We study numerically the outcome of the phase separation instability of a dual-species Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice. When only one excitation mode is unstable a bound pair of a bright and dark soliton-like structures…

Boson stars are horizonless compact objects and they could possess novel geodesic orbits under the equilibrium assumption, which differ from those in black hole backgrounds. However, unstable boson stars may collapse into black holes or…

We investigate the stability of supercurrents in a Bose-Einstein condensate with one-dimensional spin-orbit and Raman couplings. The consequence of the lack of Galilean invariance is explicitly discussed. We show that in the plane-wave…

We analyse the static solutions of attractive Bose-Einstein condensates under transverse confinement, both with and without axial confinement. By full numerical solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation and variational methods we map out…

We study the nonlinear equation $i \partial_t \psi = (\sqrt{-\Delta + m^2} - m) \psi - ( |x|^{-1} \ast |\psi|^2 ) \psi$ on $\RR^3$, which is known to describe the dynamics of pseudo-relativistic boson stars in the mean-field limit. For…
