Dynamics of Nonlinear Schrödinger /Gross-Pitaevskii Equations; Mass Transfer in Systems with Solitons and Degenerate Neutral Modes

چکیده
Nonlinear Schrödinger / Gross-Pitaevskii equations play a central role in the understanding of nonlinear optical and macroscopic quantum systems. The large time dynamics of such systems is governed by interactions of the nonlinear ground state manifold, discrete neutral modes (“excited states”) and dispersive radiation. Systems with symmetry, in spatial dimensions larger than one, typically have degenerate neutral modes. Thus, we study the large time dynamics of systems with degenerate neutral modes. This requires a new normal form ( nonlinear matrix Fermi Golden Rule) governing the system’s large time asymptotic relaxation to the ground state (soliton) manifold.

Long Time Dynamics near the Symmetry Breaking Bifurcation for Nonlinear Schrödinger/gross-pitaevskii Equations
Abstract. We consider a class nonlinear Schrödinger / Gross-Pitaevskii equations (NLS/GP) with a focusing (attractive) nonlinear potential and symmetric double well linear potential. NLS/GP plays a central role in the modeling of nonlinear optical and mean-field quantum many-body phenomena. It is known that there is a critical L norm (optical power / particle number) at which there is a symmetr...
متن کاملTraveling waves for the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with general nonlinearity in dimension one
We study the traveling waves of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation in dimension one. Through various model cases, we show that for nonlinearities having the same qualitative behaviour as the standard Gross-Pitaevkii one, the traveling waves may have rather different properties. In particular, our examples exhibit multiplicity or nonexistence results, cusps (as for the Jones-Roberts curve in the...
متن کاملCoupled Mode Equations and Gap Solitons for the 2D Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a non-separable periodic potential
Gap solitons near a band edge of a spatially periodic nonlinear PDE can be formally approximated by solutions of Coupled Mode Equations (CMEs). Here we study this approximation for the case of the 2D Periodic Nonlinear Schrödinger / Gross-Pitaevskii Equation with a non-separable potential of finite contrast. We show that unlike in the case of separable potentials [T. Dohnal, D. Pelinovsky, and ...
متن کاملThe Transient Dynamics of a Beam Mounted on Spring Supports and Equipped with the Nonlinear Energy Sink
The transient dynamics of a beam mounted on springer-damper support and equipped with a nonlinear energy sink (NES) is investigated under the effects of shock loads. The equations of motion are derived using the Hamilton’s principle leading to four hybrid ordinary and partial differential equations and descritized using the Galerkin method. An adaptive Newmark method is employed for accurate an...
متن کاملOn stable solitons and interactions of the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii equation with PT- and non- PT-symmetric potentials.
We report the bright solitons of the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation with some types of physically relevant parity-time- ( PT-) and non- PT-symmetric potentials. We find that the constant momentum coefficient Γ can modulate the linear stability and complicated transverse power-flows (not always from the gain toward loss) of nonlinear modes. However, the varying momentum coefficient Γ...
