Continuing a line of investigation initiated in [11] exploring the connections between Jost and Evans functions and (modified) Fredholm determinants of Birman-Schwinger type integral operators, we here examine the stability index, or sign of the first nonvanishing derivative at frequency zero of the characteristic determinant, an object that has found considerable use in the study by Evans function techniques of stability of standing and traveling wave solutions of partial differential equations (PDE) in one dimension. This leads us to the derivation of general perturbation expansions for analytically-varying modified Fredholm determinants of abstract operators. Our main conclusion, similarly in the analysis of the determinant itself, is that the derivative of the characteristic Fredholm determinant may be efficiently computed from first principles for integral operators with semi-separable integral kernels, which include in particular the general one-dimensional case, and for sums thereof, which latter possibility appears to offer applications in the multi-dimensional case. A second main result is to show that the multi-dimensional characteristic Fredholm determinant is the renormalized limit of a sequence of Evans functions defined in [23] on successive Galerkin subspaces, giving a natural extension of the one-dimensional results of [11] and answering a question of [27] whether this sequence might possibly converge (in general, no, but with renormalization, yes). Convergence is useful in practice for numerical error control and acceleration.

We consider the stability problem for standing waves of nonlinear Dirac models. Under a suitable definition of linear stability, and under some restriction on the spectrum, we prove at the same time orbital and asymptotic stability. We are not able t o get the full result proved by Cuccagna for the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, because of the strong indefiniteness of the energy.
We consider dispersion generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equations (NLS) of the form $i partial_t u = P(D) u - |u|^{2 sigma} u$, where $P(D)$ denotes a (pseudo)-differential operator of arbitrary order. As a main result, we prove symmetry results for traveling solitary waves in the case of powers $sigma in mathbb{N}$. The arguments are based on Steiner type rearrangements in Fourier space. Our results apply to a broad class of NLS-type equations such as fourth-order (biharmonic) NLS, fractional NLS, square-root Klein-Gordon and half-wave equations.
We consider nonlinear half-wave equations with focusing power-type nonlinearity $$ i pt_t u = sqrt{-Delta} , u - |u|^{p-1} u, quad mbox{with $(t,x) in R times R^d$} $$ with exponents $1 < p < infty$ for $d=1$ and $1 < p < (d+1)/(d-1)$ for $d geq 2$. We study traveling solitary waves of the form $$ u(t,x) = e^{iomega t} Q_v(x-vt) $$ with frequency $omega in R$, velocity $v in R^d$, and some finite-energy profile $Q_v in H^{1/2}(R^d)$, $Q_v ot equiv 0$. We prove that traveling solitary waves for speeds $|v| geq 1$ do not exist. Furthermore, we generalize the non-existence result to the square root Klein--Gordon operator $sqrt{-DD+m^2}$ and other nonlinearities. As a second main result, we show that small data scattering fails to hold for the focusing half-wave equation in any space dimension. The proof is based on the existence and properties of traveling solitary waves for speeds $|v| < 1$. Finally, we discuss the energy-critical case when $p=(d+1)/(d-1)$ in dimensions $d geq 2$.
In this paper we deal with two dimensional cubic Dirac equations appearing as effective model in gapped honeycomb structures. We give a formal derivation starting from cubic Schrodinger equations and prove the existence of standing waves bifurcating from one band-edge of the linear spectrum.
We consider random elliptic equations in dimension $dgeq 3$ at small ellipticity contrast. We derive the large-distance asymptotic expansion of the annealed Greens function up to order $4$ in $d=3$ and up to order $d+2$ for $dgeq 4$. We also derive a symptotic expansions of its derivatives. The obtained precision lies far beyond what is established in prior results in stochastic homogenization theory. Our proof builds on a recent breakthrough in perturbative stochastic homogenization by Bourgain in a refined version shown by Kim and the second author, and on Fourier-analytic techniques of Uchiyama.
