Abstract

In this paper, we continue the development of a generic adiabatic scheme for nonlinear evolutions. We consider an abstract gradient flow of some energy functional, together with a given manifold of static solutions arising from broken symmetries. First, we list a number of explicit and generic conditions on the energy functional that ensures the validity of our adiabatic scheme. Then, we construct some explicit low-energy but no necessarily static configurations, which form a stable manifold with finite codimensions for the given gradient flow. Thirdly, we show that the gradient flow is globally well-posed with initial configuration from the stable manifold. Finally, we show that any solution to the full gradient flow starting from the stable manifold is essentially governed by an effective equation on the manifold of static solutions, up to a uniformly small and dissipating error term.
