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 revisit the proof of global well-posedness and scattering for the defocusing energy-critical NLS in three space dimensions in light of recent developments. This result was obtained previously by Colliander, Keel, Staffilani, Takaoka, and Tao.
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 study the quintic Non Linear Schrödinger equation on a two dimensional torus and exhibit orbits whose Sobolev norms grow with time. The main point is to reduce to a sufficiently simple toy model, similar in many ways to the one used in the case of the cubic NLS. This requires an accurate combinatorial analysis.
We consider the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the exterior of a smooth compact strictly convex obstacle in three dimensions. For the initial-value problem with Dirichlet boundary condition we prove global well-posedness and scattering for all initial data in the energy space.
We consider the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in two space dimensions. For this model, X. Cheng established scattering for $H^1$ data with mass strictly below that of the ground state for the cubic NLS. Subsequently, R. Carles and C. Sparber utilized the pseudoconformal energy estimate to obtain scattering at the sharp threshold for data belonging to a weighted Sobolev space. In this work, we remove the weighted assumption and establish scattering at the threshold for radial data in $H^1$.
We consider the defocusing quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in four space dimensions. We prove that any solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space must be global and scatter. We employ a space-localized interaction Morawetz inequality, the proof of which requires us to overcome the logarithmic failure in the double Duhamel argument in four dimensions.
In this paper we prove an almost sure local well-posedness result for the periodic 3D quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the supercritical regime, that is below the critical space $H^1(\mathbb T^3)$.
We consider the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in three space dimensions with combined focusing cubic and defocusing quintic nonlinearity. This problem was considered previously by Killip, Oh, Pocovnicu, and Visan, who proved scattering for the whole region of the mass/energy plane where the virial quantity is guaranteed to be positive. In this paper we prove scattering in a larger region where the virial quantity is no longer guaranteed to be sign definite.
We study the periodic cubic derivative non-linear Schrödinger equation (dNLS) and the (focussing) quintic non-linear Schrödinger equation (NLS). These are both $L^2$ critical dispersive models, which exhibit threshold type behavior, when posed on the line ${\mathbb R}$. We describe the (three parameter) family of non-vanishing bell-shaped solutions for the periodic problem, in closed form. The main objective of the paper is to study their stability with respect to co-periodic perturbations. We analyze these waves for stability in the framework of the cubic DNLS. We provide a criteria for stabi…
Consider the defocusing quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation on $\mathbf{R}^3$ with initial data in the energy space. This problem is "energy-critical" in view of a certain scale-invariance, which is a main source of difficulty in the analysis of this equation. It is a nontrivial fact that all finite-energy solutions scatter to linear solutions. We show that this remains true under small compact deformations of the Euclidean metric. Our main new ingredient is a long-time microlocal weak dispersive estimate that accounts for the refocusing of geodesics.
In this paper we consider inhomogeneous cubic-quintic NLS in space dimension $d = 3$: $$ iu_t = -Δu + K_1(x)|u|^2u + K_2(x)|u|^4u. $$ We study local well-posedness, finite time blowup, and small data scattering and non-scattering for the ICQNLS when $K_1, K_2 \in C^4(\mathbb R^3 \setminus \{0\})$ satisfy growth condition $|\partial^j K_i(x)| \lesssim |x|^{b_i-j}\, (j = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4)$ for some $b_i \ge 0$ and for $x \neq 0$. To this end we use the Sobolev inequality for the functions $f \in H^n \,(n = 1, 2)$ such that $\||\mathbf L|^\ell f\|_{H^n} < \infty \,(\ell = 1, 2)$, where $\mathbf L$ i…
We consider the initial-value problem for the cubic-quintic NLS \[ (i\partial_t+Δ)ψ=α_1 ψ-α_{3}\vert ψ\vert^2 ψ+α_5\vert ψ\vert^4 ψ\] in three spatial dimensions in the class of solutions with $|ψ(x)|\to c >0$ as $|x|\to\infty$. Here $α_1$, $α_3$, $α_5$ and $c$ are such that $ψ(x)\equiv c$ is an energetically stable equilibrium solution to this equation. Normalizing the boundary condition to $ψ(x)\to 1$ as $|x|\to\infty$, we study the associated initial-value problem for $u=ψ-1$ and prove a scattering result for small initial data in a weighted Sobolev space.
