Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations and the Separation Property

Gerald A. Goldin, George Svetlichny

We investigate hierarchies of nonlinear Schrödinger equations for multiparticle systems satisfying the separation property, i.e., where product wave functions evolve by the separate evolution of each factor.Such a hierarchy defines a nonlinear derivation on tensor products of the single-particle wave-function space, and satisfies a certain homogeneity property characterized by two new universal physical constants.A canonical construction of hierarchies is derived that allows the introduction, at any particular "threshold" number of particles, of truly new physical effects absent in systems having fewer particles.In particular, if single quantum particles satisfy the usual (linear) Schrödinger equation, a system of two particles can evolve by means of a fairly simple nonlinear Schrödinger equation without violating the separation property.Examples of Galileian-invariant hierarchies are given.

Nonlinear Schrödinger equations and the separation property

Gerald A. Goldin, George Svetlichny

Hierarchies of nonlinear Schrödinger equations were investigated for multiparticle systems, satisfying the separation property, i.e., where product wave functions evolve by the separate evolution of each factor. Such a hierarchy defines a nonlinear derivation on tensor products of the single-particle wave-function space, and satisfies a certain homogeneity property characterized by two new universal physical constants. A canonical construction of hierarchies is derived that allows the introduction, at any particular ‘‘threshold’’ number of particles, of truly new physical effects absent in systems having fewer particles. In particular, if single quantum particles satisfy the usual (linear) Schrödinger equation, a system of two particles can evolve by means of a fairly simple nonlinear Schrödinger equation without violating the separation property. Examples of Galilean-invariant hierarchies are given.

Exact solutions of the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation through supersymmetric potentials

David J. Fernández C., O. Pavón-Torres

By employing supersymmetric quantum mechanics, we present a general algorithm to construct supersymmetric partner potentials and hence derive exact stationary solutions of the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation (INLSE). This is possible due to the connection between the INLSE and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE), which can be established from a treatment based on Lie point symmetries and is related with Schrödinger equation, under certain conditions. As an illustrative example, we construct exact solutions for the INLSE through a Pösch-Teller potential with a single bound state.
