Variational problems for the system of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with derivative nonlinearities

Abstract

We consider the Cauchy problem of the system of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with derivative nonlinearlity. This system was introduced by Colin-Colin (2004) as a model of laser-plasma interactions. We study existence of ground state solutions and the global well-posedness of this system by using the variational methods. We also consider the stability of traveling waves for this system. These problems are proposed by Colin-Colin as the open problems. We give a subset of the ground-states set which satisfies the condition of stability. In particular, we prove the stability of the set of traveling waves with small speed for $1$-dimension.Comment: Introduction is modified and references are update
