Stationary solutions for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation

We construct stationary statistical solutions of a deterministic unforced nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, by perturbing it by a linear damping $\gamma u$ and a stochastic force whose intensity is proportional to $\sqrt \gamma$, and then letting $\gamma\to 0^+$. We prove indeed that the family of stationary solutions $\{U_\gamma\}_{\gamma>0}$ of the perturbed equation possesses an accumulation point for any vanishing sequence $\gamma_j\to 0^+$ and this stationary limit solves the deterministic unforced nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation and is not the trivial zero solution. This technique has been introduced in [KS04], using a different dissipation. However considering a linear damping of zero order and weaker solutions we can deal with larger ranges of the nonlinearity and of the spatial dimension; moreover we consider the focusing equation and the defocusing equation as well.
