Strichartz estimates for the magnetic Schrödinger equation

We prove global, scale invariant Strichartz estimates for the linear magnetic Schrödinger equation with small time dependent magnetic field. This is done by constructing an appropriate parametrix. As an application, we show a global regularity type result for Schrödinger maps in dimensions n?6.

Simultaneous local exact controllability of 1D bilinear Schrödinger equations

We consider N independent quantum particles, in an infinite square potential well coupled to an external laser field. These particles are modelled by a system of linear Schrödinger equations on a bounded interval. This is a bilinear control system in which the state is the N  -tuple of wave functions. The control is the real amplitude of the laser field. For N=1$N=1$, Beauchard and Laurent proved local exact controllability around the ground state in arbitrary time. We prove, under an extra generic assumption, that their result does not hold in small time if N?2$N?2$. Still, for N=2$N=2$, we prove that local controllability holds either in arbitrary time up to a global phase or exactly up to a global delay. This is proved using Coron's return method. We also prove that for N?3$N?3$, local controllability does not hold in small time even up to a global phase. Finally, for N=3$N=3$, we prove that local controllability holds up to a global phase and a global delay.     

Well-posedness of the fourth-order perturbed Schrödinger type equation in non-isotropic Sobolev spaces

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem of the non-isotropically perturbed fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger type equation: ((x₁,x₂,…,xn)∈Rn, t?0), where a is a real constant, 1?d<n is an integer, g(x,|u|)u is a nonlinear function which behaves like α|u|u for some constant α>0. By using Kato method, we prove that this perturbed fourth-order Schrödinger type equation is locally well-posed with initial data belonging to the non-isotropic Sobolev spaces provided that s₁,s₂ satisfy the conditions: s₁?0, s₂?0 for or for with some additional conditions. Furthermore, by using non-isotropic Sobolev inequality and energy method, we obtain some global well-posedness results for initial data belonging to non-isotropic Sobolev spaces .     

Endpoint Strichartz estimates for the magnetic Schrödinger equation

We prove Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger equation with an electromagnetic potential, in dimension n?3. The decay and regularity assumptions on the potentials are almost critical, i.e., close to the Coulomb case. In addition, we require repulsivity and a nontrapping condition, which are expressed as smallness of suitable components of the potentials, while the potentials themselves can be large. The proof is based on smoothing estimates and new Sobolev embeddings for spaces associated to magnetic potentials.     

Spike solutions of a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with degenerate potential

We study the existence of positive solutions to the elliptic equation ε²Δu(x,y)−V(y)u(x,y)+f(u(x,y))=0 for (x,y) in an unbounded domain subject to the boundary condition u=0 whenever is nonempty. Our potential V depends only on the y variable and is a bounded or unbounded domain which may coincide with . The positive parameter ε is tending to zero and our solutions u_ε concentrate along minimum points of the unbounded manifold of critical points of V.     

An optimal control problem for two-dimensional Schrödinger equation

In this paper we consider an optimal control problem controlled by three functions which are in the coefficients of a two-dimensional Schrödinger equation. After proving the existence and uniqueness of the optimal solution, we get the Frechet differentiability of the cost functional using Hamilton-Pontryagin function. Then we state a necessary condition to an optimal solution in the variational inequality form using the gradient.     

Exact solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation by the first integral method

The first integral method is an efficient method for obtaining exact solutions of some nonlinear partial differential equations. This method can be applied to nonintegrable equations as well as to integrable ones. In this paper, the first integral method is used to construct exact solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.     

Some new Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger equation

We deal with fixed-time and Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger propagator as an operator on Wiener amalgam spaces. We discuss the sharpness of the known estimates and we provide some new estimates which generalize the classical ones. As an application, we present a result on the wellposedness of the linear Schrödinger equation with a rough time-dependent potential.

Exact solutions to nonlinear Schrödinger equation with variable coefficients

According to Ma-Fuchsseiter’s idea, a trial equation method was proposed to find the exact envelop traveling wave solutions to some nonlinear differential equations with variable coefficients. As an application, combining with the complete discrimination system for polynomial, some exact envelop traveling wave solutions to Schrödinger equation with variable coefficients were obtained. At the same time, the physical meanings of the obtained solutions are discussed, and the problem needed to further study is pointed out.

Evolution of solitary waves for a perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Soliton perturbation theory is used to determine the evolution of a solitary wave described by a perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Perturbation terms, which model wide classes of physically relevant perturbations, are considered. An analytical solution is found for the first-order correction of the evolving solitary wave. This solution for the solitary wave tail is in integral form and an explicit expression is found, for large time. Singularity theory, usually used for combustion problems, is applied to the large time expression for the solitary wave tail. Analytical results are obtained, such as the parameter regions in which qualitatively different types of solitary wave tails occur, the location of zeros and the location and amplitude of peaks, in the solitary wave tail. Two examples, the near-continuum limit of a discrete NLS equation and an explicit numerical scheme for the NLS equation, are considered in detail. For the discrete NLS equation it is found that three qualitatively different types of solitary wave tail can occur, while for the explicit finite-difference scheme, only one type of solitary wave tail occurs. An excellent comparison between the perturbation solution and numerical simulations, for the solitary wave tail, is found for both examples.
