Resonant Solutions of the Non-linear Schroedinger Equation with Periodic Potential

A. Duaibes, Yu. Karpeshina

TL;DR

The work develops a high-energy perturbation framework for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a periodic potential in two dimensions, proving the existence of stationary states near two-plane-wave superpositions. It blends Bloch theory for the linear polyharmonic operator with a nonlinear fixed-point scheme to incorporate the nonlinearity, yielding convergent series for perturbed eigenvalues and spectral projections and explicit control of isoenergetic surfaces. In resonant regimes, a 2×2 model captures near-degeneracies, and the authors construct nonlinear corrections producing paired eigenfunctions $u^{\pm}$ with precise high-energy asymptotics and differentiability with respect to the Bloch parameter. Specializing to $n=2$, $l=1$, the results guarantee resonant nonlinear Bloch states for sufficiently small $V$ and small amplitudes, with explicit error bounds and separation of energy branches, enabling detailed geometry of isoenergetic surfaces at large energies.

Abstract

The goal is a construction of stationary solutions close to a non-trivial combination of two plane waves at high energies for a periodic non-linear Schroedinger equation in dimension two. The corresponding isoenergetic surfaces are described for every sufficiently large energy.

Key Result

Lemma 1

For an arbitrarily small positive, $\delta$, $2\delta<2l-n$, and sufficiently large $k>k_0(\delta )$, there exists a non-resonant set $\chi _0(k,\delta )$, belonging to the isoenergetic surface $S_{0}(k)$ of the free operator $H_{0}(t)$, such that, for any $\vec{t}$ in it, Moreover, the nonsingular set has an asymptotically full measure on $S_{0}(k)$: where $s(.)$ denotes the Lebesgue measure.
