terminal edges

Peaked and low action solutions of NLS equations on graphs with terminal edges

We consider the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with focusing power-type nonlinearity on compact graphs with at least one terminal edge, i.e., an edge ending with a vertex of degree 1. On the one hand, we introduce the associated action functional, and we provide a profile description of positive low action solutions at large frequencies, showing that they concentrate on one terminal edge, where they coincide with suitable rescaling of the unique solution to the corresponding problem on the half-line.
