In explicit string theory compactifications, fuzzy axion dark matter is rare and typically requires fine-tuning of initial axion displacements or a non-standard reheating epoch to avoid overproducing heavier axions.

abstract
We provide an algorithm for evolving general spin-$s$ Gross-Pitaevskii / non-linear Schr\"odinger systems carrying a variety of interactions, where the $2s+1$ components of the `spinor' field represent the different spin-multiplicity states. We consider many nonrelativistic interactions up to quartic order in the Schr\"odinger field (both short and long-range, and spin-dependent and spin-independent interactions), including explicit spin-orbit couplings. The algorithm allows for spatially varying external and/or self-generated vector potentials that couple to the spin density of the field. Our work can be used for scenarios ranging from laboratory systems such as spinor Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), to cosmological/astrophysical systems such as self-interacting bosonic dark matter. As examples, we provide results for two different setups of spin-$1$ BECs that employ a varying magnetic field and spin-orbit coupling, respectively, and also collisions of spin-$1$ solitons in dark matter. Our symplectic algorithm is second-order accurate in time, and is extensible to the known higher-order accurate methods.
