Self-similar solutions with compactly supported profile of some nonlinear Schrodinger equations

Pascal Begout, Jesus Ildefonso Diaz

Abstract:
``Sharp localized'' solutions (i.e. with compact support for each given time t) of a singular nonlinear type Schr\"odinger equation in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^N$ are constructed here under the assumption that they have a self-similar structure. It requires the assumption that the external forcing term satisfies that $\mathbf{f}(t,x)=t^{-(\mathbf{p}-2)/2}\mathbf{F}(t^{-1/2}x)$ for some complex exponent $\mathbf{p}$ and for some profile function $\mathbf{F}$ which is assumed to be with compact support in $\mathbb{R}^N$. We show the existence of solutions of the form , with a profile $\mathbf{U}$, which also has compact support in $\mathbb{R}^N$. The proof of the localization of the support of the profile $\mathbf{U}$ uses some suitable energy method applied to the stationary problem satisfied by $\mathbf{U}$ after some unknown transformation.
