The d'Alembertian $\Box\phi=0$ has solution $\phi=f(v)/r$, where $f$ is a function of a null coordinate $v$, and this allows creation of a divergent singularity out of nothing. In scalar-Einstein theory a similar situation arises both for…

We consider generic 2 x 2 singular Liouville systems on a smooth bounded domain in the plane having some symmetry with respect to the origin. We construct a family of solutions to which blow-up at the origin and whose local mass at the…

The subject is partial resolution of singularities. Given an algebraic variety X (not necessarily equidimensional) in characteristic zero (or, more generally, a pair (X,D), where D is a divisor on X), we construct a functorial…

We give an elementary combinatorial proof of the following fact: Every real or complex analytic complete intersection germ X is equisingular -- in the sense of the Hilbert-Samuel function -- with a germ of an algebraic set defined by…

In this paper we will think of certain abelian categories with favorable properties as non-commutative surfaces. We show that under certain conditions a point on a non-commutative surface can be blown up. This yields a new non-commutative…

Real blow-ups and more refined "zooms" play a key role in the analysis of singularities of complex-analytic differential modules. They do not change the underlying topology, but the uniform structure. This suggests to revisit the cohomology…

For $\gamma>0$, we are interested in blow up solutions $u\in C^+(B)$ of the fractional problem in the unit ball $B$ \begin{equation}\label{2nov} \left\{\begin{array} {rcll} \Delta^{\frac{\alpha}{2}} u &=& u^\gamma&\ \text{in }B\\ u &=& 0&\…

We consider the semilinear wave equation with subconformal power nonlinearity in two space dimensions. We construct a finite-time blow-up solution with an isolated characteristic blow-up point at the origin, and a blow-up surface which is…

In this paper we develop a blow up analysis for solutions of a planar semilinear elliptic equation involving exponential nonlinearities. Such solutions describe cosmic strings, and we show how their blow up behaviour is characterised by new…

We give a blow-up behavior for solutions to a problem with singularity and with Dirichlet condition. An application, we have a compactness of the solutions to this Problem with singularity and Lipschitz conditions.

Using results of Gathmann, we prove the following theorem: If a smooth projective variety X has generically semisimple (p,p)-quantum cohomology, then the same is true for the blow-up of X at any number of points. This a successful test for…

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 discuss universality properties of blow-up of a classical (smooth) solutions of conservation laws in one space dimension. It is shown that the renormalized wave profile tends to a universal function, which is independent both of initial…

We study submodules of analytic Hilbert modules defined over certain algebraic varieties in bounded symmetric domains, the so-called Jordan-Kepler varieties $V_\ell$ of arbitrary rank $\ell.$ For $\ell>1$ the singular set of $V_\ell$ is not…

In the perfect conductivity problem, it is interesting to study whether the electric field can become arbitrarily large or not, in a narrow region between two adjacent perfectly conducting inclusions. In this paper, we show that the…

We prove a decomposition theorem of the quantum cohomology D-module of the blowup of a smooth projective variety X along a smooth subvariety Z. The main tools we use are shift operators and Fourier analysis for equivariant quantum…

In this survey we report on some recent results related to various singular phenomena arising in the study of some classes of nonlinear elliptic equations. We establish qualitative results on the existence, nonexistence or the uniqueness of…

We examine the moduli of framed holomorphic bundles over the blowup of a complex surface, by studying a filtration induced by the behavior of the bundles on a neighborhood of the exceptional divisor.

We derive a blow-up dichotomy for positive solutions of fractional semilinear heat equations on the whole space. That is, within a certain class of convex source terms, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition on the source for all…

The question of spontaneous apparition of singularity in the 3D incompressible Euler equations is one of the most important and challenging open problems in mathematical fluid mechanics. In this survey article we review some of recent…
