Ground State of N Coupled Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations in {\mathbb{R}}^n, n \leq 3

TLDR
In this paper, the existence and nonexistence of ground state solutions of N coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations is established. But the sign of the coupling constants is not crucial for the existence of ground-state solutions.
Abstract
We establish some general theorems for the existence and nonexistence of ground state solutions of steady-state N coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. The sign of coupling constants β ij ’s is crucial for the existence of ground state solutions. When all β ij ’s are positive and the matrix Σ is positively definite, there exists a ground state solution which is radially symmetric. However, if all β ij ’s are negative, or one of β ij ’s is negative and the matrix Σ is positively definite, there is no ground state solution. Furthermore, we find a bound state solution which is non-radially symmetric when N=3.
