We prove uniqueness of blow up solutions of the mean field equation as $\rho_n \rightarrow 8\pi m$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$. If $u_{n,1}$ and $u_{n,2}$ are two sequences of bubbling solutions with the same $\rho_n$ and the same (non degenerate)…
We consider an elliptic equation in a cone, endowed with (possibly inhomogeneous) Neumann conditions. The operator and the forcing terms can also allow non-Lipschitz singularities at the vertex of the cone. In this setting, we provide…
We consider the nonlinear half laplacian heat equation $$ u_t+(-\Delta)^{\frac{1}{2}} u-|u|^{p-1}u=0,\quad \mathbb{R}^n\times (0, T). $$ We prove that all blows-up are type I, provided that $n \leq 4$ and $ 1<p<p_{*} (n)$ where $ p_{*} (n)$…

In this paper we report on numerical studies of formation of singularities for the semilinear wave equations with a focusing power nonlinearity $u_{tt} - \Delta u = u^{p}$ in three space dimensions. We show that for generic large initial…
We extend some convergence results on nonsingular compact Ricci flows in the papers \cite{Ha:1}, \cite{Se:1} and \cite{FZZ:2} to certain infinite volume noncompact cases which are "partially" nonsingular. As an application, for a finite…
In this note, we consider blow-up for solutions of the SU(3) Toda system on a compact surface \Sigma. In particular, we give a complete proof of the compactness result stated by Jost, Lin and Wang and we extend it to the case of…
Exceptional points describe the coalescence of the eigenmodes of a non-Hermitian matrix. When an exceptional point occurs in the unitary evolution of a many-body system, it generically leads to a dynamical instability with a finite…
We complete the explicit study of a three-fold divisorial contraction whose exceptional divisor contracts to a point, by treating the case where the point downstairs is a singularity of index $n \ge 2$. We prove that if this singularity is…
We study the possibility of finite-time blow-up for a two dimensional Broadwell model. In a set of rescaled variables, we prove that no self-similar blow-up solution exists, and derive some a priori bounds on the blow-up rate. In the final…
For the focusing cubic wave equation, we find an explicit, non-trivial self-similar blowup solution $u^*_T$, which is defined on the whole space and exists in all supercritical dimensions $d \geq 5$. For $d=7$, we analyze its stability…
In this paper, we revisit the problem of finite-time blowup for a multi-dimensional nonlocal transport equation studied in [Dong, Adv. Math. 264 (2014) 747-761]. Inspired by a one-dimensional analogous model considered in [Li-Rodrigo, Adv.…
