On the Continuum Limit for Discrete NLS with Long- Range Lattice Interactions

چکیده
We consider a general class of discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equations (DNLS) on the lattice hZ with mesh size h > 0. In the continuum limit when h → 0, we prove that the limiting dynamics are given by a nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) on R with the fractional Laplacian (− ) as dispersive symbol. In particular, we obtain that fractional powers 1 2 < α < 1 arise from long-range lattice interactions when passing to the continuum limit, whereas the NLS with the usual Laplacian − describes the dispersion in the continuum limit for short-range or quick-decaying interactions (e. g., nearest-neighbor interactions). Our results rigorously justify certain NLS model equations with fractional Laplacians proposed in the physics literature. Moreover, the arguments given in our paper can be also applied to discuss the continuum limit for other lattice systems with long-range interactions.

Nonlinear Schrödinger lattices II: Persistence and stability of discrete vortices
We study discrete vortices in the anti-continuum limit of the discrete two-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations. The discrete vortices in the anti-continuum limit represent a finite set of excited nodes on a closed discrete contour with a non-zero topological charge. Using the Lyapunov–Schmidt reductions, we find sufficient conditions for continuation and termination of the discret...

We consider the discrete solitons bifurcating from the anti-continuum limit of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) lattice. The discrete soliton in the anti-continuum limit represents an arbitrary finite superposition of in-phase or anti-phase excited nodes, separated by an arbitrary sequence of empty nodes. By using stability analysis, we prove that the discrete solitons are all unstable ...
متن کاملContinuous limit of discrete systems with long-range interaction
Discrete systems with long-range interactions are considered. Continuous medium models as continuous limit of discrete chain system are defined. Longrange interactions of chain elements that give the fractional equations for the medium model are discussed. The chain equations of motion with long-range interaction are mapped into the continuum equation with the Riesz fractional derivative. We fo...

One of the most serious principles in production theory in economic is the principle of "efficiency". Simply put, efficiency can be defined as the demand that the desired goals (outputs) are achieved with the minimum use of the available resources (inputs). In order to, distinguish the relative efficiency of organizational units with multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs, "Data Envelopmen...
