Asymptotic behavior in time of solution to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with higher order anisotropic dispersion

Abstract

We consider the asymptotic behavior in time of solutions to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with fourth order anisotropic dispersion (4NLS) which describes the propagation of ultrashort laser pulses in a medium with anomalous time-dispersion in the presence of fourth-order time-dispersion. We prove existence of a solution to (4NLS) which scatters to a solution of the linearized equation of (4NLS) as t → ∞.
