This paper studies the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equations,
which may model the propagation of laser beams in nonlinear optics.
Using the cross-constrained variational method, a sharp condition for
global existence is derived. Then, by solving a variational problem, the
strong instability of solitary waves of this equation is proved.
Abstract
In this paper, we study blow-up criteria and instability of normalized standing waves for the fractional Schrödinger-Choquard equation
$$\begin{array}{}
\displaystyle
i\partial_t\psi- (-{\it\Delta})^s \psi+(I_\alpha \ast |\psi|^{p})|\psi|^{p-2}\psi=0.
\end{array}$$
By using localized virial estimates, we firstly establish general blow-up criteria for non-radial solutions in both L2-critical and L2-supercritical cases. Then, we show existence of normalized standing waves by using the profile decomposition theory in Hs. Combining these results, we study the strong instability of normalized standing waves. Our obtained results greatly improve earlier results.
