Abstract
Expanding upon our prior findings on the proximity of dynamics between integrable and non-integrable systems within the framework of nonlinear Schrödinger equations, we examine this phenomenon for the focusing Discrete Gross–Pitaevskii equation in comparison to the Ablowitz–Ladik lattice. The presence of the harmonic trap necessitates the study of the Ablowitz–Ladik lattice in weighted spaces. We establish estimates for the distance between solutions in the suitable metric, providing a comprehensive description of the potential evolution of this distance for general initial data. These results apply to a broad class of nonlinear Schrödinger models, including both discrete and partial differential equations. For the Discrete Gross–Pitaevskii equation, they guarantee the long-term persistence of small-amplitude bright solitons, driven by the analytical solution of the AL lattice, especially in the presence of a weak harmonic trap. Numerical simulations confirm the theoretical predictions about the proximity of dynamics between the systems over long times. They also reveal that the soliton exhibits remarkable robustness, even as the effects of the weak harmonic trap become increasingly significant, leading to the soliton’s curved orbit.
期刊介绍:
Wave Motion is devoted to the cross fertilization of ideas, and to stimulating interaction between workers in various research areas in which wave propagation phenomena play a dominant role. The description and analysis of wave propagation phenomena provides a unifying thread connecting diverse areas of engineering and the physical sciences such as acoustics, optics, geophysics, seismology, electromagnetic theory, solid and fluid mechanics.
The journal publishes papers on analytical, numerical and experimental methods. Papers that address fundamentally new topics in wave phenomena or develop wave propagation methods for solving direct and inverse problems are of interest to the journal.
