In this paper, we continue our study of equivariant \emph{wave maps on a wormhole} initiated in our companion paper. More precisely, we study finite energy $\ell$--equivariant wave maps from the (1+3)-dimensional spacetime $\mathbb R \times…
In this paper we report on numerical studies of the Cauchy problem for equivariant wave maps from 2+1 dimensional Minkowski spacetime into the two-sphere. Our results provide strong evidence for the conjecture that large energy initial data…
In this paper we prove the soliton resolution conjecture for all times, for all solutions in the energy space, of the co-rotational wave map equation. To our knowledge this is the first such result for all initial data in the energy space…
We consider the wave maps problem with domain $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$ and target $\mathbb{S}^{2}$ in the 1-equivariant, topological degree one setting. In this setting, we recall that the soliton is a harmonic map from $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ to…
We consider the focusing energy-critical wave equation in space dimension $N \geq 3$ for radial data. We study two-bubble solutions, that is solutions which behave as a superposition of two decoupled radial ground states (called bubbles)…
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…
It has been known for a long time that the equivariant 2+1 wave map into the 2-sphere blows up if the initial data are chosen appropriately. Here, we present numerical evidence for the stability of the blow-up phenomenon under explicit…
In the previous papers in this series, the global regularity conjecture for wave maps from two-dimensional Minkowski space $\R^{1+2}$ to hyperbolic space $\H^m$ was reduced to the problem of constructing a minimal-energy blowup solution…
We consider co-rotational wave maps from (3+1) Minkowski space into the three-sphere. This is an energy supercritical model which is known to exhibit finite time blow up via self-similar solutions. The ground state self-similar solution…
In this work we consider the focusing, energy-critical wave equation in 3D radial case. It has been verified that any global or type II blow-up solution decomposes into a superposition of several decoupled grounds states, a free wave and a…
This work concerns a general system of energy-critical wave equations in the Minkowski space of dimension $1+3$. The wave equations are coupled by the nonlinearities, which are homogeneous of degree 5. We prove that any radial solution of…
For Schr\"odinger maps from $\R^2\times\R^+$ to the 2-sphere $\S^2$, it is not known if finite energy solutions can form singularities (``blowup'') in finite time. We consider equivariant solutions with energy near the energy of the…
We construct infinite time bubble tower solutions to the critical wave maps equation taking values in the two-sphere. More precisely, for any integers $k\geq3$ and $J\geq1$, we construct a solution that is global in one time direction, has…

We consider energy-supercritical co-rotational wave maps from Minkowski spacetime to the sphere in odd spatial dimensions. The equation admits an explicit co-rotational self-similar blowup solution, which also induces solutions that blow up…
In this paper, we prove the soliton resolution conjecture for general type II solutions to the focusing energy critical wave equation, in space dimension 3,4 or 5, along a sequence of times. This is an important step towards the full…
In this article we consider large energy wave maps in dimension 2+1, as in the resolution of the threshold conjecture by Sterbenz and Tataru, but more specifically into the unit Euclidean sphere, and study further the dynamics of the…
We study time and space equivariant wave maps from $M\times\RR\rightarrow S^2,$ where $M$ is diffeomorphic to a two dimensional sphere and admits an action of SO(2) by isometries. We assume that metric on $M$ can be written as…
