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 nonlinearities with critical and supercritical initial conditions, we prove the almost sure global well-posedness, and the invariance of the measure under the solution flows. This global result is built on a compactness argument and the Skorokhod representation theorem.
We consider radial solutions of a mass supercritical monic NLS and we prove the existence of a set, which looks like a hypersurface, in the space of finite energy functions, invariant for the flow and formed by solutions which converge to ground states.
Multi-soliton solutions, i.e. solutions behaving as the sum of N given solitons as $t\to +\infty$, were constructed in previous works for the L2 critical and subcritical (NLS) and (gKdV) equations. In this paper, we extend the construction of multi-soliton solutions to the L2 supercritical case both for (gKdV) and (NLS) equations, using a topological argument to control the direction of instability.
We show that all supercritical monic focusing NLS in one space dimension exhibit asymptotic stability of perturbed standing waves provided the perturbations are chosen on a small hypersuface in a suitable space.
We consider two classes of defocusing energy-supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations in dimensions $d\geq 5$. We prove that if the solution $u$ is apriorily bounded in the critical Sobolev space, that is, $u\in L_t^\infty \dot H^{s_c}_x$, then $u$ is global and scatters.
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 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 a class of defocusing energy-supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations in four space dimensions. Following a concentration-compactness approach, we show that for $1<s_c<3/2$, any solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space $\dot{H}_x^{s_c}(\R^4)$ must be global and scatter. Key ingredients in the proof include a long-time Strichartz estimate and a frequency-localized interaction Morawetz inequality.
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.
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.
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…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the electron magnetohydrodynamics model in the supercritical regime. For rough initial data in $\mathcal H^{-s}(\mathbb T^n)$ with $s>0$, we obtain global in time weak solutions almost surely via an appropriate randomization of the initial data.
We consider the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations $i\partial_t u+Δu +u|u|^{p-1}=0$ in dimension $1\leq N\leq 5$ and for slightly $L^2$ supercritical nonlinearities $p_c<p<(1+\e)p_c$ with $p_c=1+\frac{4}{N}$ and $0<\e\ll 1$. We prove the existence and stability in the energy space $H^1$ of a self similar finite time blow up dynamics and provide a qualitative description of the singularity formation near the blow up time
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.
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 consider the focusing $\dot H^{s_c}$-critical biharmonic Schrödinger equation, and prove a global wellposedness and scattering result for the radial data $u_0\in H^2(\mathbb R^N)$ satisfying $ M(u_0)^{\frac{2-s_c}{s_c}}E(u_0)<M(Q)^{\frac{2-s_c}{s_c}}E(Q) $ and $ \|u_{0}\|^{\frac{2-s_c}{s_c}}_{2}\|Δu_{0}\|_{2}<\|Q\|^{\frac{2-s_c}{s_c}}_{2}\|ΔQ\|_{2}, $ where $s_c\in(0,2)$ and $Q$ is the ground state of $Δ^2Q+(2-s_c)Q-|Q|^{p-1}Q=0$.
We study solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with prescribed mass and Dirichlet homogeneous boundary conditions in the unitary ball. Such problem arises in the search of solitary wave solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) with Sobolev subcritical power nonlinearity on bounded domains. Necessary and sufficient conditions are provided for the existence of such solutions. Moreover, we show that standing waves associated to least energy solutions are always orbitally stable when the nonlinearity is L^2-critical and subcritical, while they are almost always stable in the L^2-s…
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.
We investigate the initial value problem for a defocusing nonlinear Schrödingerequation with exponential nonlinearity. We identify subcritical, critical and supercritical regimes in the energy space. We establish global well-posedness in the subcritical and critical regimes. Well-posedness fails to hold in the supercritical case.
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 study the cubic defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^4$ with supercritical initial data. For randomized initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^4)$, we prove almost sure local wellposedness for $\frac{1}{7} < s < 1$ and almost sure scattering for $\frac{5}{7} < s < 1$. The randomization is based on a unit-scale decomposition in frequency space, a decomposition in the angular variable, and - for the almost sure scattering result - an additional unit-scale decomposition in physical space. We employ new probabilistic estimates for the linear Schrödinger flow with randomized data, w…
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…
In this article we study the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^4$ with scaling supercritical data. We prove almost sure scattering for randomized initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^4) \times H^{s-1}(\mathbb{R}^4)$ with $\frac{5}{6} < s < 1$. The proof relies on new probabilistic estimates for the linear flow of the wave equation with randomized data, where the randomization is based on a unit-scale decomposition in frequency space, a decomposition in the angular variable, and a unit-scale decomposition of physical space. In particular, we show that the solution to …
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 consider the magnetohydrodynamics system with Hall effect accompanied with initial data in supercritical Sobolev space. Via an appropriate randomization of the supercritical initial data, both local and small data global well-posedness for the system are obtained almost surely in critical Sobolev space.
