We prove the existence of global solutions to the nonlinear wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$ $$\Phi_{tt} - \Delta \Phi \pm \Phi|\Phi|^{p-1} = 0$$ in the energy-supercritical regime $p>5$, for a class of large initial data. Our initial…
Some systems of nonlinear wave equations admit global solutions for all sufficiently small initial data, while others do not. The (classical) null condition guarantees that such a result holds, but it is too strong to capture certain…
We prove small-data global existence to semi-linear wave equations on hyperbolic space of dimension greater than or equal to three, for nonlinearities that have the form of a sufficiently high integer power of the solution. We also prove…

We consider the nonlinear Dirac equation in one dimension, also known as the Soler model in (1+1) dimensions, or the massive Gross-Neveu model: $i\partial_t\psi=-i\alpha\partial_x\psi+m\beta\psi-f(\psi^\ast\beta\psi)\beta\psi$,…
This is the first of two papers devoted to the study of the properties of the blow-up surface for the $N$ dimensional semilinear wave equation with subconformal power nonlinearity. In a series of papers, we have clarified the situation in…
We show global asymptotic stability of solitary waves of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in space dimension 1. Furthermore, the radiation is shown to exhibit long range scattering if the nonlinearity is cubic at the origin, or standard…
We propose the following model equation: \[u_{t}+1/2(u^{2}-uu_{s})_{x}=f(x,u_{s}), \] that predicts chaotic shock waves. It is given on the half-line $x<0$ and the shock is located at $x=0$ for any $t\ge0$. Here $u_{s}(t)$ is the shock…
