Exponential decay of eigenfunctions and generalized eigenfunctions of a non self-adjoint matrix Schr\"odinger operator related to NLS

Abstract

We study the decay of eigenfunctions of the non self-adjoint matrix operator $\calH = (\begin{smallmatrix} -\Delta +\mu+U & W \W & \Delta -\mu -U \end{smallmatrix})$, for $\mu>0$, corresponding to eigenvalues in the strip $-\mu<\re E <\mu$.
