Abstract

We construct a two-parameter continuum of type II blow up solutions for the energy-critical focusing NLS in dimension d=3 d = 3. The solutions collapse to a single energy bubble in finite time, precisely they have the form u(t,x)=eiα(t)λ(t)12W(λ(t)x)+η(t,x) u(t,x) = e^{i \alpha(t)}\lambda(t)^{\frac{1}{2}}W(\lambda(t) x) + \eta(t, x ), t[0,T) t \in[0, T), xR3 x \in \mathbb{R}^3, where W(x)=(1+x23)12 W( x) = \big( 1 + \frac{|x|^2}{3}\big)^{-\frac{1}{2}} is the ground state solution, λ(t)=(Tt)12ν\lambda(t) = (T-t)^{- \frac12 - \nu} for suitable ν>0 \nu > 0 , α(t)=α0log(Tt) \alpha(t) = \alpha_0 \log(T - t) and T=T(ν,α0)>0 T= T(\nu, \alpha_0) > 0 . Further η(t)ηTH˙1H˙2=o(1) \|\eta(t) - \eta_T\|_{\dot{H}^1 \cap \dot{H}^2} = o(1) as tT t \to T^- for some ηTH˙1 H˙2 \eta_T \in \dot{H}^{1} \cap~ \dot{H}^2.
