Blow-up for the 1D nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with point nonlinearity II: Supercritical blow-up profiles

Abstract

We consider the 1D nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) with focusing \emph{point nonlinearity}, $$i\partial_t\psi + \partial_x^2\psi + \delta|\psi|^{p-1}\psi = 0$$ where $\delta=\delta(x)$ is the delta function supported at the origin. In the $L^2$ supercritical setting $p>3$, we construct self-similar blow-up solutions belonging to the energy space $L_x^\infty \cap \dot H_x^1$. This is reduced to finding outgoing solutions of a certain stationary profile equation. All outgoing solutions to the profile equation are obtained by using parabolic Weber functions and solving the jump condition at $x=0$ imposed by the $\delta$ term. This jump condition is an algebraic condition involving gamma functions, and existence and uniqueness of solutions is obtained using the intermediate value theorem and formulae for the digamma function. We also compute the form of these outgoing solutions in the slightly supercritical case $0<p-3 \ll 1$ using the log Binet formula for the gamma function, and contour deformation and stationary phase/Laplace method in the integral formulae for the parabolic Weber functions.
