In this work, we investigate the blow-up of solutions to the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (gSQG) equation in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$, within the more singular range $\beta\in(1,2)$ for the coupling of the velocity field. This behavior is…

We study singularity formation in two one-dimensional nonlinear wave models with quadratic time-derivative nonlinearities. The non-null model violates the null condition and typically develops finite-time blow-up; the null-form model is…
Inspired by recent developments in Berdina-like models for turbulence, we propose an inviscid regularization for the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations. We are particularly interested in the celebrated question of blowup in finite…
The paper addresses the question of existence of a locally self-similar blow-up for the incompressible Euler equations. Several exclusion results are proved based on the $L^p$-condition for velocity or vorticity and for a range of scaling…
We study finite-time blow-up for the one-dimensional nonlinear wave equation with a quadratic time-derivative nonlinearity, \[ u_{tt}-u_{xx}=(u_t)^2,\qquad (x,t)\in\mathbb R\times[0,T). \] Building on the work of Ghoul, Liu, and Masmoudi…
We prove the nonexistence of local self-similar solutions of the three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The local self-similar solutions we consider here are different from the global self-similar solutions. The…
In this note we study locally self-similar blow up for the Euler equation. The main result states that under a mild $L^p$-growth assumption on the profile $v$, namely, $\int_{|y| \sim L} |v|^p dy \lesssim L^{\g}$ for some $\g <p-2$, the…
This paper studies of a variation of the hyperbolic blow up scenario suggested by Hou and Luo's recent numerical simulation [12]. In particular, we propose a "hyperbolic" surface quasi-geostrophic equation characterized by a incompressible…
We study stable blow-up dynamics in the generalized Hartree equation with radial symmetry, a Schr\"odinger-type equation with a nonlocal, convolution-type nonlinearity: $iu_t+\Delta u +\left(|x|^{-(d-2)} \ast |u|^{p} \right) |u|^{p-2}u = 0,…
In this paper we consider self-similar blow-up solutions for the generalized deterministic KPZ~equation $u_t = u_{xx} + \lambda \vert u_x \vert ^q, \lambda > 0, q > 2.$ The asymptotic behavior of self-similar solutions are studied.
We study the blow up profiles associated to the following second order reaction-diffusion equation with non-homogeneous reaction: $$ \partial_tu=\partial_{xx}(u^m) + |x|^{\sigma}u, $$ with $\sigma>0$. Through this study, we show that the…

We construct examples of solutions to the conservative surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation that must either exhibit infinite in time growth of derivatives or blow up in finite time.
We prove finite time blowup of the Burgers-Hilbert equation. We construct smooth initial data with finite $H^5$-norm such that the $L^\infty$-norm of the spacial derivative of the solution blows up. The blowup is an asymptotic self-similar…
