We show that a nonlinear Schrodinger wave equation can reproduce all the features of linear quantum mechanics. This nonlinear wave equation is obtained by exploring, in a uniform language, the transition from fully classical theory governed by a nonlinear classical wave equation to quantum theory. The classical wave equation includes a nonlinear classicality enforcing potential which when eliminated transforms the wave equation into the linear Schrodinger equation. We show that it is not necessary to completely cancel this nonlinearity to recover the linear behavior of quantum mechanics. Scaling the classicality enforcing potential is sufficient to have quantum-like features appear and is equivalent to scaling Plancks constant.

Utilization of a quantum system whose time-development is described by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the transformation of qubits would make it possible to construct quantum algorithms which would be useful in a large class of problems. An example of such a system for implementing the logical NOR operation is demonstrated.
We study the time-asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Schrodinger equation with nonlinear dissipation begin{equation*} partial _t u = i Delta u + lambda |u|^alpha u end{equation*} in ${mathbb R}^N $, $Ngeq1$, where $lambdain {mathbb C}$, $Re lambda <0$ and $0<alpha<frac2N$. We give a precise description of the behavior of the solutions (including decay rates in $L^2$ and $L^infty $, and asymptotic profile), for a class of arbitrarily large initial data, under the additional assumption that $alpha $ is sufficiently close to $frac2N$.
We consider the Schrodinger equation with nonlinear dissipation begin{equation*} i partial _t u +Delta u=lambda|u|^{alpha}u end{equation*} in ${mathbb R}^N $, $Ngeq1$, where $lambdain {mathbb C} $ with $Imlambda<0$. Assuming $frac {2} {N+2}<alpha<frac2N$, we give a precise description of the long-time behavior of the solutions (including decay rates in $L^2$ and $L^infty $, and asymptotic profile), for a class of arbitrarily large initial data.
We perform a numerical study of the initial-boundary value problem, with vanishing boundary conditions, of a driven nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) with linear damping and a Gaussian driver. We identify Peregrine-like rogue waveforms, excited by two different types of vanishing initial data decaying at an algebraic or exponential rate. The observed extreme events emerge on top of a decaying support. Depending on the spatial/temporal scales of the driver, the transient dynamics -- prior to the eventual decay of the solutions -- may resemble the one in the semiclassical limit of the integrable NLS, or may, e.g., lead to large-amplitude breather-like patterns. The effects of the damping strength and driving amplitude, in suppressing or enhancing respectively the relevant features, as well as of the phase of the driver in the construction of a diverse array of spatiotemporal patterns, are numerically analyzed.
Irrotational ow of a spherical thin liquid layer surrounding a rigid core is described using the defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Accordingly, azimuthal moving nonlinear waves are modeled by periodic dark solitons expressed by elliptic functions. In the quantum regime the algebraic Bethe ansatz is used in order to capture the energy levels of such motions, which we expect to be relevant for the dynamics of the nuclear clusters in deformed heavy nuclei surface modeled by quantum liquid drops. In order to validate the model we match our theoretical energy spectra with experimental results on energy, angular momentum and parity for alpha particle clustering nuclei.
