Logarithmic NLS equation on star graphs: existence and stability of standing waves

In this paper we consider the logarithmic Schr\"{o}dinger equation on a star graph. By using a compactness method, we construct a unique global solution of the associated Cauchy problem in a suitable functional framework. Then we show the existence of several families of standing waves. We also prove the existence of ground states as minimizers of the action on the Nehari manifold. Finally, we show that the ground states are orbitally stable via a variational approach.
