The author develops a geometric (ODE) approach to prove the existence of spherically symmetric standing waves of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation \(iu_ t=\Delta u+| u|^ Su\) with a prescribed number of zeros. The problem of uniqueness of solutions is studied. The author discusses also the stability question and describes a mechanism for forcing an instability.
