Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the logarithmic nonlinear Schrödinger (LNLS) equation with the parity-time (PT)-symmetric harmonic potential, which is an important physical model in many fields such as nuclear physics, quantum optics, magma transport phenomena, and effective quantum gravity. Three types of initial value conditions and periodic boundary conditions are chosen to solve the LNLS equation with PT -symmetric harmonic potential via the physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) deep learning method, and these obtained results are compared with ones deduced from the Fourier spectral method. Moreover, we also investigate the effectiveness of the PINNs deep learning for the LNLS equation with PT symmetric potential by choosing the distinct space widths or distinct optimized steps. Finally, we use the PINNs deep learning method to effectively tackle the data-driven discovery of the LNLS equation with PT -symmetric harmonic potential such that the coefficients of dispersion and nonlinear terms or the amplitudes of PT -symmetric harmonic potential can be approximately found.

Is there an accelerating nonspreading wave packet in the Schrödinger equation with higher even-order dispersions?

Probably not. For Airy-type initial data, although nearly all lobes accelerate, the principal lobe remains essentially stationary. Moreover, the overall wave packet gradually disperses.

Routes to chaos in a mass-conserving two-species reaction-diffusion model

Mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems with two species correspond to a seemingly simple case where pattern formation occurs under the influence of a conservation law. Here, we first revisit their linear stability behavior and point out that generically two instabilities can occur: a stationary large-scale mass-conserving (Cahn-Hilliard) instability and an instability that combines features of a stationary large-scale non-mass-conserving (Allen-Cahn) instability and a oscillatory large-scale mass-conserving (conserved-Hopf) instability. We term it an Allen-Cahn-Hopf instability. Second, we investigate the nonlinear dynamics for a specific model related to the formation of cell polarization where only a Cahn-Hilliard instability can occur, i.e., all primary bifurcations are stationary. We analyze how secondary and further bifurcations subsequently give rise to various oscillatory states. The emerging rich spectrum of spatiotemporal behavior includes several period-doubling cascades related to different forms of spatial and temporal symmetry breaking. Beside regular states, three types of low-dimensional spatiotemporal chaos occur and involve transitions like fusion and an outer crises. Our results demonstrate the importance of nonlinear interactions in the dynamics of mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems, and show that even a simple two-species system with primary bifurcations of Cahn-Hilliard type can show complex spatiotemporal behavior.

Duck hunting with quantum mechanics

We bridge two sides of singular perturbation theory: the classical theory of slow-fast systems and the semi-classical approach to quantum mechanical systems. For a specific but physically important class of dynamical systems, we show that purely classical and exotic objects, so-called canard solutions, are shadows of instantons in the corresponding quantum system. We demonstrate that canard solutions exist in a domain of parameter space whose boundaries are determined by an instanton action. We illustrate our statements analytically for the relevant example, the overdamped Josephson junction, and confirm them numerically. For the Josephson junction, the canard window is the exponentially narrow gap between consecutive Shapiro steps.
