On the fractional Schrödinger problem with non‐symmetric potential

We study the semilinear equation where 0 < s < 1, , V(x) is a sufficiently smooth non‐symmetric potential with , and ? > 0 is a small number. Letting U be the radial ground state of (?Δ)^sU + U ? U^p=0 in , we build solutions of the form for points ?_j,j = 1,?,m, using a Lyapunov–Schmidt variational reduction. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A Fokas approach to the coupled modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the half‐line

In this work, we discuss the coupled modified nonlinear Schrödinger (CMNLS) equation, which describe the pulse propagation in the picosecond or femtosecond regime of the birefringent optical fibers. By use of the Fokas approach, the initial‐boundary value problem for the CMNLS equation related to a 3×3 matrix Lax pair on the half‐line is to be analyzed. Assuming that the solution {u(x,t),v(x,t)} of CMNLS equation exists, we will prove that it can be expressed in terms of the unique solution of a 3×3 matrix Riemann‐Hilbert problem formulated in the plane of the complex spectral parameter λ. Moreover, we also get that some spectral functions s(λ) and S(λ) are not independent of each other but meet a global relationship.     

Dressing the boundary: On soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the half‐line

Based on the theory of integrable boundary conditions (BCs) developed by Sklyanin, we provide a direct method for computing soliton solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the half‐line. The integrable BCs at the origin are represented by constraints of the Lax pair, and our method lies on dressing the Lax pair by preserving those constraints in the Darboux‐dressing process. The method is applied to two classes of solutions: solitons vanishing at infinity and self‐modulated solitons on a constant background. Half‐line solitons in both cases are explicitly computed. In particular, the boundary‐bound solitons, which are static solitons bounded at the origin, are also constructed. We give a natural inverse scattering transform interpretation of the method as evolution of the scattering data determined by the integrable BCs in space.     

Remarks on global existence for the supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a harmonic potential

This paper is concerned with the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a harmonic potential which describes the attractive Bose–Einstein condensate under the magnetic trap. By combining the best constant of Gagliardo–Nirenberg's inequality with the characteristic of this equation, we derive out a global existence condition for the supercritical equation which coincides with the critical case.     

Sharp upper and lower bounds on the blow-up rate for nonlinear Schrödinger equation with potential

We consider the blow-up solutions of the Cauchy problem for critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a repulsive harmonic potential. In terms of Merle and Raphaël’s recent arguments as well as Carles’ transform, the sharp upper and lower bounds of the blow-up rate are obtained.

On concentration of solution to a Schrödinger logarithmic equation with deepening potential well

In this work, we prove the existence of positive solution for the following class of problems where λ>0 and is a potential satisfying some conditions. Using the variational method developed by Szulkin for functionals, which are the sum of a C¹ functional with a convex lower semicontinuous functional, we prove that for each large enough λ>0, there exists a positive solution for the problem, and that, as λ→+∞, such solutions converge to a positive solution of the limit problem defined on the domain Ω=int(V^?1({0})).     

Construction of high‐energy solutions for the supercritical biharmonic Schrödinger equation

We consider the problem Δ²u = V(x)u^{p + ?} in with u,Δu→0 as |x|→ + ∞, where , N ≥ 5, V is a positive continuous potential. Our aim is to construct high‐energy solutions for this equation by applying the finite‐dimensional reduction method and the penalization method.     

Multiplicity and symmetry results for a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with non‐local regional diffusion

In this paper, we are interested in the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with non‐local regional diffusion (1) where 0 < α < 1 and is a variational version of the regional Laplacian, whose range of scope is a ball with radius ρ(x) > 0. The novelty of this paper is that, assuming f is of subquadratic growth as |u|→+∞, we show that 1 possesses infinitely many solutions via the genus properties in critical point theory. Furthermore, if f(x,u) = γa(x)|u|^{γ ? 1}, where is a nonincreasing radially symmetric function, then the solution of 1 is radially symmetric. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
