In this work, we investigate the blow-up of solutions to the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (gSQG) equation in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$, within the more singular range $\beta\in(1,2)$ for the coupling of the velocity field. This behavior is…
In this paper we consider the slightly $L^2$-supercritical gKdV equations $\partial_t u+(u_{xx}+u|u|^{p-1})_x=0$, with the nonlinearity $5<p<5+\varepsilon$ and $0<\varepsilon\ll 1$ . We will prove the existence and stability of a blow-up…
We consider co-rotational wave maps from (1+3)-dimensional Minkowski space into the three-sphere. This model exhibits an explicit blowup solution and we prove the asymptotic nonlinear stability of this solution in the whole space under…

We present a variety of results analyzing the behavior of a class of stochastic processes --- referred to as Stochastic Hybrid Systems (SHSs) --- in or near equilibrium, and determine general conditions on when the moments of the process…
We show the existence of an infinite family of finite-time singularities in isotropically expanding universes which obey the weak, strong, and dominant energy conditions. We show what new type of energy condition is needed to exclude them…
This paper is concerned with the blowup phenomenon of stochastic parabolic equations both on bounded domain and in the whole space. We introduce a new method to study the blowup phenomenon on bounded domain. Comparing with the existing…
This paper considers a class of non-local equations that are weakly dispersive perturbations of the inviscid Burgers equation, which includes the Fornberg-Whitham equation as a special case. We precise the known results on finite time…
We study the singularity formation mechanisms of the inviscid generalized Surface Quasi-Geostrophic (gSQG) equation on the whole space $\mathbb{R}^2$ and on the upper half-plane $\mathbb{R}^2_+$, allowing infinite energy. In each case, we…
The paper deals with initial-boundary value problems for linear non-autonomous first order hyperbolic systems whose solutions stabilize to zero in a finite time. We prove that problems in this class remain exponentially stable in $L^2$ as…
We establish the existence of compactly supported solutions of the inviscid incompressible 2D Boussinesq equation with $C^{1,\sqrt{\frac{4}{3}}-1-\varepsilon}\cap L^{2}$ force that develop a singularity in finite time. Importantly, the…
We consider equations of the type: \[\partial_t \omega = \omega R(\omega),\] for general linear operators $R$ in any spatial dimension. We prove that such equations almost always exhibit finite-time singularities for smooth and localized…

Singularities of the Navier-Stokes equations occur when some derivative of the velocity field is infinite at any point of a field of flow (or, in an evolving flow, becomes infinite at any point within a finite time). Such singularities can…
This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and…