We consider the periodic cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation \begin{align}\label{cqnls_abstract} (i\partial_t +Δ)u=μ_1 |u|^2 u+μ_2 |u|^4 u\tag{CQNLS} \end{align} on the three-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^3$ with $μ_1,μ_2\in \mathbb{R} \setminus\{0\}$. As a first result, we establish the small data well-posedness of \eqref{cqnls_abstract} for arbitrarily given $μ_1$ and $μ_2$. By adapting the crucial perturbation arguments in \cite{zhang2006cauchy} to the periodic setting, we also prove that \eqref{cqnls_abstract} is always globally well-posed in $H^1(\mathbb{T}^3)$ in the case $μ_2>0…
We construct solutions with prescribed scattering state to the cubic-quintic NLS $$ (i\partial_t+Δ)ψ=α_1 ψ-α_{3}\vert ψ\vert^2 ψ+α_5\vert ψ\vert^4 ψ$$ in three spatial dimensions in the class of solutions with $|ψ(x)|\to c >0$ as $|x|\to\infty$. This models disturbances in an infinite expanse of (quantum) fluid in its quiescent state --- the limiting modulus $c$ corresponds to a local minimum in the energy density. Our arguments build on work of Gustafson, Nakanishi, and Tsai on the (defocusing) Gross--Pitaevskii equation. The presence of an energy-critical nonlinearity and changes in the geom…
We study the influence of Szeg{ö} projector $Π$ on the L 2 --critical one-dimensional non linear focusing Schr{ö}dinger equation, leading to the quintic focusing NLS-Szeg{ö} equation i$\partial$ t u + $\partial$ 2 x u + $Π$(|u| 4 u) = 0, (t, x) $\in$ R x R, u(0, $\times$) = u 0. This equation is globally well-posed in H 1 + = $Π$(H 1 (R)), for every initial datum u 0. The solution L 2-scatters both forward and backward in time if u 0 has sufficiently small mass. We prove the orbital stability with scaling of the traveling wave : u $ω$,c (t, x) = e i$ω$t Q(x + ct), for some $ω$, c > 0, where Q …
We consider the quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) on the circle. We prove that there exist solutions corresponding to an initial datum built on four Fourier modes which form a resonant set, which have a non trivial dynamic that involves periodic energy exchanges between the modes initially excited. It is noticeable that this nonlinear phenomena does not depend on the choice of the resonant set. The dynamical result is obtained by calculating a resonant normal form up to order 10 of the Hamiltonian of the quintic NLS and then by isolating an effective term of order 6. Notice that thi…
We prove that if $u(t)$ is a log-log blow-up solution, of the type studied by Merle-Raphaël (2001-2005), to the $L^2$ critical focusing NLS equation $i\partial_t u +Δu + |u|^{4/d} u=0$ with initial data $u_0\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$ in the cases $d=1, 2$, then $u(t)$ remains bounded in $H^1$ away from the blow-up point. This is obtained without assuming that the initial data $u_0$ has any regularity beyond $H^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$. As an application of the $d=1$ result, we construct an open subset of initial data in the radial energy space $H^1_{rad}(\mathbb{R}^3)$ with corresponding solutions that bl…
The aim of this paper is to show the small data scattering for 2D ICQNLS: $$iu_t=-Δu + K_1(x)|u|^2u+K_2(x)|u|^4u.$$ Under the assumption that $\left| \partial^j K_l \right| \lesssim |x|^{b_l -j}$ for $j=0, 1, 2, l=1, 2$ and $0 \le b_l \le l - \frac23$, we prove the small data scattering in an angularly regular Sobolev space $H_θ^{1,1}$. We use the decaying property of angularly regular functions, which are defined as functions in Sobolev space $H_θ^{1, 1} \subset H^1$ with angular regularity such that $\|\partial_θf\|_{H^1} < \infty$, and also use the recently developed angularly averaged Stri…

We consider the nonlinear Schrödinger equation of degree five on the circle $\mathbb{S}^1 = \mathbb{R}/2π$. We prove the existence of quasi-periodic solutions which bifurcate from "resonant" solutions (studied in [14]) of the system obtained by truncating the Hamiltonian after one step of Birkhoff normal form, exhibiting recurrent exchange of energy between some Fourier modes. The existence of these quasi-periodic solutions is a purely nonlinear effect.
