Nonlinear Schrödinger equation on four-dimensional compact manifolds

Patrick Gérard, Vittoria Pierfelice (2010)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We prove two new results about the Cauchy problem in the energy space for nonlinear Schrödinger equations on four-dimensional compact manifolds. The first one concerns global well-posedness for Hartree-type nonlinearities and includes approximations of cubic NLS on the sphere as a particular case. The second one provides, in the case of zonal data on the sphere, local well-posedness for quadratic nonlinearities as well as a necessary and sufficient condition of global well-posedness for small energy...

Nonlinear vibrations of completely resonant wave equations

Massimiliano Berti (2007)

Banach Center Publications

We present recent existence results of small amplitude periodic and quasi-periodic solutions of completely resonant nonlinear wave equations. Both infinite-dimensional bifurcation phenomena and small divisors difficulties occur. The proofs rely on bifurcation theory, Nash-Moser implicit function theorems, dynamical systems techniques and variational methods.

Notes on symplectic non-squeezing of the KdV flow

J. Colliander, M. Keel, G. Staffilani, H. Takaoka, T. Tao (2005)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

We prove two finite dimensional approximation results and a symplectic non-squeezing property for the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) flow on the circle 𝕋 . The nonsqueezing result relies on the aforementioned approximations and the finite-dimensional nonsqueezing theorem of Gromov [14]. Unlike the work of Kuksin [22] which initiated the investigation of non-squeezing results for infinite dimensional Hamiltonian systems, the nonsqueezing argument here does not construct a capacity directly. In this way our...

On foundations of the Conley index theory

Roman Srzednicki (1999)

Banach Center Publications

The Conley index theory was introduced by Charles C. Conley (1933-1984) in [C1] and a major part of the foundations of the theory was developed in Ph. D. theses of his students, see for example [Ch, Ku, Mon]. The Conley index associates the homotopy type of some pointed space to an isolated invariant set of a flow, just as the fixed point index associates an integer number to an isolated set of fixed points of a continuous map. Examples of isolated invariant sets arise naturally in the critical...
