Abstract

We define and study the Cauchy problem for a one-dimensional (1-D) nonlinear Dirac equation with nonlinearities concentrated at one point. Global well-posedness is provided and conservation laws for mass and energy are shown. Several examples, including nonlinear Gesztesy--Šeba models and the concentrated versions of the Bragg resonance and 1-D Soler (also known as massive Gross--Neveu) type models, all within the scope of the present paper, are given. The key point of the proof consists in the reduction of the original equation to a nonlinear integral equation for an auxiliary, space-independent variable.