We consider the $L^{2}$-critical quintic focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) on ${\bf R}$. It is well known that $H^{1}$ solutions of the aforementioned equation blow up in finite time. In higher dimensions, for $H^{1}$ spherically symmetric blow-up solutions of the $L^{2}$-critical focusing NLS, there is a minimal amount of concentration of the $L^{2}$-norm (the mass of the ground state) at the origin. In this paper we prove the existence of a similar phenomenon for the one-dimensional case and rougher initial data, $(u_{0}\in H^{s}, s<1)$, without any additional assumption.
We prove almost sure global existence and scattering for the energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with randomized spherically symmetric initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^4)$ with $\frac56<s<1$. We were inspired to consider this problem by the recent work of Dodson--Lührmann--Mendelson, which treated the analogous problem for the energy-critical wave equation.
In this paper, we study the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equations $$ i\partial_t u + Δu = |u|^{\frac{4}{d-2}} u. $$ When $d=3,4$, we prove the almost sure scattering for the equations with non-radial data in $H_x^s$ for any $s\in\mathbb{R}$. In particular, our result does not rely on any spherical symmetry, size or regularity restrictions.
We investigate the dynamics of a boson gas with three-body interactions in dimensions $d=1,2$. We prove that in the limit of infinite particle number, the BBGKY hierarchy of $k$-particle marginals converges to a limiting (Gross-Pitaevskii (GP)) hierarchy for which we prove existence and uniqueness of solutions. Factorized solutions of the GP hierarchy are shown to be determined by solutions of a quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Our proof is based on, and extends, methods of Erdös-Schlein-Yau, Klainerman-Machedon, and Kirkpatrick-Schlein-Staffilani.
We consider a randomization of a function on $\mathbb R^d$ that is naturally associated to the Wiener decomposition and, intrinsically, to the modulation spaces. Such randomized functions enjoy better integrability, thus allowing us to improve the Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger equation. As an example, we also show that the energy-critical cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation on $\mathbb R^4$ is almost surely locally well-posed with respect to randomized initial data below the energy space.
We study the one-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the cubic-quintic combination of attractive and repulsive nonlinearities, and a trapping potential represented by a delta-function. We determine all bound states with a positive soliton profile through explicit formulas and, using bifurcation theory, we describe their behavior with respect to the propagation constant. This information is used to prove their stability by means of the rigorous theory of orbital stability of Hamiltonian systems. The presence of the trapping potential gives rise to a regime where two stable bound sta…
We prove that solutions to non-linear Schrödinger equations in two dimensions and in the exterior of a bounded and smooth star-shaped obstacle scatter in the energy space. The non-linear potential is defocusing and grows at least as the quintic power.
We consider the Gross--Pitaevskii equation on $\R^4$ and the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) on $\R^3$ with non-vanishing boundary conditions at spatial infinity. By viewing these equations as perturbations to the energy-critical NLS, we prove that they are globally well-posed in their energy spaces. In particular, we prove unconditional uniqueness in the energy spaces for these equations.
In this short note, we present some decay estimates for nonlinear solutions of 3d quintic, 3d cubic and 2d quintic NLS (nonlinear Schrödinger equations).
We prove almost sure global well-posedness of the energy-critical defocusing quintic nonlinear wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^3$ with random initial data in $ H^s(\mathbb{R}^3) \times H^{s-1}(\mathbb{R}^3)$ for $s > \frac 12$. The main new ingredient is a uniform probabilistic energy bound for approximating random solutions.
