KAM for beating solutions of the quintic NLS

Abstract

We consider the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation of degree five on the circle $\mathbb{S}^1 = \mathbb{R}/2\pi$. We prove the existence of quasi-periodic solutions which bifurcate from "resonant" solutions (studied in [14]) of the system obtained by truncating the Hamiltonian after one step of Birkhoff normal form, exhibiting recurrent exchange of energy between some Fourier modes. The existence of these quasi-periodic solutions is a purely nonlinear effect.
