1 Continuations of NLS solutionsbeyond the singularityGadi Fibich Tel Aviv Universityff Moran Klein - Tel Aviv University B. Shim, S.E. Schrauth, A.L. Gaeta - Cornell 2 NLS in nonlinear optics Models the propagation of intense laser beams in Kerr medium (air, glass, water..) Competition between focusing Kerr nonlinearity and diffraction z“=”t (evolution variable) r=(x,y) z z=0 Kerr Medium Input Beam 3 Self Focusing Experiments in the 1960’s showed that intense laser beams undergo catastrophic self-focusing 4 Kelley (1965) : Solutions of 2D cubic NLS can become singular in finite time (distance) Tc  Finite-time singularity Beyond the singularity 5 ? No singularities in nature Laser beam propagates past Tc NLS is only an approximate model Common approach: Retain effects that were neglected in NLS model: Plasma, nonparaxiality, dispersion, Raman, … Many studies … Compare with hyperbolic conservation laws Solutions can become singular (shock waves) Singularity arrested in the presence of viscosity Huge literature on continuation of the singular inviscid solutions: Riemann problem Vanishing-viscosity solutions Entropy conditions Rankine-Hugoniot jump conditions Specialized numerical methods … Goal – develop a similar theory for the NLS Continuation of singular NLS solutions 7 Continuation of singular NLS solutions 8 no ``viscous’’ terms Continuation of singular NLS solutions 9 no ``viscous’’ terms Continuation of singular NLS solutions 2 key papers by Merle (1992) Less than 10 papers 10 no ``viscous’’ terms Talk plan Review of NLS theory Merle’s continuation Sub-threshold power continuation Nonlinear-damping continuation Continuation of linear solutions Phase-loss property 11 12 General NLS d – dimension, σ – nonlinearity Definition of singularity: Tc - singularity point 13 Classification of NLS global existence (no blowup) Subcritical σd2 blowup Critical σd=2 blowup Supercritical σd2 σd= 2 Physical case considered
