On the ?-volume limit of the focusing cubic Schr�dinger equation (Q4790280)

The author considers the equilibrium statistical mechanics of the cubic Schrödinger equation \[ {\partial Q\over \partial t}=-P''\pm(P^2+Q^2)P= {\partial H\over \partial P}\quad \text{and} \quad{\partial P\over \partial t}= Q''\mp(P^2+ Q^2)Q=- {\partial H\over \partial Q}\tag{1} \] taken at first on the circle \(0\leq x\leq L\) for which the Hamiltonian is \[ H=\tfrac 12\int^L_0 \biggl [\bigl(P'(x) \bigr)^2+ \bigl(Q'(x)\bigr)^2 \biggr] dx\pm\tfrac 14\int^L_0 \bigl [P^2(x)+ Q^2(x)\bigr]^2 dx.\tag{2} \] The author revisits the question of an invariant measure for the focusing cubic Schrödinger equation (1). The main result here is that, in the infinite volume, the ensemble collapses onto the unit mass on the trivial path.
