We propose a practical method for analyzing stability of Q-balls for the whole parameter space, which includes the intermediate region between the thin-wall limit and thick-wall limit as well as Q-bubbles (Q-balls in false vacuum), using…

We consider the 4$d$ mass-energy double critical NLS \[ (i\partial_t+\Delta)u = -|u|^2 u + |u| u. \] In Luo (2024) and Cheng--Miao--Zhao (2016), the authors established a scattering/blowup dichotomy for solutions satisfying the energy…

We introduce a determining wavenumber for the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation defined for each individual trajectory and then study its dependence on the force. While in the subcritical and critical cases this wavenumber has a…

We construct blow-up solutions of the energy critical wave map equation on $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}\to \mathcal N$ with polynomial blow-up rate ($t^{-1-\nu}$ for blow-up at $t=0$) in the case when $\mathcal{N}$ is a surface of revolution. Here we…

We prove that the critical Wave Maps equation with target $S^2$ and origin $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$ admits energy class blow up solutions of the form $$u(t,r)=Q(\lambda(t)r)+\epsilon(t,r)$$where $Q: \mathbb{R}^2 \to S^2$ is the ground state…

The paper considers the wave equation, with constant or variable coefficients in $\R^n$, with odd $n\geq 3$. We study the asymptotics of the distribution $\mu_t$ of the random solution at time $t\in\R$ as $t\to\infty$. It is assumed that…

We construct the 'threshold manifold' near the soliton for the mass critical gKdV equation, completing results obtained in arXiv:1204.4625 and arXiv:1204.4624. In a neighborhood of the soliton, this C1 manifold of codimension one separates…

In this work, we consider the energy-supercritical defocusing cubic nonlinear wave equation in dimension d=5 for radially symmetric initial data. We prove that an a priori bound in the critical space implies global well-posedness and…

We consider the energy-critical wave maps equation $\mathbb R^{1+2} \to \mathbb S^2$ in the equivariant case, with equivariance degree $k \geq 2$. It is known that initial data of energy $ < 8k\pi$ and topological degree zero leads to…

It has been stated that for a short-ranged surface interaction, the probability of a low-energy particle sticking to a surface always vanishes as $s\sim k$ with $k\to 0$ where $k=\sqrt{E}$. Deviations from this so-called universal threshold…
