We consider elliptic equations with operators $L=a^{ij}D_{ij}+b^{i}D_{i}-c$ with $a$ being almost in VMO, $b$ in a Morrey class containing $ L_{d}$, and $c\geq0$ in a Morrey class containing $L_{d/2}$. We prove the solvability in Sobolev…
In this paper, we study the focusing and defocusing energy--subcritical, nonlinear wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^{1+d}$ with radial initial data for $d = 4,5$. We prove that if a solution remains bounded in the critical space on its interval…
We study the asymptotic behavior of large data radial solutions to the focusing Schr\"odinger equation $i u_t + \Delta u = -|u|^2 u$ in $\R^3$, assuming globally bounded $H^1(\R^3)$ norm (i.e. no blowup in the energy space). We show that as…
This work concerns the semilinear wave equation in three space dimensions with a power-like nonlinearity which is greater than cubic, and not quintic (i.e. not energy-critical). We prove that a scale-invariant Sobolev norm of any…
We investigate symmetry properties of solutions to equations of the form $$ -\Delta u = \frac{a}{|x|^2} u + f(|x|, u)$$ in R^N for $N \geq 4$, with at most critical nonlinearities. By using geometric arguments, we prove that solutions with…
