We prove global wellposedness in the energy space of the defocusing cubic nonlinear Schroedinger and Gross-Pitaevskii equations on the exterior of a non-trapping domain in dimension 3. The main ingredient is a Strichartz estimate obtained combining a semi-classical Strichartz estimate with a smoothing effect on exterior domains.
In this paper we prove that the non-linear Fourier transform of the defocusing NLS equation on the circle is linear up to terms which are one order smoother.
In this short note we present a new proof of the global well-posedness and scattering result for the defocusing energy-critical NLS in four space dimensions obtained previously by Ryckman and Visan. The argument is inspired by the recent work of Dodson on the mass-critical NLS.
In this paper we prove approximation properties of the solutions of the defoucsing NLS equation on the circle by nearly linear flows. In addition we show that spatially periodic solutions of the defocusing NLS equation evolving in fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s$ with $s\geq 1$ remain bounded for all times.
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 prove $H^{1}$ scattering for a defocusing NLS on the line with fully variable coefficients. The result is proved by adapting the Kenig--Merle scheme to a non translation invariant setting. In addition, we give an abstract version of the scheme which can be applied to other operators.
We prove the existence and the invariance of a Gibbs measure associated to the defocusing sub-quintic Nonlinear Schroedinger equations on the disc of the plane $\R^2$. We also prove an estimate giving some intuition to what may happen in 3 dimensions.
In this article, we study long time dynamics for defocusing cubic NLS on three dimensional product space. First, we apply the decoupling method in Bourgain-Demeter \cite{BD} to establish a bilinear Strichartz estimate. Moreover, we prove global well-posedness for defocusing, cubic NLS on three dimensional product space with rough initial data ($H^s$, $s>\frac{5}{6}$) based on I-method and the bilinear estimate. At last, we discuss the growth of higher Sobolev norm problem which is tightly linked to the weak turbulence phenomenon.
We prove global well-posedness and scattering for the defocusing, cubic NLS on $\mathbb{R}^3$ with initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^3)$ for $s>49/74$. The proof combines the ideas of resonance decomposition in \cite{CKSTT4} and linear-nonlinear decomposition in \cite{ben1}\cite{roy} together with the idea of large time iteration.
The energy-critical defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on 3-dimensional rectangular tori is considered. We prove that the global well-posedness result for the standard torus of Ionescu and Pausader extends to this class of manifolds, namely, for any initial data in $H^1$ the solution exists globally in time.
In a case study for integrable PDEs, we construct real analytic, canonical coordinates for the defocusing NLS equation on the circle, specifically taylored towards the needs in perturbation theory. They are defined in neighbourhoods of families of finite dimensional invariant tori and are shown to satisfy together with their derivatives tame estimates. When expressed in these coordinates, the dNLS Hamiltonian is in normal form up to order three.
Combining the usual energy functional with a higher-order conserved quantity originating from integrability theory, we show that the black soliton is a local minimizer of a quantity that is conserved along the flow of the cubic defocusing NLS equation in one space dimension. This unconstrained variational characterization gives an elementary proof of the orbital stability of the black soliton with respect to perturbations in $H^2(\mathbb{R})$.
In this paper we prove global well-posedness in $H^1$ for the energy-critical defocusing initial-value problem \begin{equation*} (i\partial_t+Δ_x)u=u|u|^2,\qquad u(0)=ϕ, \end{equation*} in the semiperiodic setting $x\in\R\times\T^3$.
We consider the defocusing energy-critical NLS in the exterior of the unit ball in three dimensions. For the initial value problem with Dirichlet boundary condition we prove global well-posedness and scattering with large radial initial data in the Sobolev space $\dot H_0^1$. We also point out that the same strategy can be used to treat the energy-supercritical NLS in the exterior of balls with Dirichlet boundary condition and radial $\dot H_0^1$ initial data.
The defocusing NLS-equation $\mathrm{i} u_t = -u_{xx} + 2|u|^2u$ on the circle admits a global nonlinear Fourier transform, also known as Birkhoff map, linearising the NLS-flow. The regularity properties of $u$ are known to be closely related to the decay properties of the corresponding nonlinear Fourier coefficients. In this paper we quantify this relationship by providing two sided polynomial estimates of all integer Sobolev norms $\|u\|_m$, $m\ge 0$, in terms of the weighted norms of the nonlinear Fourier transformed.
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 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.
