RESUMO
We study the existence of nontrivial solution branches of three-coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations (CGPEs), which are used as the mathematical model for rotating spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). The Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction is exploited to test the branching of nontrivial solution curves from the trivial one in some neighborhoods of bifurcation points. A multilevel continuation method is proposed for computing the ground state solution of rotating spin-1 BEC. By properly choosing the constraint conditions associated with the components of the parameter variable, the proposed algorithm can effectively compute the ground states of spin-1 [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] under rapid rotation. Extensive numerical results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. In particular, the affect of the magnetization on the CGPEs is investigated.
