construct radially symmetric self-similar blow-up profiles for the mass supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation $i\partial_t u + Δu + |u|^{p-1}u=0$ on $\mathbf{R}^d$, close to the mass critical case and for any space dimension $d\ge 1$. These profiles bifurcate from the ground state solitary wave. The argument relies on the classical matched asymptotics method suggested in [Sulem, C.; Sulem, P.-L., The nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Self-focusing and wave collapse. Applied Mathematical Sciences, 139. Springer-Verlag, New York, 1999] which needs to be applied in a degenerate case due to the presence of exponentially small terms in the bifurcation equation related to the log-log blow-up law observed in the mass critical case.

Remarks on solitary waves and Cauchy problem for a Half-wave-Schrödinger equations

In this paper, we study the solitary wave and the Cauchy problem for Half-wave-Schrödinger equations in the plane. First, we show the existence and orbital stability of the ground states. Secondly, we prove that traveling waves exist and converge to zero as the velocity tends to $1$. Finally, we solve the Cauchy problem for initial data in $L^{2}_{x}H^{s}_{y}(\mathbb{R}^{2})$, with $s>\frac{1}{2}$.

On the asymptotic stability in the energy space for multi-solitons of the Landau-Lifshitz equation

We establish the asymptotic stability of multi-solitons for the one-dimensional Landau-Lifshitz equation with an easy-plane anisotropy. The solitons have non-zero speed, are ordered according to their speeds and have sufficiently separated initial positions. We provide the asymptotic stability around solitons and between solitons. More precisely, we show that for an initial datum close to a sum of $N$ dark solitons, the corresponding solution converges weakly to one of the solitons in the sum, when it is translated to the centre of this soliton, and converges weakly to zero when it is translated between solitons.

Asymptotic stability in the energy space for dark solitons of the Landau-Lifshitz equation

We prove the asymptotic stability in the energy space of non-zero speed solitons for the one-dimensional Landau-Lifshitz equation with an easy-plane anisotropy. More precisely, we show that any solution corresponding to an initial datum close to a soliton with non-zero speed, is weakly convergent in the energy space as time goes to infinity, to a soliton with a possible different non-zero speed, up to the invariances of the equation. Our analysis relies on the ideas developed by Martel and Merle for the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations. We use the Madelung transform to study the problem in the hydrodynamical framework. In this framework, we rely on the orbital stability of the solitons and the weak continuity of the flow in order to construct a limit profile. We next derive a monotonicity formula for the momentum, which gives the localization of the limit profile. Its smoothness and exponential decay then follow from a smoothing result for the localized solutions of the Schrödinger equations. Finally, we prove a Liouville type theorem, which shows that only the solitons enjoy these properties in their neighbourhoods.
