We consider the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation of up to three space dimensions. The cubic nonlinearity is thereby focusing while the quintic one is defocusing, ensuring global well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in the energy space. The main goal of this paper is to investigate the interplay between dispersion and orbital (in-)stability of solitary waves. In space dimension one, it is already known that all solitons are orbitally stable. In dimension two, we show that if the initial data belong to the conformal space, and have at most the mass of the ground state of the cubic two-dimensional Schrödinger equation, then the solution is asymptotically linear. For larger mass, solitary wave solutions exist, and we review several results on their stability. Finally, in dimension three, relying on previous results from other authors, we show that solitons may or may not be orbitally stable.

AbstractWe consider the Cauchy problem for the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one space dimensionCubic type nonlinearities in one space dimension heuristically appear to be critical for large time. We study the global existence and large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem (1). We prove that if the initial data are small and such that for some n ∈ Z, and , then the solution has an additional logarithmic timedecay in the short range region . In the far region the asymptotics have a quasilinear character.

We consider the orbital stability of solitary waves to the double dispersion equation utt−uxx+h1uxxxx−h2uttxx+f(u)xx=0,h1>0,h2>0 with combined power-type nonlinearity f(u)=a|u|pu+b|u|2pu,p>0,a∈R,b∈R,b≠0. The stability of solitary waves with velocity c, c2<1 is proved by means of the Grillakis, Shatah, and Strauss abstract theory and the convexity of the function d(c), related to some conservation laws. We derive explicit analytical formulas for the function d(c) and its second derivative for quadratic-cubic nonlinearity f(u)=au2+bu3 and parameters b>0, c2∈0,min1,h1h2. As a consequence, the orbital stability of solitary waves is analyzed depending on the parameters of the problem. Well-known results are generalized in the case of a single cubic nonlinearity f(u)=bu3.

In space dimension n ≥ 3, we consider the magnetic Schrödinger Hamiltonian H = -(∇ - iA(x))2and the corresponding Schrödinger equation [Formula: see text] We show some explicit examples of potentials A, with less than Coulomb decay, for which any solution of this equation cannot satisfy Strichartz estimates, in the whole range of Schrödinger admissibility.

We give a proof of the existence of stationary bright soliton solutions of the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inhomogeneous nonlinearity. By using bifurcation theory, we prove that the norm of the positive solution goes to zero as the parameterλ, called chemical potential in the Bose-Einstein condensates' literature, tends to zero. Moreover, we solve the time-dependent cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with inhomogeneous nonlinearities by using a numerical method.
