We consider the energy supercritical defocusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $i\partial_tu+\Delta u-u|u|^{p-1}=0$ in dimension $d\ge 5$. In a suitable range of energy supercritical parameters $(d,p)$, we prove the existence of $\mathcal…
We consider singular solutions of the biharmonic NLS. In the L^2-critical case, the blowup rate is bounded by a quartic-root power law, the solution approaches a self-similar profile, and a finite amount of L^2-norm, which is no less than…
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 study the formation of singularity for the isothermal Euler-Poisson system arising from plasma physics. Contrast to the previous studies yielding only limited information on the blow-up solutions, for instance, sufficient conditions for…

We show uniqueness of classical solutions of the normalised two-dimensional Hamilton-Ricci flow on closed, smooth manifolds for smooth data among solutions satisfying (essentially) only a uniform bound for the Liouville energy and a natural…
We present novel self-similar finite-time blowup scenarios for the 1D Hou--Luo model. We numerically demonstrate that solutions that initially satisfy certain derivative degeneracy condition can develop asymptotically self-similar…
In this paper, we study the blow-up phenomena on the $\alpha_k$-harmonic map sequences with bounded uniformly $\alpha_k$-energy, denoted by $\{u_{\alpha_k}: \alpha_k>1 \quad \mbox{and} \quad \alpha_k\searrow 1\}$, from a compact Riemann…
We consider the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system in three dimensions and higher, corresponding to the mass supercritical case. We construct rigorously a solution which blows up in finite time by having its mass concentrating near a…
We study energy critical one-equivariant wave maps taking values in the two-sphere. It is known that any finite energy wave map that develops a singularity does so by concentrating the energy of (possibly) several copies of the ground state…
We study the problem of resolving singularities via the blow-up of the module of derivations. Our main results are a positive answer for the case of curves and log-canonical surface singularities, i.e., a finite sequence of blow-ups along…
It is well-known that the two-dimensional Keller-Segel system admits finite time blowup solutions, which is the case if the initial density has a total mass greater than $8\pi$ and a finite second moment. Several constructive examples of…
We present numerical evidence that singularities form in finite time during the evolution of 2+1 wave maps from spherically equivariant initial data of sufficient energy.
In this paper, we investigate the formation of singularity for general two dimensional and radially symmetric solutions for rotating shallow water system from different aspects. First, the formation of singularity is proved via the study…
We construct examples of finite time singularity from smooth data for linear uniformly parabolic systems in the plane. We obtain similar examples for quasilinear systems with coefficients that depend only on the solution.
We consider solutions to the hyperbolic system of equations of ideal granular hydrodynamics with conserved mass, total energy and finite momentum of inertia and prove that these solutions generically lose the initial smoothness within a…
In this article we study the structure of solutions to the one-phase Bernoulli problem that are modeled either infinitesimally or at infinity by one-homogeneous solutions with an isolated singularity. In particular, we prove a uniqueness of…

We derive the universal collapse law of degree 1 equivariant wave maps (solutions of the sigma-model) from the 2+1 Minkowski space-time,to the 2-sphere. To this end we introduce a nonlinear transformation from original variables to blowup…
