Spectral analysis of dispersive shocks for quantum hydrodynamics with nonlinear viscosity
arXiv:2103.10386
Abstract
In this paper we investigate spectral stability of traveling wave solutions to 1- quantum hydrodynamics system with nonlinear viscosity in the , that is, density and velocity, variables. We derive a sufficient condition for the stability of the essential spectrum and we estimate the maximum modulus of eigenvalues with non-negative real part. In addition, we present numerical computations of the Evans function in sufficiently large domain of the unstable half-plane and show numerically that its winding number is (approximately) zero, thus giving a numerical evidence of point spectrum stability.
