Stability of standing waves for a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a repulsive dirac delta potential

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We consider a stationary nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a repulsive delta-function impurity in one space dimension. This equation admits a unique positive solution and this solution is even. We prove that it is a minimizer of the associated energy on the subspace of even functions of H ¹(ℝ, ℂ), but not on all H¹ (ℝ, ℂ), and study its orbital stability.
