Abstract: We consider nonlinear Schr"{o}dinger equations, $ipartia{l}_{t}psi=H_{0}psi+lambda|psi{|}^{2}psi$ in $mathbb{R}^{3}imes[0,infty)$, where $H_0=-Delta+V$, $lambda=pm1$, the potential $V$ is radial and spatially decaying, and the linear Hamiltonian $H_0$ has only two eigenvalues $e_0<e_1<0$, where $e_0$ is simple, and $e_1$ has multiplicity three. We show that there exist two branches of small "nonlinear excited state" standing-wave solutions, and in both the resonant ($e_0<2e_1$) and non-resonant ($e_0>2e_1$) cases, we construct certain finite-codimension regions of the phase space consisting of solutions converging to these excited states at time infinity ("stable directions").
