On stability and instability of standing waves for 2d-nonlinear Schrödinger equations with point interaction (2109.04680v1)

Abstract: We study existence and stability properties of ground-state standing waves for two-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with a point interaction and a focusing power nonlinearity. The Schr\"odinger operator with a point interaction describes a one-parameter family of self-adjoint realizations of the Laplacian with delta-like perturbation. The perturbed Laplace operator always has a unique simple negative eigenvalue. We prove that if the frequency of the standing wave is close to the negative eigenvalue, it is stable. Moreover, if the frequency is sufficiently large, we have the stability in the $L^2$-subcritical or critical case, while the instability in the $L^2$-supercritical case.
