Fast-moving finite and infinite trains of solitons for nonlinear Schrödinger equations

Abstract: We study infinite soliton trains solutions of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations (NLS), i.e. solutions behaving at large time as the sum of infinitely many solitary waves. Assuming the composing solitons have sufficiently large relative speeds, we prove the existence and uniqueness of such a soliton train. We also give a new construction of multi-solitons (i.e. finite trains) and prove uniqueness in an exponentially small neighborhood, and we consider the case of solutions composed of several solitons and kinks (i.e. solutions with a non-zero background at infinity).