We investigate the nonlinear Schrödinger equation $iu_{t}+Δu+|u|^{p-1}u=0$ with $1+\frac{4}{N}<p<1+\frac{4}{N-2}$ (when $N=1, 2$, $1+\frac{4}{N}<p<\infty$) in energy space $H^1$ and study the divergent property of infinite-variance and nonradial solutions. If $M(u)^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}E(u)<M(Q)^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}E(Q)$ and $\|u_{0}\|_{2}^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}\|\nabla u_{0}\|_{2}>\|Q\|_{2}^{\frac{1-s_{c}}{s_{c}}}\|\nabla Q\|_{2},$ then either $u(t)$~blows up in finite forward time, or $u(t)$ exists globally for positive time and there exists a time sequence $t_{n}\rightarrow+\infty$ su…
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 finite time supercritical blowup in a parity-time-symmetric system of the two coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations. One of the equations contains gain and the other one contains dissipation such that strengths of the gain and dissipation are equal. We address two cases: in the first model all nonlinear coefficients (i.e. the ones describing self-action and non-linear coupling) correspond to attractive (focusing) nonlinearities, and in the second case the NLS equation with gain has attractive nonlinearity while the NLS equation with dissipation has repulsive (defocusing) nonli…
We consider the energy super critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$i\pa_tu+Δu+u|u|^{p-1}=0$$ in large dimensions $d\geq 11$ with spherically symmetric data. For all $p>p(d)$ large enough, in particular in the super critical regime, we construct a family of smooth finite time blow up solutions which become singular via concentration of a universal profile with the so called type II quantized blow up rates. The essential feature of these solutions is that all norms below scaling remain bounded. Our analysis fully revisits the construction of type II blow up solutions for the corresponding he…
We consider the Schrödinger equations with arbitrary (large) power non-linearity on the three-dimensional torus. We construct non-trivial probability measures supported on Sobolev spaces and show that the equations are globally well-posed on the supports of these measures, respectively. Moreover, these measures are invariant under the flows that are constructed. Therefore, the constructed solutions are recurrent in time.\\ Also, we show \textit{slow growth} control on the time evolution of the solutions. A generalization to any dimension is given. Our proof relies on a new approach combining t…
We present numerical simulations of the defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation with an energy supercritical nonlinearity. These computations were motivated by recent works of Kenig-Merle and Kilip-Visan who considered some energy supercritical wave equations and proved that if the solution is {a priori} bounded in the critical Sobolev space (i.e. the space whose homogeneous norm is invariant under the scaling leaving the equation invariant), then it exists for all time and scatters. In this paper, we numerically investigate the boundedness of the $H^2$-critical Sobolev norm for soluti…
We prove that for almost every initial data $(u_0,u_1) \in H^s \times H^{s-1}$ with $s > \frac{p-3}{p-1}$ there exists a global weak solution to the supercritical semilinear wave equation $\partial _t^2u - Δu +|u|^{p-1}u=0$ where $p>5$, in both $\mathbb{R}^3$ and $\mathbb{T}^3$. This improves in a probabilistic framework the classical result of Strauss who proved global existence of weak solutions associated to $H^1 \times L^2$ initial data. The proof relies on techniques introduced by T. Oh and O. Pocovnicu based on the pioneer work of N. Burq and N. Tzvetkov. We also improve the global well-…
We prove $H^1$ scattering for defocusing NLS with a delta potential and mass-supercritical nonlinearity, hence extending in an inhomogeneous setting the classical 1-D scattering results first proved by Nakanishi in the translation invariant case.
We study the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation in the $L^2$-supercritical regime with finite energy and finite variance initial data. We investigate solutions above the energy (or mass-energy) threshold. In our first result, we extend the known scattering versus blow-up dichotomy above that threshold for finite variance solutions in the energy-subcritical and energy-critical regimes, obtaining scattering and blow-up criteria for solutions with arbitrarily large mass and energy. As a consequence, we characterize the behavior of the ground state initial data modulated by a quadratic phase.…
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 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.
