Dynamical representations of constrained multicomponent nonlinear Schrödinger equations in arbitrary dimensions

We present new approaches for solving constrained multicomponent nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations in arbitrary dimensions. The idea is to introduce an artificial time and solve an extended damped second order dynamic system whose stationary solution is the solution to the time-independent nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Constraints are often considered by projection onto the constraint set, here we include them explicitly into the dynamical system. We show the applicability and efficiency of the methods on examples of relevance in modern physics applications.
