Conservative finite-difference scheme for the problem of propagation of a femtosecond pulse in a nonlinear photonic crystal with nonreflecting boundary conditions

Conservative finite-difference schemes are constructed for the problems of self-action of a femtosecond laser pulse and of second-harmonic generation in a one-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystal with nonreflecting boundary conditions. The invariants of the governing equations are found taking into account these conditions. Nonreflecting conditions substantially improve the efficiency of conservative finite-difference schemes used in the modeling of complex nonlinear effects in photonic crystals, which require much smaller steps in space and time than those used in the case of linear propagation. The numerical experiments performed show that the boundary reflects no more than 0.01% of the transmitted energy, which corresponds to the truncation error in the boundary conditions. The amplitude of the reflected pulse is less than that of the pulse transmitted through the boundary by two (and more) orders of magnitude. The simulation is based on the approach proposed by the authors for the given class of problems.     

On the Well-Posedness for Stochastic Schr(o)dinger Equations with Quadratic Potential

The authors investigate the influence of a harmonic potential and random perturbations on the nonlinear Schr(o)dinger equations.The local and global well-posedness are proved with values in the space ∑(Rn) =｛f ∈ H1(Rn),｜ · ｜f ∈ L2(Rn)}.When the nonlinearity is focusing and L2-supercritical,the authors give sufficient conditions for the solutions to blow up in finite time for both confining and repulsive potential.Especially for the repulsive case,the solution to the deterministic equation with the initial data satisfying the stochastic blow-up condition will also blow up in finite time.Thus,compared with the deterministic equation for the repulsive case,the blow-up condition is stronger on average,and depends on the regularity of the noise.If φ =0,our results coincide with the ones for the deterministic equation.     

Classification of Positive Ground State Solutions with Different Morse Indices for Nonlinear N-Coupled Schr(o)dinger System

In this paper,we study the following N-coupled nonlinear Schr(o)dinger sys-tem{-△uj+ uj =μju3j + ∑i≠jβi,ju3iuj,in Rn,uj＞0 in Rn,uj(x)→0 as |x|→+∞,j=1,…,N,where n ≤ 3,N ≥ 3,μj ＞ 0,βi,j =βj,i ＞ 0 are constants and βj,j =μj,j =1,…,N.There have been intensive studies for the system on existence/non-existence and clas-sification of ground state solutions when N =2.However fewer results about the classification of ground state solution are available for N ≥ 3.In this paper,we first give a complete classification result on ground state solutions with Morse indices 1,2 or 3 for three-coupled Schr(o)dinger system.Then we generalize our results to N-coupled Schr(o)dinger system for ground state solutions with Morse indices 1 and N.We show that any positive ground state solutions with Morse index 1 or Morse index N must be the form of (d1w,d2w,…,dNw) under suitable conditions,where w is the unique positive ground state solution of certain equation.Finally,we generalize our results to fractional N-coupled Schr(o)dinger system.     

LITTLEWOOD-PALEY THEOREM FOR SCHR DINGER OPERATORS

Let H be a Schrodinger operator on Rn. Under a polynomial decay condition for the kernel of its spectral operator, we show that the Besov spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces associated with H are well defined. We further give a Littlewood-Paley characterization of Lp spaces in terms of dyadic functions of H. This generalizes and strengthens the previous result when the heat kernel of H satisfies certain upper Gaussian bound.     

Break up of bound-N-spatial-soliton in a ramp waveguide

We present an analytical and numerical investigation of the propagation of spatial solitons in a nonlinear waveguide with ramp linear refractive index profile (ramp waveguide). For the propagation of a single soliton beam in a ramp waveguide, the particle theory shows that the soliton beam follows a parabolic curve in the region where the linear refractive index increases and a straight line outside the waveguide. The acceleration of the soliton depends on the beam intensity: higher amplitude solitons experience higher acceleration. Numerical calculations using an implicit Crank-Nicolson scheme confirm the result of the particle theory. Combining these propagation properties with the theory about bound-N-soliton, we study the break up of such a bound-N-soliton in a ramp waveguide. In a ramp waveguide, a bound-N-soliton will always be splitted intoN independent solitons with the higher amplitude soliton emitted first. The amplitude of the separated solitons after break up are calculated using the soliton theory as if the solitons are independent. Numerical simulations show that the results agree quite well with this theoretical prediction, indicating that the interaction during break up has only little influence.

On spectral properties of periodic polyharmonic matrix operators

We consider a matrix operatorH = (-Δ)^l +V inR ⁿ, wheren ≥ 2,l ≥ 1, 4l > n + 1, andV is the operator of multiplication by a periodic inx matrixV(x). We study spectral properties ofH in the high energy region. Asymptotic formulae for Bloch eigenvalues and the corresponding spectral projections are constructed. The Bethe-Sommerfeld conjecture, stating that the spectrum ofH can have only a finite number of gaps, is proved.

On some new spectral estimates for Schrödinger-like operators

We prove the analog of the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum estimate for a wide class of second-order elliptic operators by two different tools: Lieb-Thirring inequalities for Schrödinger operators with matrix-valued potentials and Sobolev inequalities for warped product spaces.
