 Energy–momentum slope of a solitary wave

With $E=\frac{1}{2}\int [|\nabla \psi {|}^2+\frac{1}{2}(1-|\psi {|}^2{)}^2]$ and the renormalized momentum of a condensate, a Gross–Pitaevskii solitary wave is a critical point of $E-v{p}_x$. Along a differentiable solution family, fixed bulk normalization and vanishing variation boundary terms give $dE/d\lambda =vd{p}_x/d\lambda$. Therefore $dE/d{p}_x=v$ wherever $d{p}_x/d\lambda \ne 0$. At a cusp or turning point the parametrized identity is the appropriate statement; one must not assume a globally single-valued dispersion branch.
