We set up a general formalism for models of spontaneous wave function collapse with dynamics represented by a stochastic differential equation driven by general Gaussian noises, not necessarily white in time. In particular, we show that the…
We consider the defocusing nonlinear wave equation $u_{tt}-\Delta u + |u|^p u=0$ in the energy-supercritical regime p>4. For even values of the power p, we show that blowup (or failure to scatter) must be accompanied by blowup of the…

We study the nonlinear wave equation with a sign-changing potential in any space dimension. If the potential is small and rapidly decaying, then the existence of small-amplitude solutions is driven by the nonlinear term. If the potential…
