Quasiparticle solutions for the nonlocal NLSE with an anti-Hermitian term in semiclassical approximation

Abstract

We deal with the $n$-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) with a cubic nonlocal nonlinearity and an anti-Hermitian term, which is widely used model for the study of open quantum system. We construct asymptotic solutions to the Cauchy problem for such equation within the formalism of semiclassical approximation based on the Maslov complex germ method. Our solutions are localized in a neighbourhood of few points for every given time, i.e. form some spatial pattern. The localization points move over trajectories that are associated with the dynamics of semiclassical quasiparticles. The Cauchy problem for the original NLSE is reduced to the system of ODEs and auxiliary linear equations. The semiclassical nonlinear evolution operator is derived for the NLSE. The general formalism is applied to the specific one-dimensional NLSE with a periodic trap potential, dipole-dipole interaction, and phenomenological damping. It is shown that the long-range interactions in such model, which are considered through the interaction of quasiparticles in our approach, can lead to drastic changes in the behaviour of our asymptotic solutions.
