    This paper deals with the study of the superfluidity phenomenon in nanotubes. The authors is concerned with the case of molecules with an odd number of neutrons. This framework implies that the eigenfunctions of the corresponding Schrödinger equation describing a set of such molecules are antisymmetric with respect to transpositions of molecules. The main result establishes that the superfluidity effect in nanotubes arises in a classical liquid and involves not only the Bogolyubov running waves, but also a standing wave. The proof relies on variational arguments. For part I, cf. Russ. J. Math. Phys. 14, No. 3, 304--318 (2007; Zbl 1179.82168).
