We study development of singularities for the spherically symmetric Yang-Mills equations in $d+1$ dimensional Minkowski spacetime for $d=4$ (the critical dimension) and $d=5$ (the lowest supercritical dimension). Using combined numerical…
We consider an explicit self-similar solution to an energy-supercritical Yang-Mills equation and prove its mode stability. Based on earlier work by one of the authors, we obtain a fully rigorous proof of the nonlinear stability of the…
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for an energy-supercritical nonlinear wave equation in odd space dimensions that arises in equivariant Yang-Mills theory. In each dimension, there is a self-similar finite-time blowup solution…
We prove the existence of equivariant finite time blow up solutions for the wave map problem from 2+1 dimensions into the 2-sphere. These solutions are the sum of a dynamically rescaled ground-state harmonic map plus a radiation term. The…
We consider the Yang-Mills problem on $\mathbb{R}^{1+4}$ with gauge group $SO(4)$. In an appropriate equivariant reduction, this Yang-Mills problem reduces to a single scalar semilinear wave equation. This semilinear equation admits a…
We exhibit stable finite time blow up regimes for the energy critical co-rotational Wave Map with the S^2 target in all homotopy classes and for the critical equivariant SO(4) Yang-Mills problem. We derive sharp asymptotics on the dynamics…
We consider corotational wave maps from Minkowski spacetime into the sphere and the equivariant Yang-Mills equation for all energy-supercritical dimensions. Both models have explicit self-similar finite time blowup solutions, which continue…
In this paper, we study the blow-up of a sequence of Yang-Mills connection with bounded energy on a four manifold. We prove a set of equations relating the geometry of the bubble connection at the infinity with the geometry of the limit…
We consider the $SO(d)$-equivariant Yang-Mills heat flow \begin{equation*} \partial_t u-\partial_r^2 u-\frac{(d-3)}{r}\partial_r u+\frac{(d-2)}{r^2}u(1-u)(2-u)=0 \end{equation*} in dimensions $d>10.$ We construct a family of…
We consider the Cauchy problem for an energy supercritical nonlinear wave equation that arises in $(1+5)$--dimensional Yang--Mills theory. A certain self--similar solution $W_0$ of this model is conjectured to act as an attractor for…
In this paper, we consider the heat flow for Yang-Mills connections on $\mathbb{R}^5 \times SO(5)$. In the $SO(5)-$equivariant setting, the Yang-Mills heat equation reduces to a single semilinear reaction-diffusion equation for which an…
We continue our work \cite{Glo22a} on the analysis of spatially global stability of self-similar blowup profiles for semilinear wave equations in the radial case. In this paper we study the Yang-Mills equations in $(1+d)$-dimensional…
We consider the Yang-Mills equations in $(1+d)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. It is known that in the supercritical case, i.e., for $d \geq 5$, these equations admit closed form equivariant self-similar blowup solutions \cite{BieBiz15}.…
Exact renormalization group techniques are applied to mass deformed N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, viewed as a regularised N=2 model. The solution of the flow equation, in the local potential approximation, reproduces the one-loop…
In this paper we give a unified proof to the soliton resolution conjecture along a sequence of times, for the semilinear focusing energy critical wave equations in the radial case and two dimensional equivariant wave map equations,…
In this paper, we construct an infinite-dimensional family of solutions for the Yang-Mills flow on $\mathbb{R}^n \times SO(n)$ for $5 \leq n \leq 9$, which converge to $SO(n)$-equivariant homothetically shrinking solitons, modulo the gauge…
The Einstein-Yang-Mills equations are the source of many interesting solutions within general relativity, including families of particle-like and black hole solutions, and critical phenomena of more than one type. These solutions,…
The explicit one-loop renormalizability of pure Yang-Mills theory with Lorentz violation is demonstrated. The result is consistent with multiplicative renormalization as the required counter terms are consistent with a single re-scaling of…
We study singularity formation in spherically symmetric solutions of the charge-one and charge-two sector of the (2+1)-dimensional S^2 sigma-model and the (4+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills model, near the adiabatic limit. These equations are…
The form of the quantum Yang-Mills action, under a longitudinal rescaling is determined using a Wilsonian renormalization group. The high-energy limit, is the extreme limit of such a rescaling. We compute the anomalous dimensions and…
