Abstract:

Rotational Bose-Einstein condensates can exhibit quantized vortices as topological excitations. In this study, the ground and excited states of two-dimensional rotational Bose-Einstein condensates are systematically studied by calculating stationary points of the Gross-Pitaevskii energy functional with a constraint. A solution landscape is constructed using downward/upward search with constrained high-index saddle dynamics. Various excited states and their connections at different rotational frequencies are revealed with solution landscapes. Four excitation mechanisms are identified: vortex addition, rearrangement, merging, and splitting. We demonstrate changes in the ground state with increasing rotational frequencies and decipher the evolution of stability of ground states.
