This paper is concerned with finite blow-up solutions of a one dimensional complex-valued semilinear heat equation. We provide locations and the number of blow-up points from the viewpoint of zeros of the solution.
We explore BPS strings in supergravity theories in six-dimensions and related Swampland Conjectures. We first propose a general modular ansatz for bootstrapping elliptic genera of 2d worldvolume theories on strings in the 6d theories. By…
We consider non-topological solutions of a nonlinear elliptic system problem derived from the $SU(3)$ Chern-Simons models in $\mathbb{R}^2$. The existence of non-topological solutions even for radial symmetric case has been a long standing…
Five types of blow-up patterns that can occur for the 4th-order semilinear parabolic equation of reaction-diffusion type $$ u_t= -\Delta^2 u + |u|^{p-1} u \quad {in} \quad \ren \times (0,T), p>1, \quad \lim_{t \to T^-}\sup_{x \in \ren}…
5d Superconformal Field Theories (SCFTs) are intrinsically strongly-coupled UV fixed points, whose realization hinges on string theoretic methods: they can be constructed by compactifying M-theory on local Calabi-Yau threefold singularities…
In this paper we prove the blow-up theorem in the critical case for weakly coupled systems of semilinear wave equations in high dimensions. The upper bound of the lifespan of the solution is precisely clarified.
This article is the continued version of the analytical blowup solutions for 2-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations in "M.W. Yuen, Analytical Blowup Solutions to the 2-dimensional Isothermal Euler-Poisson Equations of Gaseous Stars, J. Math.…
We study how different types of blow-ups can occur in systems of hyperbolic evolution equations of the type found in general relativity. In particular, we discuss two independent criteria that can be used to determine when such blow-ups can…
We give blow-up analysis for the solutions of an elliptic equation under some conditions. Also, we derive a compactness result for this equation.
This paper is concerned with the construction of extremal elliptic K3 surfaces. It gives a complete treatment of those fibrations which can be derived from rational elliptic surfaces by easy manipulations of their Weierstrass equations. In…
In this work we explore the relation between orbifold singularities and higher form symmetries. Using the geometric engineering dictionary, we argue that the discrete higher symmetries of 5d SCFTs constructed from M-theory on a non-compact…
We verify the critical case $p=p_0(n)$ of Strauss' conjecture (1981) concerning the blow-up of solutions to semilinear wave equations with variable coefficients in $\mathbf{R}^n$, where $n\geq 2$. The perturbations of Laplace operator are…
F-theory, as a 12-dimensional theory that is a contender of the Theory of Everything, should be compactified into elliptically fibered threefolds or fourfolds of Calabi-Yau. Such manifolds have an elliptic curve as a fiber, and their bases…
We improve Gross-Wilson's local estimates to global ones. As an application, we study the blow-up limits of the degenerating Calabi-Yau metrics on singular fibers.
We consider equivariant wave maps from $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ to $\mathbb{S}^d$ in supercritical dimensions $3\leq d\leq 6$. Using mixed numerical and analytic methods, we show that the threshold of blowup is given by the codimension-one stable…
The blow-up rate estimate for the solution to a semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=\Delta u+V(x) |u|^{p-1}u$ in $\Omega \times (0,T)$ with 0-Dirichlet boundary condition is obtained. As an application, it is shown that the asymptotic…
We study 6d superconformal field theories (SCFTs) compactified on a circle with arbitrary twists. The theories obtained after compactification, often referred to as 5d Kaluza-Klein (KK) theories, can be viewed as starting points for RG…
We study blowup solutions of the 6D energy critical heat equation $u_t=\Delta u+|u|^{p-1}u$ in $\R^n\times(0,T)$. A goal of this paper is to show the existence of type II blowup solutions predicted by Filippas, Herrero and Vel\'azquez…
In this work we study the blow-up of solutions of a weakly coupled system of damped semilinear wave equations in the scattering case with power nonlinearities. We apply an iteration method to study both the subcritical case and the critical…
We show that the full non-perturbative topological string free energy, in the holomorphic limit, follows simply from a target space integrating out calculation of M2 states. Qualitatively, this is the same as the calculation performed by…
