Soliton dynamics for the generalized Choquard equation

Abstract

We investigate the soliton dynamics for a class of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with a non-local nonlinear term. In particular, we consider what we call {\em generalized Choquard equation} where the nonlinear term is $(|x|^{\theta-N} * |u|^p)|u|^{p-2}u$. This problem is particularly interesting because the ground state solutions are not known to be unique or non-degenerate.
