We consider the existence of multiple positive solutions to the nonlinear
Schr"odinger systems sets on H1(RN)×H1(RN), [
\left{ \begin{aligned} -\Delta u_1 &= \lambda_1 u_1 + \mu_1 |u_1|^{p_1 -2}u_1
- \beta r_1 |u_1|^{r_1-2} u_1|u_2|^{r_2}, -\Delta u_2 &= \lambda_2 u_2 + \mu_2
|u_2|^{p_2 -2}u_2 + \beta r_2 |u_1|^{r_1} |u_2|^{r_2 -2} u_2, \end{aligned}
\right. ] under the constraint ∫RN∣u1∣2dx=a1,∫RN∣u2∣2dx=a2. Here a1,a2>0 are prescribed,
μ1,μ2,β>0, and the frequencies λ1,λ2 are unknown
and will appear as Lagrange multipliers. Two cases are studied, the first when
$N \geq 1, 2 < p_1, p_2 < 2 + \frac 4N, r_1, r_2 > 1, 2 + \frac 4N < r_1 + r_2
< 2^,thesecondwhen N \geq 1, 2+ \frac 4N < p_1, p_2 < 2^, r_1, r_2 > 1,
r_1 + r_2 < 2 + \frac 4N.Inbothcases,assumingthat\beta >0$ is
sufficiently small, we prove the existence of two positive solutions. The first
one is a local minimizer for which we establish the compactness of the
minimizing sequences and also discuss the orbital stability of the associated
standing waves. The second solution is obtained through a constrained mountain
pass and a constrained linking respectively.
