We present a pathfollowing strategy based on pseudo-arclength parametrization for the solution of parameter-dependent boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations. We formulate criteria which ensure the successful application of this method for the computation of solution branches with turning points for problems with an essential singularity. The advantages of our approach result from the possibility to use efficient mesh selection, and a favorable conditioning even for problems posed on a semi-infinite interval and subsequently transformed to an essentially singular problem. This is demonstrated by a Matlab implementation of the solution method based on an adaptive collocation scheme which is well suited to solve problems of practical relevance. As one example, we compute solution branches for the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation which start from non-monotone 'multi-bump' solutions of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Following the branches around turning points, real-valued solutions of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation can easily be computed.

Summary: The study investigates the chaos phenomenon in the mean-field limit of a bosonic quantum many-body system, demonstrating that the system rapidly loses coherence with a rate determined by the Lyapunov exponent, which in turn affects the visibility of interference fringes.
