Spectral instability conjecture for stationary states on the tadpole graph
Spectral instability conjecture for stationary states on the tadpole graph
Let be the stationary standing-wave branch indexed by , and let the spectral stability problem be the linearized eigenvalue problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the tadpole graph. Write the frequency as
where is sufficiently small. Spectral instability conjecture. For every , the branch is spectrally unstable, with at least quartets of complex eigenvalues in the spectral stability problem. The preceding eigenvalue count is inconclusive for these stationary states, so the conjecture concerns their instability for small negative ; the supplied text gives no resolution.
