We investigate the $L^2$-supercritical and $\dot{H}^1$-subcritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $H^1$. In \cite{G1} and \cite{yuan}, the mass-energy quantity $M(Q)^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}E(Q)$ has been shown to be a threshold for the dynamical behavior of solutions of the equation. In the present paper, we study the dynamics at the critical level $M(u)^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}E(u)=M(Q)^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}E(Q)$ and classify the corresponding solutions using modulation theory, non-trivially generalize the results obtained in \cite{holmer3} for the 3D cubic Schrödinger equation.
In this paper we study the existence and stability of normalized standing waves for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on a general starlike graph with potentials. Under general assumptions on the graph and the potential, we show the existence of orbitally stable standing waves when the nonlinearity is $L^{2}$-critical and supercritical.
This paper is devoted to the existence of non-trivial bound states of prescribed mass for the mass-supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation on compact metric graphs. The investigation is based upon a general variational principle which combines the monotonicity trick and a min-max theorem with second order information, and upon the blow-up analysis of bound states with prescribed mass and bounded Morse index.
We consider the radial defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations $iu_t+Δu=|u|^{p}u$ with supercritical exponent $p>4$ in four space dimensions, and prove that any radial solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space must be global and scatter.
We investigate the existence of solutions to the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation $(-Δ)^s u = f(u)$ with prescribed $L^2$-norm $\int_{\mathbb{R}^N} |u|^2 \, dx =m$ in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^N)$. Under fairly general assumptions on the nonlinearity $f$, we prove the existence of a ground state solution and a multiplicity result in the radially symmetric case.
We consider the focusing mass supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with rotation \begin{equation*} iu_{t}=-\frac{1}{2}Δu+\frac{1}{2}V(x)u-|u|^{p-1}u+L_Ωu,\quad (x,t)\in \mathbb{R}^{N}\times\mathbb{R}, \end{equation*} where $N=2$ or $3$ and $V(x)$ is an anisotropic harmonic potential. Here $L_Ω$ is the quantum mechanical angular momentum operator. We establish conditions for global existence and blow-up in the energy space. Moreover, we prove strong instability of standing waves under certain conditions on the rotation and the frequency of the wave. Finally, we construct orbitally stabl…
This paper studies the quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with randomized initial data below the critical regularity $H^{\frac{d-1}{2}}$. The main result is a proof of almost sure local well-posedness given a Wiener Randomization of the data in $H^s$ for $s \in (\frac{d-2}{2}, \frac{d-1}{2})$. The argument further develops the techniques introduced in the work of Á. Bényi, T. Oh and O. Pocovnicu on the cubic problem. The paper concludes with a condition for almost sure global well-posedness.
We study the Cauchy problem for NLS with a class of $H^s$-super-critical data \begin{align} & {\rm i}u_t +Δu+ λ|u|^{2κ} u =0, \quad u(0)=u_0 \label{NLSabstract} \end{align} and show that \eqref{NLSabstract} is globally well-posed and scattering in $α$-modulation spaces $M^{s,α}_{2,1}$ ($α\in [0,1), \ s> dα/2-α/κ$, $κ\in \mathbb{N}$ and $κ\geq 2/d$) for the sufficiently small data. Moreover, NLS is ill-posed in $M^{s,α}_{2,1}$ if $s< dα/2-α/κ$. In particular, we obtain a class of initial data $u_0$ satisfying for any $M\gg 1$, \begin{align} \|u_0\|_2 \sim M^{1/κ-d/2 }, \ \ \|u_0\|_\infty \ =\in…
We consider the 1D nonlinear Schrödinger equation with focusing point nonlinearity. "Point" means that the pure-power nonlinearity has an inhomogeneous potential and the potential is the delta function supported at the origin. This equation is used to model a Kerr-type medium with a narrow strip in the optic fibre. There are several mathematical studies on this equation and the local/global existence of solution, blow-up occurrence and blow-up profile have been investigated. In this paper we focus on the asymptotic behavior of the global solution, i.e, we show that the global solution scatters…
We study stable blow-up dynamics in the $L^2$-supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in various dimensions. We first investigate the profile equation and extend the result of X.-P. Wang [38] and Budd et al. [4] on the existence and local uniqueness of solutions of the cubic profile equation to other $L^2$-supercritical nonlinearities and dimensions $d \geq 2$. We then numerically observe the multi-bump structure of such solutions, and in particular, exhibit the $Q_{1,0}$ solution, a candidate for the stable blow-up profile. Next, using the dynamic rescaling method, we investigate stable …
We prove the existence of orbitally stable ground states to NLS with a partial confinement together with qualitative and symmetry properties. This result is obtained for nonlinearities which are $L^2$-supercritical, in particular we cover the physically relevant cubic case. The equation that we consider is the limit case of the cigar-shaped model in BEC.
