Asymptotic Sphere Concentration at Infinity for NLS with L^2 Constraint
Abstract
We consider the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equationmodeling attractive Bose--Einstein condensates. For all dimensions and all exponents , we prove the existence of normalized solutions whose -mass concentrates on spheres with radii diverging to infinity. In particular, the concentration set escapes to infinity rather than remaining on a fixed compact hypersurface, which makes our regime qualitatively different both from classical point-concentration phenomena and from concentrating profiles in unconstrained problems. Our approach combines a tailored finite-dimensional reduction with a blow-up analysis based on Pohozaev identities and, in this way, extends the two-dimensional mass-critical result for obtained in Guo--Tian--Zhou (Calc.\ Var.\ Partial Differential Equations, 2022). The proof in that paper relies in an essential way on the two-dimensional structure and does not directly apply in higher dimensions, whereas here we develop a different approximation scheme and functional setting adapted to the high-dimensional sphere-at-infinity concentration regime.
