Results on the spectral stability of standing wave solutions of the Soler model in 1-D.
2021
We study the spectral stability of the nonlinear Dirac operator in dimension 1+1, restricting our attention to nonlinearities of the form $f(\langle\psi,\sigma_3\psi\rangle_{\mathbb{C}^2}) \sigma_3$. We obtain bounds on eigenvalues for the linearized operator around standing wave solutions of the form $e^{-i\omega t} \phi_0$. For the case of power nonlinearities $f(s)= |s|^p$, $p>0$, we obtain a range of frequencies $\omega$ such that the linearized operator has no unstable eigenvalues on the axes of the complex plane. As a crucial part of the proofs, we obtain a detailed description of the spectra of the self-adjoint blocks in the linearized operator. In particular, we show that the condition $\langle\phi_0,\sigma_3\phi_0\rangle_{\mathbb{C}^2} > 0$ characterizes groundstates analogously to the Schrodinger case.
