Spectral stability analysis for solitary waves is developed in the context of the Hamiltonian system of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The linear eigenvalue problem for a non–self–adjoint operator is studied with two self–adjoint matrix Schrödinger operators. Sharp bounds on the number and type of unstable eigenvalues in the spectral problem are found from the inertia law for quadratic forms, associated with the two self–adjoint operators. Symmetry–breaking stability analysis is also developed with the same method.

AbstractThe paper deals with the equation $$-\Delta u+a(x) u =|u|^{p-1}u $$ - Δ u + a ( x ) u = | u | p - 1 u , $$u \in H^1({\mathbb {R}}^N)$$ u ∈ H 1 ( R N ) , with $$N\ge 2$$ N ≥ 2 , $$p> 1,\ p< {N+2\over N-2}$$ p > 1 , p < N + 2 N - 2 if $$N\ge 3$$ N ≥ 3 , $$a\in L^{N/2}_{loc}({\mathbb {R}}^N)$$ a ∈ L loc N / 2 ( R N ) , $$\inf a> 0$$ inf a > 0 , $$\lim _{|x| \rightarrow \infty } a(x)= a_\infty $$ lim | x | → ∞ a ( x ) = a ∞ . Assuming that the potential a(x) satisfies $$\lim _{|x| \rightarrow \infty }[a(x)-a_\infty ] e^{\eta |x|}= \infty \ \ \forall \eta > 0$$ lim | x | → ∞ [ a ( x ) - a ∞ ] e η | x | = ∞ ∀ η > 0 , $$ \lim _{\rho \rightarrow \infty } \sup \left\{ a(\rho \theta _1) - a(\rho \theta _2) \ :\ \theta _1, \theta _2 \in {\mathbb {R}}^N,\ |\theta _1|= |\theta _2|=1 \right\} e^{\tilde{\eta }\rho } = 0 \quad \text{ for } \text{ some } \ \tilde{\eta }> 0$$ lim ρ → ∞ sup a ( ρ θ 1 ) - a ( ρ θ 2 ) : θ 1 , θ 2 ∈ R N , | θ 1 | = | θ 2 | = 1 e η ~ ρ = 0 for some η ~ > 0 and other technical conditions, but not requiring any symmetry, the existence of infinitely many positive multi-bump solutions is proved. This result considerably improves those of previous papers because we do not require that a(x) has radial symmetry, or that $$N=2$$ N = 2 , or that $$|a(x)-a_\infty |$$ | a ( x ) - a ∞ | is uniformly small in $${\mathbb {R}}^N$$ R N , etc. ....

In this paper, by using the gauge transformation and the Lax pairs, the N-fold Darboux transformation (DT) of the classical three-component nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations is given. In addition, by taking seed solutions and using the DT, exact solutions for the given NLS equations are constructed.
