We establish global well-posedness and scattering for solutions to the mass-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $iu_t + \Delta u = \pm |u|^2 u$ for large spherically symmetric L^2_x(\R^2) initial data; in the focusing case we require,…

In hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ surfaces of constant mean curvature $H$ come in three types, corresponding to the cases $0 \leq H < 1$, $H = 1$, $H > 1$. Via the Lawson correspondence the latter two cases correspond to constant mean…
For a $C^1_{t,x}$ solution $u$ to the incompressible 3D Euler equations, the helicity $H(u(t))=\int_{\mathbb{T}^3} u \cdot \textrm{curl}\, u$ is constant in time. For general low-regularity weak solutions, it is not always clear how to…