We consider the defocusing $\dot{H}^{1/2}$-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in dimensions $d\geq 5$. In the spirit of Kenig and Merle [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 362 (2010), 1937--1962], we combine a concentration-compactness approach with the Lin--Strauss Morawetz inequality to prove that if a solution $u$ is bounded in $\dot{H}^{1/2}$ throughout its lifespan, then $u$ is global and scatters.
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.
Periodic waves of the one-dimensional cubic defocusing NLS equation are considered. Using tools from integrability theory, these waves have been shown in [Bottman, Deconinck, and Nivala, 2011] to be linearly stable and the Floquet-Bloch spectrum of the linearized operator has been explicitly computed. We combine here the first four conserved quantities of the NLS equation to give a direct proof that cnoidal periodic waves are orbitally stable with respect to subharmonic perturbations, with period equal to an integer multiple of the period of the wave. Our result is not restricted to the period…
We prove that the scattering operators and wave operators are well-defined in the energy space for the system of defocusing Schrödinger equations $$ \begin{cases} i\partial_t u_μ+ Δu_μ- \sum_{μ,ν=1 }^N β_{μν}|u_ν|^{p+1}|u_μ|^{p-1}u_μ=0, \quad\quad μ=1,\dots,N,\\(u_μ(0,\cdot))_{μ=1}^N= (u_{μ,0})_{μ=1}^N \in H^1(\mathbb R^d)^N. \end{cases} $$ with $N\geq 2$, $β_{μν} \geq 0$, $β_{μμ}\neq 0$ for $p>2 $ if $d=1$, $p>1 $ if $d=2$ and $ 1 \leq p < 2$ if $d=3$.
We show global wellposedness for the defocusing cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) in $H^1(\mathbb{R}) + H^{3/2+}(\mathbb{T})$, and for the defocusing NLS with polynomial nonlinearities in $H^1(\mathbb{R}) + H^{5/2+}(\mathbb{T})$. This complements local results for the cubic NLS and global results for the quadratic NLS in this hybrid setting.
In this paper, we study the critical norm conjecture for the inter-critical nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equation with critical index $s_c$ satisfying $\frac{1}{2}<s_c<1$ when $d\geq 5$. Under the assumption of uniform boundedness of the critical norm, we prove the global well-posedness and scattering for the Cauchy problem. We follow the standard `Concentration compactness/Rigidity method' established in \cite{KenigMerle1,KenigMerle2}, and treat three scenarios for the critical element respectively. Moreover, double Duhamel method and interaction Morawetz estimate are applied to exclude the critic…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) on the real line with a special subclass of almost periodic functions as initial data. In particular, we prove global existence of solutions to NLS with limit periodic functions as initial data under some regularity assumption.
We show that if a solution of the defocusing cubic NLS in 3d remains bounded in the homogeneous Sobolev norm of order 1/2 in its maximal interval of existence, then the interval is infinite and the solution scatters. No radial assumption is made.
In this paper, using $I$-method, we establish $H^s_x\times H^s_x$ scattering theories for the following Cauchy problem \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{lll} iu_t+Δu=λ|v|^2u,\quad iv_t+Δv=μ|u|^2v,\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^3,\ t>0,\\ u(x,0)=u_0(x),\quad v(x,0)=v_0(x),\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^3. \end{array}\right. \end{equation*} Here $λ>0$, $μ>0$, $(u_0,v_0)\in H^s_x(\mathbb{R}^3)\times H^s_x(\mathbb{R}^3)$ and $\frac{1}{2}<s<1$.
We study the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an inverse-square potential in dimensions $3\leq d \leq 6$. We consider both focusing and defocusing nonlinearities in the mass-supercritical and energy-subcritical regime. In the focusing case, we prove a scattering/blowup dichotomy below the ground state. In the defocusing case, we prove scattering in $H^1$ for arbitrary data.
We consider the cubic and quintic Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) hierarchies in $d\geq1$ dimensions, for focusing and defocusing interactions. We present a new proof of existence of solutions that does not require the a priori bound on the spacetime norm, which was introduced in the work of Klainerman and Machedon, \cite{klma}, and used in our earlier work, \cite{chpa2}.
Painlevé \uppercase\expandafter{\romannumeral34\relax} and collisionless shock in the defocusing NLS equation with step-like initial data in the transition regions
We prove global well-posedness for the L^{2}-critical cubic defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on R^{2} with data u_{0} \in H^{s}(R^{2}) for s > {1/3}.
