Consider the equation $-\ve^2\Delta u_\ve+q(x)u_\ve=f(u_\ve)$ in $\R^3$, $|u(\infty)|<\infty$, $\ve=const>0$. Under what assumptions on $q(x)$ and $f(u)$ can one prove that the solution $u_\ve$ exists and $\lim_{\ve\to 0} u_\ve=u(x)$, where…

On $(M,g)$ a compact riemannian $4-$manifold we consider the prescribed $Q-$curvature equation defined on $M$ with finite singular sources. We first prove a classification theorem for singular Liouville equations defined on $\mathbb R^4$…

We construct finite time blow-up solutions to the 2-dimensional harmonic map flow into the sphere $S^2$, \begin{align*} u_t & = \Delta u + |\nabla u|^2 u \quad \text{in } \Omega\times(0,T) \\ u &= \varphi \quad \text{on } \partial…

In this work we consider the boundary blow-up problem $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta u = f(u) & \hbox{in } B\\ \ \ u=+\infty & \hbox{on }\partial B \end{array} \right. $$ where $B$ stands for the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^N$ and $f$ is…

It is shown that the curvature function satisfies a nonlinear evolution equation under the general curve shortening flow and a detailed asymptotic behavior of the closed curves is presented when they contract to a point in finite time.

In this paper we perform a refined blow up analysis of finite energy approximated solutions to a Nirenberg type problem on half spheres. The later consists of prescribing, under minimal boundary conditions, the scalar curvature to be a…

In this note, we study Liouville type theorem for conformal Gaussian curvature equation (also called the mean field equation) $$ -\Delta u=K(x)e^u, in R^2 $$ where $K(x)$ is a smooth function on $R^2$. When $K(x)=K(x_1)$ is a sign-changing…

For the critical focusing wave equation \Box u = u^5 on R^{3+1} in the radial case, we prove the existence of type II blow up solutions with scaling parameter \lambda(t) = t^{-1-\nu} for all \nu >0. This extends the previous work by the…

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…