We study growth of higher Sobolev norms of solutions to the one-dimensional periodic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS). By a combination of the normal form reduction and the upside-down I-method, we establish \|u(t)\|_{H^s} \lesssim (1+|t|)^{α(s-1)+} with α= 1 for a general power nonlinearity. In the quintic case, we obtain the above estimate with α= 1/2 via the space-time estimate due to Bourgain [4], [5]. In the cubic case, we concretely compute the terms arising in the first few steps of the normal form reduction and prove the above estimate with α= 4/9. These results improve the previou…
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…
In this paper we construct an invariant weighted Wiener measure associated to the periodic derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one dimension and establish global well-posedness for data living in its support. In particular almost surely for data in a Fourier-Lebesgue space ${\mathcal F}L^{s,r}(\T)$ with $s \ge \frac{1}{2}$, $2 < r < 4$, $(s-1)r <-1$ and scaling like $H^{\frac{1}{2}-ε}(\T),$ for small $ε>0$. We also show the invariance of this measure.
In this paper we study the existence and linear stability of almost periodic solutions for a NLS equation on the circle with external parameters. Starting from the seminal result of Bourgain (2005) on the quintic NLS, we propose a novel approach allowing to prove in a unified framework the persistence of finite and infinite dimensional invariant tori, which are the support of the desired solutions. The persistence result is given through a rather abstract "counter-term theorem" `a la Herman, directly in the original elliptic variables without passing to action-angle ones. Our framework allows …
We consider the Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional periodic cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with initial data below L^2. In particular, we exhibit nonlinear smoothing when the initial data are randomized. Then, we prove local well-posedness of NLS almost surely for the initial data in the support of the canonical Gaussian measures on H^s(T) for each s > -1/3, and global well-posedness for each s > -1/12.
Using the concentration-compactness method and the localized virial type arguments, we study the behavior of $H^1$ solutions to the focusing quintic NLS in $\R^2$, namely, $$i \partial_t u+Δu+|u|^4u=0,\quad\quad (x, t) \in \R^2\times\R.$$ Denoting by $M[u]$ and $E[u]$, the mass and energy of a solution $u,$ respectively, and $Q$ the ground state solution to $-Q+ΔQ+ |Q|^4Q=0$, and assuming $M[u]E[u] <M[Q]E[Q]$, we characterize the threshold for global versus finite time existence. Moreover, we show scattering for global existing time solutions and finite or "weak" blow up for the complement reg…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) with non-algebraic nonlinearities on the Euclidean space. In particular, we study the energy-critical NLS on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d=5,6$, and energy-critical NLS without gauge invariance and prove that they are almost surely locally well-posed with respect to randomized initial data below the energy space. We also study the long time behavior of solutions to these equations: (i) we prove almost sure global well-posedness of the (standard) energy-critical NLS on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d = 5, 6$, in the defocusing case, and (ii) …
The tadpole graph consists of a circle and a half-line attached at a vertex. We analyze standing waves of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with quintic power nonlinearity equipped with the Neumann-Kirchhoff boundary conditions at the vertex. The profile of the standing wave with the frequency $ω\in (-\infty,0)$ is characterized as a global minimizer of the quadratic part of energy constrained to the unit sphere in $L^6$. The set of minimizers includes the set of ground states of the system, which are the global minimizers of the energy at constant mass ($L^2$-norm), but it is actually wider.…
We derive the 3D quintic NLS as the mean field limit of a Bose gas with three-body interactions. The quintic NLS is energy-critical, leading to several new difficulties in comparison with the cubic NLS which emerges from Bose gases with pair-interactions. Our method is based on Bogoliubov's approximation, which also provides the information on the fluctuations around the condensate in terms of a norm approximation for the N-body wave function.
Using the Fermi Golden Rule analysis developed in several results by the first author, we prove asymptotic stability of asymmetric nonlinear bound states bifurcating from linear bound states for a quintic nonlinear Schrödinger operator with symmetric potential. This goes in the direction of proving that the approximate periodic solutions of the NLS shadowed in a recent work of the second author with Michael Weinstein do not persist for the full NLS.
We study the Cauchy problem for the cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation, perturbed by (higher order) dissipative nonlinearities. We prove global in-time existence of solutions for general initial data in the energy space. In particular we treat the energy-critical case of a quintic dissipation in three space dimensions.
In this paper we study radial solutions of certain two-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation with harmonic potential, which is supercritical with respect to the initial data. By combining the nonlinear smoothing effect of Schr ödinger equation with Lp estimates of Laguerre functions, we are able to prove an almost sure global well-posedness result and the invariance of the Gibbs measure. We also discuss an application to the NLS equation without harmonic potential.
