We consider the local well-posedness for 3-D quadratic semi-linear wave equations with radial data: $\Box u = a |\partial_t u|^2+b|\nabla_x u|^2$, $u(0,x)=u_0(x)\in H^{s}_{\mathrm{rad}}$, $\partial_t u(0,x)=u_1(x)\in…
We consider the semilinear equation $$ \epsilon^{2s} (-\Delta)^s u + V(x)u - u^p = 0, \quad u>0, \quad u\in H^{2s}(\R^N) $$ where $0<s<1,\ 1<p<\frac{N+2s}{N-2s}$, $ V(x)$ is a sufficiently smooth potential with $\inf_\R V(x)> 0$, and…
