This paper is concerned with the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an unbounded potential iϕt=−Δϕ+V(x)ϕ−μ|ϕ|p−1ϕ−λ|ϕ|q−1ϕ, x∈ℝN, t≥0, where μ>0, λ>0, and 1<p<q<1+4/N. The potential V(x) is bounded from below and satisfies V(x)→∞ as |x|→∞. From variational calculus and a compactness lemma, the existence of standing waves and their orbital stability are obtained.

We prove existence and orbital stability of standing waves for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation [Formula: see text] concentrating near a possibly degenerate local minimum of the potential V, when the Plank's constant ℏ is small enough. Our method applies to general nonlinearities, including f(s)=sp - 1 with p ∈ (1,1 + 4/N), but does not require uniqueness nor non-degeneracy of the limiting equation.

AbstractIn our work, we establish the existence of standing waves to a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inverse-square potential on the half-line. We apply a profile decomposition argument to overcome the difficulty arising from the non-compactness of the setting. We obtain convergent minimizing sequences by comparing the problem to the problem at “infinity” (i.e., the equation without inverse square potential). Finally, we establish orbital stability/instability of the standing wave solution for mass subcritical and supercritical nonlinearities respectively.
