A perturbative analysis of modulated amplitude waves in Bose-Einstein condensates.

Abstract:
We apply Lindstedt's method and multiple scale perturbation theory to analyze spatio-temporal structures in nonlinear Schrödinger equations and thereby study the dynamics of quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates with mean-field interactions. We determine the dependence of the amplitude of modulated amplitude waves on their wave number. We also explore the band structure of Bose-Einstein condensates in detail using Hamiltonian perturbation theory and supporting numerical simulations.
