Travelling waves for the Gross-Pitaevskii equation II

Fabrice Bethuel, Philippe Gravejat, Jean-Claude Saut

Published 2007-11-15, updated 2008-08-26Version 2

The purpose of this paper is to provide a rigorous mathematical proof of the existence of travelling wave solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in dimensions two and three. Our arguments, based on minimization under constraints, yield a full branch of solutions, and extend earlier results, where only a part of the branch was built. In dimension three, we also show that there are no travelling wave solutions of small energy.
