Abstract

In this paper, we study the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation with exponential nonlinearities\[\left \{\begin{align}i \partial_t u + \Delta u & = - ( e^{{4 \pi \lvert u \rvert}^2} - 1 - {4 \pi \mu \lvert u \rvert}^2 ) u, \quad (t,x) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^2 , \\u(0) & = u_0 \in H^1 ,\end{align}\right .\]where $\mu \in \lbrace 0, 1 \rbrace$. By using variational arguments, we derive invariant sets where the global existence and finite time blow-up occur. In particular, we obtain sharp thresholds for global existence and finite time blow-up. In the case $\mu = 1$, we show the asymptotic behavior or energy scattering of global solutions by using a recent argument of Arora–Dodson–Murphy [3].
