We consider the self-dual Chern-Simons-Schr\"odinger equation (CSS) under equivariance symmetry. Among others, (CSS) has a static solution $Q$ and pseudoconformal symmetry. We study the conditional stability of pseudoconformal blow-up…
A new condition for the linear dissipative instability of the strong plane shock wave in an arbitrary medium is obtained. The instability of the shock is realized due to the flow instability behind its front, which is similar to the known…

We consider the two dimensional $L^2$ critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $i\pa_tu+\Delta u+u|u|^2=0$. In the pioneering work \cite{BW}, Bourgain and Wang have constructed smooth solutions which blow up in finite time $T<+\infty$ with…

We consider the focusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with inverse square potential \[ i\partial_t u + \Delta u + c|x|^{-2} u = - |u|^\alpha u, \quad u(0) = u_0 \in H^1, \quad (t,x) \in \mathbb{R}^+ \times \mathbb{R}^d, \] where $d \geq…
Numerical-relativity simulation is performed for rapidly spinning black holes (BHs) in a higher-dimensional spacetime of special symmetries for the dimensionality $6 \leq d \leq 8$. We find that higher-dimensional BHs, spinning rapidly…
In aggregation-fragmentation processes, a steady state is usually reached in the long time limit. This indicates the existence of a fixed point in the underlying system of ordinary differential equations. The next simplest possibility is an…
The well-known bar instability of rotationally-supported disk galaxy models has been studied extensively since its first discovery over half a century ago. We were therefore very surprised to find cases of disks embedded in rigid halos,…

The theory of linear dispersive equations predicts that waves should spread out and disperse over time. However, it is a remarkable phenomenon, observed both in theory and practice, that once nonlinear effects are taken into account,…

Previous experiments have revealed that shock waves in thermally relaxing gases, such as ionizing, dissociating and vibrationally excited gases, can become unstable. To date, the mechanism controlling this instability has not been resolved.…
