On decay of solutions to nonlinear Schrödinger equations

We present general results on exponential decay of finite energy solutions to stationary nonlinear Schrödinger equations. Under certain natural assumptions we show that any such solution is continuous and vanishes at infinity. This allows us to interpret the solution as a finite multiplicity eigenfunction of a certain linear Schrödinger operator and, hence, apply well-known results on the decay of eigenfunctions.

     

Ill-posedness for the derivative Schrödinger and generalized Benjamin-Ono equations

Ill-posedness is established for the initial value problem (IVP) associated to the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation for data in , . This result implies that best result concerning local well-posedness for the IVP is in . It is also shown that the (IVP) associated to the generalized Benjamin-Ono equation for data below the scaling is in fact ill-posed.

     

Remark on well-posedness for the fourth order nonlinear Schrödinger type equation

Discrete absorbing boundary conditions for Schrödinger-type equations. Practical implementation

Recently, some absorbing boundary conditions for Schrödinger-type equations have been studied by Fevens, Jiang and Alonso-Mallo, and Reguera. These conditions make it possible to obtain a very high absorption at the boundary avoiding the nonlocality of transparent boundary conditions. However, the implementations used in the literature, where the boundary condition is chosen in a manual way in accordance with the solution or fixed independently of the solution, are not practical because of the small absorption. In this paper, a new practical adaptive implementation is developed that allows us to obtain automatically a very high absorption.

Stable manifolds for all monic supercritical focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations in one dimension

Standing wave solutions of the one-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation

with are well known to be unstable. In this paper we show that asymptotic stability can be achieved provided the perturbations of these standing waves are small and chosen to belong to a codimension one Lipschitz surface. Thus, we construct codimension one asymptotically stable manifolds for all supercritical NLS in one dimension. The considerably more difficult -critical case, for which one wishes to understand the conditional stability of the pseudo-conformal blow-up solutions, is studied in the authors' companion paper Non-generic blow-up solutions for the critical focusing NLS in 1-d, preprint, 2005.

On splitting methods for Schrödinger-Poisson and cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equations

We give an error analysis of Strang-type splitting integrators for nonlinear Schrödinger equations. For Schrödinger-Poisson equations with an -regular solution, a first-order error bound in the norm is shown and used to derive a second-order error bound in the norm. For the cubic Schrödinger equation with an -regular solution, first-order convergence in the norm is used to obtain second-order convergence in the norm. Basic tools in the error analysis are Lie-commutator bounds for estimating the local error and -conditional stability for error propagation, where for the Schrödinger-Poisson system and for the cubic Schrödinger equation.

Smoothness of and continuity of () are studied where is in each space of Sobolev type, and results similar to Sobolev's lemma are obtained. The proofs are carried out based on a generalization of the Fourier transform. The results are applied to the Schrödinger equation.

Stroboscopic averaging of highly oscillatory nonlinear wave equations

In this paper, we are concerned with stroboscopic averaging for highly oscillatory evolution equations posed in a Banach space. Using Taylor expansion, we construct a non‐oscillatory high‐order system whose solution remains exponentially close to the exact one over a long time. We then apply this result to the nonlinear wave equation in one dimension. We present the stroboscopic averaging method, which is a numerical method introduced by Chartier, Murua and Sanz‐Serna, and apply it to our problem. Finally, we conclude by presenting the qualitative and quantitative efficiency of this numerical method for some nonlinear wave problem. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

On a sharp lower bound on the blow-up rate for the critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We consider the critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with initial condition in the energy space and study the dynamics of finite time blow-up solutions. In an earlier sequence of papers, the authors established for a certain class of initial data on the basis of dispersive properties in a sharp and stable upper bound on the blow-up rate: .

In an earlier paper, the authors then addressed the question of a lower bound on the blow-up rate and proved for this class of initial data the nonexistence of self-similar solutions, that is,

In this paper, we prove the sharp lower bound

by exhibiting the dispersive structure in the scaling invariant space for this log-log regime. In addition, we will extend to the pure energy space a dynamical characterization of the solitons among the zero energy solutions.