In the article, we prove the large data scattering for two problems, i.e. the defocusing quintic nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^2$ $\times$ $\mathbb{T}$ and the defocusing cubic nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^3$ $\times$ $\mathbb{T}$. Both of the two equations are mass supercritical and energy critical. The main ingredients of the proofs contain global Stricharz estimate, profile decomposition and energy induction method. This paper is the second project of our series work (two papers, together with [36]) on large data scattering for the defocusing critical NL…
In this paper we study the cubic fractional nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) on the torus and on the real line. Combining the normal form and the restricted norm methods we prove that the nonlinear part of the solution is smoother than the initial data. Our method applies to both focusing and defocusing nonlinearities. In the case of full dispersion (NLS) and on the torus, the gain is a full derivative, while on the real line we get a derivative smoothing with an $ε$ loss. Our result lowers the regularity requirement of a recent theorem of Kappeler et al. on the periodic defocusing cubic N…
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.
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 the 2-d setting, given an $H^1$ solution $v(t)$ to the linear Schrödinger equation $i\partial_t v +Δv =0$, we prove the existence (but not uniqueness) of an $H^1$ solution $u(t)$ to the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation $i\partial_t u + Δu -|u|^{p-1}u=0$ for nonlinear powers $2<p<3$ and the existence of an $H^1$ solution $u(t)$ to the defocusing Hartree equation $i\partial_t u + Δu -(|x|^{-γ}\star|u|^{2})u=0$ for interaction powers $1<γ<2$, such that $\|u(t)-v(t)\|_{H^1} \to 0$ as $t\to +\infty$. This is a partial result toward the existence of well-defined continuous wave ope…
We consider solutions of the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation on the half-line whose Dirichlet and Neumann boundary values become periodic for sufficiently large $t$. We prove a theorem which, modulo certain assumptions, characterizes the pairs of periodic functions which can arise as Dirichlet and Neumann values for large $t$ in this way. The theorem also provides a constructive way of determining explicit solutions with the given periodic boundary values. Hence our approach leads to a class of new exact solutions of the defocusing NLS equation on the half-line.
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 show that in the presence of a rough external potential, a 3d cubic defocusing NLS is globally well-posed in H^s for s>5/6. The proof is based on the approach of Colliander-Keel-Staffilani-Takaoka-Tao, called the I-method, but in order to deal with a rough potential, we modify harmonic analysis tools by spectral theory.
We consider the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inverse-square potential $iu_t = -Δu + a|x|^{-2}u + |u|^4u$ in three space dimensions. We prove global well-posedness and scattering for $a>-\frac14 +\frac1{25}$. We also carry out the variational analysis needed to treat the focusing case.
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 prove the scattering for a defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a sum of two repulsive potentials with strictly convex level surfaces, thus providing a scattering result in a trapped setting similar to the exterior of two strictly convex obstacles.
We consider the dynamical Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) hierarchy on $\R^d$, $d\geq1$, for cubic, quintic, focusing and defocusing interactions. For both the focusing and defocusing case, and any $d\geq1$, we prove local existence and uniqueness of solutions in certain Sobolev type spaces $\cH_ξ^α$ of sequences of marginal density matrices. The regularity is accounted for by $α>\frac12& if $d=1$, $α>\frac d2-\frac{1}{2(p-1)} $ if $d\geq2$ and $(d,p)\neq(3,2)$, and $α\geq1$ if $(d,p)=(3,2)$, where $p=2$ for the cubic, and $p=4$ for the quintic GP hierarchy; the parameter $ξ>0$ is arbitrary and determin…
We show robustness of various truncated and subcritical approximations to the stochastic defocusing mass-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) in dimension $d=1$, whose solution was constructed in [FX18] with one particular such approximation. The key ingredient in the proof is a uniform bound of the solutions to the family of deterministic mass-subcritical defocusing NLS.
We consider the cubic Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation in one space dimension, either focusing or defocusing. We prove that the solutions satisfy a-priori local in time H^s bounds in terms of the H^s size of the initial data for s greater than or equal to -1/6.
We consider the following family of Cauchy problems: {equation*} i\partial_t u= Δu - u|u|^α, (t,x) \in \R \times \R^d {equation*} $$u(0)=φ\in H^1(\R^d)$$ where $0<α<\frac 4{d-2}$ for $d\geq 3$ and $0<α<\infty$ for $d=1,2$. We prove that the $L^r$-norms of the solutions decay as $t\to \pm \infty$, provided that $2<r<\frac{2d}{d-2}$ when $d\geq 3$ and $2<r<\infty$ when $d=1,2$. In particular we extend previous results obtained by Ginibre and Velo for $d\geq 3$ and by Nakanishi for $d=1,2$, where the same decay results are proved under the extra assumption $α>\frac 4d$.
