Conservative high order collocation methods for nonlinear Schrödinger equations

Riera, Pau January 2021 (has links)
In this thesis, we investigate the numerical solution of time-dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equations (more specifically, the Gross-Pitaevskii equation) that appear in the modeling of Bose-Einstein condensates. Since the model is known to conserve important physical invariants, such as mass and energy of the condensate, our goal is to study the importance of reproducing the conservation on the discrete level. The reliability of conservative, compared to non-conservative, methods shall be studied through high order collocation methods for the time discretization and finite element-based space discretizations. In particular, this includes symplectic discontinuous Galerkin time-stepping methods, as well as Continuous Petrov-Galerkin methods. The methods shall be tested for a problem with a known analytical solution, namely two interacting solitons in 1D. This problem is a suitable choice due to its high sensitivity to oscillations of the energy and difficulty to approximate for large time scales.

Modélisation des condensats de polaritons dans les microcavités planaires / Modeling of polariton condensates in planar microcavities

Gargoubi, Hamis 14 December 2016 (has links)
Les polaritons de microcavité sont des états hybrides lumière-matière à caractère bosonique.Dans les dernières décennies, un grand intérêt a été accordé à leur phase de condensation de Bose-Einstein.Nous avons développé dans ce travail des outils théoriques et numériques pour comprendre et interpréter la dynamique spatiale et temporelle de la formation des condensats de polaritons.Nous avons proposé une approche numérique pour la résolution complète des équations couplées du modèle Gross-Pitaevskii généralisé à deux dimensions en coordonnées cartésiennes.Nous avons cherché à comprendre les aspects du seuil de condensation sous différentes configurations spatiales et temporelles d'excitation optique non résonante.Nous avons en particulier proposé une nouvelle approche pour définir le seuil.Enfin, pour une condensation sous exciation focalisée, dans une microcavité ZnO, nous avons pu accéder à, et comprendre, quelques propriétés vues dans les expériences. / Microcavity polaritons are hybrid light-material states of a bosonic nature.In the last decades, an enormous interest has been paid to their Bose-Einstein condensation phase.We develop, in this work the theoretical and numerical tools to understand and interpret the spatial and temporal dynamics of the formation of condensates of polaritons.We propose a numerical approach for the comprehensive resolution of the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii model in two-dimensions in Cartesian coordinates.We sought to understand the aspects of the condensation threshold under different spatial and temporal configurations of non-resonant optical excitation.In particular, we propose a new approach to define the threshold.Finally, for a condensation under a focal exciation in a ZnO microcavity, we were able to access, and understand, some of the experimentally observed properties.

Quantum Systems in Bernoulli Potentials

Bishop, Michael Anthony January 2013 (has links)
Quantum mechanics is a theory developed to explain both particle and wave-like properties of small matter such as light and electrons. The consequences of the theory can be counter-intuitive but lead to mathematical and physical theory rich in fascinating phenomena and challenging questions. This dissertation investigates the nature of quantum systems in Bernoulli distributed random potentials for systems on the one dimensional lattice {0, 1, ..., L, L+1} ⊂ Z in the large system limit L → ∞. For single particle systems, the behavior of the low energy states is shown to be approximated by systems where positive potential is replaced by infinite potential. The approximate shape of these states is described, the asymptotics of their eigenvalues are calculated in the large system limit L → ∞, and a Lifschitz tail estimate on the sparsity of low energy states is proven. For interacting multi-particle systems, a Lieb-Liniger model with Bernoulli distributed potential is studied in the Gross-Pitaevskii approximation. First, to investigate localization in these settings, a general inequality is proven to bound from below the support of the mean-field. The bound depends on the per particle energy, number of particles, and interaction strength. Then, the ground state for the one-dimensional lattice with Bernoulli potential is studied in the large system limit. Specifically, the case where the product of interaction strength and particle density is near zero is considered to investigate whether localization can be recovered.
