Nonlinear Transformation for a Class of Gauged Schroedinger Equations with Complex Nonlinearities

preprint2002arXivOpen access

Abstract

In the present contribution we consider a class of Schroedinger equations containing complex nonlinearities, describing systems with conserved norm ∣ψ∣2|ψ|^2 and minimally coupled to an abelian gauge field. We introduce a nonlinear transformation which permits the linearization of the source term in the evolution equations for the gauge field, and transforms the nonlinear Schroedinger equations in another one with real nonlinearities. We show that this transformation can be performed either on the gauge field AμA_μ or, equivalently, on the matter field ψψ. Since the transformation does not change the quantities ∣ψ∣2|ψ|^2 and FμνF_{μν}, it can be considered a generalization of the gauge transformation of third kind introduced some years ago by other authors.
