Chern–Simons–Schrödinger theory on a one-dimensional lattice

We propose a gauge-invariant system of the Chern–Simons–Schrödinger type on a one-dimensional lattice. By using the spatial gauge condition, we prove local and global well-posedness of the initial-value problem in the space of square summable sequences for the scalar field. We also study the existence region of the stationary bound states, which depends on the lattice spacing and the nonlinearity power. A major difficulty in the existence …