We consider the cubic and quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) under the $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ and $\mathbb{T}^{d}$ energy-supercritical setting. Via a newly developed unified scheme, we prove the unconditional uniqueness for solutions to NLS at critical regularity for all dimensions. Thus, together with [18,19], the unconditional uniqueness problems for $H^{1}$-critical and $H^{1}$-supercritical cubic and quintic NLS are completely and uniformly resolved at critical regularity for these domains. One application of our theorem is to prove that defocusing blowup solutions of the type in [54…
In this paper, we present two almost sure global well-posedness (GWP) results for the energy supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) on the unit ball of $\Bbb R^3$ using two different approaches. First, for the NLS with algebraic nonlinearities with the subcritical initial data, we show the almost sure global well-posedness and the invariance of the underlying measures, and establish controls on the growth of Sobolev norms of the solutions. This global result is based on a deterministic local theory and a probabilistic globalization. Second, for the NLS with generic power nonlinear…
We investigate the NLS equation with competing Hartree-type and power-type nonlinearities \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{ll} i\partial _{t}ψ+Δψ+γ(I_{α}\ast |ψ|^{p})|ψ|^{p-2}ψ+μ|ψ|^{q-2}ψ=0, & \text{ }\forall (t,x)\in \mathbb{R\times R}^{N},% \end{array}% \end{equation*}% where $γμ<0$. We establish conditions for the local well-posedness in the energy space. Under the double $L^{2}$-supercritical case, we prove the existence and multiplicity of standing waves with prescribed mass by developing a constraint method when $γ<0,μ>0$ and $γ>0,μ<0, $ respectively. Moreover, we prove weak orbital stab…
We prove an infinite dimensional version of the Arnold-Liouville theorem for integrable non-linear PDEs: In a case study we consider the {\em focusing} NLS equation with periodic boundary conditions.
We consider the large data scattering problem for the 2D and 3D cubic-quintic NLS in the focusing-focusing regime. Our attention is firstly restricted to the 2D space, where the cubic nonlinearity is $L^2$-critical. We establish a new type of scattering criterion that is uniquely determined by the mass of the initial data, which differs from the classical setting based on the Lyapunov functional. At the end, we also formulate a solely mass-determining scattering threshold for the 3D cubic-quintic NLS in the focusing-focusing regime.
We show the $H^{1}$ scattering for a one dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a non-negative, repulsive potential $V$ such that $V,xV\in W^{1,1}$, and a mass-supercritical non-linearity. We follow the approach of concentration-compacity/rigidity first introduced by Kenig and Merle.
We consider the focusing cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inverse-square potential in three space dimensions. We identify a sharp threshold between scattering and blowup, establishing a result analogous to that of Duyckaerts, Holmer, and Roudenko for the standard focusing cubic NLS. We also prove failure of uniform space-time bounds at the threshold.
We revisit the scattering result of Holmer and Roudenko on the radial focusing cubic NLS in three space dimensions. Using the radial Sobolev embedding and a virial/Morawetz estimate, we give a simple proof of scattering below the ground state that avoids the use of concentration compactness.
We prove that there exist potentials so that near them the focusing non-linear Schrödinger equation does not admit local Birkhoff coordinates. The proof is based on the construction of a local normal form of the linearization of the equation at such potentials.
We revisit the scattering result of Duyckaerts, Holmer, and Roudenko for the non-radial $\dot H^{1/2}$-critical focusing NLS. By proving an interaction Morawetz inequality, we give a simple proof of scattering below the ground state in dimensions $d\geq 3$ that avoids the use of concentration compactness.
In this paper we study long time dynamics (i.e., scattering and blow-up) of solutions for the focusing NLS with a repulsive inverse-power potential and with initial data lying exactly at the mass-energy threshold, namely, when $E_{V}(u_{0})M(u_{0})=E_{0}(Q)M(Q)$. Moreover, we prove failure of the uniform space-time bounds at the mass-energy threshold.
In this paper, we consider a 3d cubic focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with slowing decaying potentials. Adopting the variational method of Ibrahim-Masmoudi-Nakanishi \cite{IMN}, we obtain a condition for scattering. It is actually sharp in some sense since the solution will blow up if it's false. The proof of blow-up part relies on the method of Du-Wu-Zhang \cite{DWZ}
