    Construction of a solution for the two-component radial Gross-Pitaevskii system with a large coupling parameter

    Full text link
    We consider strongly coupled competitive elliptic systems that arise in the study of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates. As the coupling parameter tends to infinity, solutions that remain uniformly bounded are known to converge to a segregated limiting profile, with the difference of its components satisfying a limit scalar PDE. In the case of radial symmetry, under natural non-degeneracy assumptions on a solution of the limit problem, we establish by a perturbation argument its persistence as a solution to the elliptic system

    In this paper, we study nonlinear Helmholtz equations (NLH) −ΔHNu−(N−1)24u−λ2u=Γ∣u∣p−2u-\Delta_{\mathbb{H}^N} u - \frac{(N-1)^2}{4} u -\lambda^2 u = \Gamma|u|^{p-2}u in HN\mathbb{H}^N, N≥2N\geq 2 where ΔHN\Delta_{\mathbb{H}^N} denotes the Laplace-Beltrami operator in the hyperbolic space HN\mathbb{H}^N and Γ∈L∞(HN)\Gamma\in L^\infty(\mathbb{H}^N) is chosen suitably. Using fixed point and variational techniques, we find nontrivial solutions to (NLH) for all λ>0\lambda>0 and p>2p>2. The oscillatory behaviour and decay rates of radial solutions is analyzed, with possible extensions to Cartan-Hadamard manifolds and Damek-Ricci spaces. Our results rely on a new Limiting Absorption Principle for the Helmholtz operator in HN\mathbb{H}^N. As a byproduct, we obtain simple counterexamples to certain Strichartz estimates

    summary:We consider strongly coupled competitive elliptic systems that arise in the study of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates. As the coupling parameter tends to infinity, solutions that remain uniformly bounded are known to converge to a segregated limiting profile, with the difference of its components satisfying a limit scalar PDE. In the case of radial symmetry, under natural non-degeneracy assumptions on a solution of the limit problem, we establish by a perturbation argument its persistence as a solution to the elliptic system

    Hidden dissipation and convexity for Kimura equations

    Full text link
    In this paper we establish a rigorous gradient flow structure for one-dimensional Kimura equations with respect to some Wasserstein-Shahshahani optimal transport geometry. This is achieved by first conditioning the underlying stochastic process to non-fixation in order to get rid of singularities on the boundaries, and then studying the conditioned QQ-process from a more traditional and variational point of view. In doing so we complete the work initiated in [Chalub et Al., Gradient flow formulations of discrete and continuous evolutionary models: a unifying perspective. Acta App Math., 171(1), 1-50], where the gradient flow was identified only formally. The approach is based on the Energy Dissipation Inequality and Evolution Variational Inequality notions of metric gradient flows. Building up on some convexity of the driving entropy functional, we obtain new contraction estimates and quantitative long-time convergence towards the stationary distribution

    Trivariate distribution of sticky Brownian motion

    Full text link
    In this short note we derive a closed form for the trivariate distribution (position, local time at the origin, and positive occupation time) of the one-dimensional sticky Brownian motion, thereby filling some gaps and fixing some mistakes in the literature

    Singular radial solutions for the Lin-Ni-Takagi equation

    Get PDF
    We study singular radially symmetric solution to the Lin-Ni-Takagi equation for a supercritical power non-linearity in dimension N >= 3. It is shown that for any ball and any k >= 0, there is a singular solution that satisfies Neumann boundary condition and oscillates at leastktimes around the constant equilibrium. Moreover, we show that the Morse index of the singular solution is finite or infinite if the exponent is respectively larger or smaller than the Joseph-Lundgren exponent.Peer reviewe
