Stability of exact solutions of the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation with periodic potential in two dimensions

The cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation with repulsive nonlinearity and elliptic function potential in two-dimensions models a repulsive dilute gas Bose--Einstein condensate in a lattice potential. A family of exact stationary solutions is presented and its stability is examined using analytical and numerical methods. All stable trivial-phase solutions are off-set from the zero level. Our results imply that a large number of condensed atoms is sufficient to form a stable, periodic condensate. Key words: Bose-Einstein condensates, two-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation, periodic potential, elliptic functions PACS: 65.65 1 Introduction The cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation with attractive or repulsive nonlinearity and a potential is used as a mean-field model for the dynamics of a dilute-gas Bose Einstein condensate (BEC) [1,2]. In this case, the equation is often referred to as the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. These BECs are of interest in both the theoretical and experim...

Stability of repulsive Bose-Einstein condensates in a periodic potential

Jared C. Bronski, Lincoln D. Carr, Bernard Deconinck +2 more

The cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with repulsive nonlinearity and an elliptic function potential models a quasi-one-dimensional repulsive dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in a standing light wave. New families of stationary solutions are presented. Some of these solutions have neither an analog in the linear Schrödinger equation nor in the integrable nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Their stability is examined using analytical and numerical methods. All trivial-phase stable solutions are deformations of the ground state of the linear Schrödinger equation. Our results show that a large number of condensed atoms is sufficient to form a stable, periodic condensate. Physically, this implies stability of states near the Thomas-Fermi limit.

Dynamics and Stability of Bose-Einstein Condensates: the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation with Periodic Potential

Bernard Deconinck, Béla A. Frigyik, J. Nathan Kutz

The cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation with a lattice potential is used to model a periodic dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate. Both two- and three-dimensional condensates are considered, for atomic species with either repulsive or attractive interactions. A family of exact solutions and corresponding potential is presented in terms of elliptic functions. The dynamical stability of these exact solutions is examined using both analytical and numerical methods. For condensates with repulsive atomic interactions, all stable, trivial-phase solutions are off-set from the zero level. For condensates with attractive atomic interactions, no stable solutions are found, in contrast to the one-dimensional case.
