On soliton asymptotics for 2D Maxwell-Lorentz equations with rotating particle

TL;DR
This work analyzes the 2D Maxwell-Lorentz system for an extended rotating charge, proving long-time stability of soliton solutions that travel with constant velocity and rotate with a fixed rate. The authors develop a modulation framework built on a symplectic orthogonal projection to the soliton manifold, derive a linearized transversal dynamics generator, and establish decay via resolvent analysis under a Wiener-type spectral condition (the M-condition). They show that solutions near a soliton decompose into a moving soliton with asymptotic parameters and dispersive radiation, with the transversal component decaying like $t^{-2}$ and the radiative field contributing a $t^{-1}$-decay in energy norm. The results extend prior work by treating nonzero rotation ($\omega$) and identify a regime (large inertia $I$) where the spectral condition holds, yielding rigorous asymptotic stability for a broad class of initial data. This advances understanding of soliton asymptotics and radiation damping in coupled field-particle systems in two dimensions.
Abstract
We consider 2D Maxwell-Lorentz equations with extended charged rotating particle. The system admits solitons which are solutions corresponding to a particle moving with a constant velocity and rotating with a constant angular velocity. Our main result is asymptotic stability of the solitons.
