abstract
Let $q(x,y)$ be an nondegenerate lump solution to KP-I (Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-I) equation $$\partial_x^4q-2\sqrt{2}\partial_x^2q-3\sqrt{2}\partial_x((\partial_xq) ^2)-2\partial_y^2q=0. $$ We prove the existence of a traveling wave solution $ u_{\e} (x-ct, y)$ to GP (Gross-Pitaevskii) equation $$ i\partial_{t}\Psi+\Delta\Psi+(1-|\Psi|^{2})\Psi=0,\ \ \ \mbox{in} \ {\mathbb R}^2 $$ in the transonic limit $$ c=\sqrt{2}-\epsilon^2 $$ with $$ u_\epsilon =1 + i \epsilon q(x,y) + {\mathcal O} (\epsilon^2). $$ This proves the existence of finite energy solutions in the so-called Jones-Roberts program in the transonic range $ c \in (\sqrt{2}-\epsilon^2, \sqrt{2})$. The main ingredients in our proof are detailed point-wise estimates of the Green function associated to a family of fourth order hypoelliptic operators $$\partial_x^4-(2\sqrt{2}-\e^2)\partial_x^2-2\partial_y^2+\e^2\partial_x^2\partial_y^2+\e^4\partial_y^4.$$

From KP-I Lump Solution to Travelling wave of 3D Gravity Capillary Water wave problem
For strong surface tension, the 3D gravity capillary water wave equations admit small fully localized traveling solitary waves whose leading-order profile is a KP-I lump.
