A special type of multi-variate polynomial of degree 4, called the double well potential function, is studied. When the function is bounded from below, it has a very unique property that two or more local minimum solutions are separated by…
A simple approximate solution for the quantum-mechanical quartic oscillator $V= m^2 x^2+g x^4$ in the double-well regime $m^2<0$ at arbitrary $g \geq 0$ is presented. It is based on a combining of perturbation theory near true minima of the…
We deal with the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which is used to describe a cloud of dilute bosonic atoms that interact under competing two- and three-body scattering potentials. We study the case where the cloud of atoms is…
We investigate quantum turbulence in a two-dimensional trapped supersolid and demonstrate that both the wave and vortex turbulence involve triple rather than dual cascades, as in a superfluid. Because of the presence of a second gapless…

The dynamics of a bright matter wave soliton in a quasi 1D Bose-Einstein condensate with periodically rapidly varying trap is considered. The governing equation is derived based on averaging over fast modulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii…

We establish global-in-time well-posedness of the one-dimensional hydrodynamic Gross-Pitaevskii equations in the absence of vacuum in $(1 + H^s) \times H^{s-1}$ with $s \geq 1$. We achieve this by a reduction via the Madelung transform to…
