In this paper, vacuum and singularity formation are considered for compressible Euler equations with time-dependent damping. For $1<\gamma\leq 3$, by constructing some new control functions ingeniously, we obtain the lower bounds estimates…
In a previous work with Tai-Peng Tsai, the author studied the dynamics of axisymmetric, swirl-free Euler equation in four and higher dimensions. One conclusion of this analysis is that the dynamics become dramatically more singular as the…
The aim of this note is to present the recent results in [Buckmaster, Cao-Labora, G\'omez-Serrano, arXiv:2208.09445, 2022], concerning the existence of "imploding singularities" for the 3D isentropic compressible Euler and Navier-Stokes…
Under the assumption that a solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations blows up at a time $T_\ast$ and that $T_\ast $ is the first such time, we establish lower bounds on the rate of blow-up of the maximum norm of the vorticity. In…
In this paper, we prove the blow-up of the $3$-D isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations for the adiabatic exponent $\gamma=5/3$, which corresponds to the law of monatomic gases. This is the degenerate case in the sense of [Merle,…
We consider asymptotically self-similar blow-up profiles of the thin film equation consisting of a stabilising fourth order and destabilising second order term. It has previously been shown that blow up is only possible when the exponent in…
We present a self-contained interior quadrupole mechanism for finite-time singularity formation in the axisymmetric three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations with swirl in the whole space. The construction is localized away from the…
Initial results from new calculations of interacting anti-parallel Euler vortices are presented with the objective of understanding the origins of singular scaling presented by Kerr (1993) and the lack thereof by Hou and Li (2006). Core…
We introduce a novel mechanism that reveals finite time singularities within the 1D De Gregorio model and the 3D incompressible Euler equations. Remarkably, we do not construct our blow up using self-similar coordinates, but build it from…
We prove finite-time vorticity blowup for smooth solutions of the 2D compressible Euler equations with smooth, localized, and non-vacuous initial data. The vorticity blowup occurs at the time of the first singularity, and is accompanied by…
We prove the finite time blow-up for $C^1$ solutions to the Euler-Poisson equations in $\Bbb R^n$, $n\geq 1$, with/without background density for initial data satisfying suitable conditions. We also find a sufficient condition for the…
This paper studies the non-implosion mechanism for the 3D incompressible Euler equations. We prove that vorticity blows up in finite time, whereas the $L^p_T L^\infty_{loc}$ $(p\in[1,\infty))$ norm of the velocity field remains bounded.…
We classify the finite time blow-up profiles for the following reaction-diffusion equation with unbounded weight: $$ \partial_tu=\Delta u^m+|x|^{\sigma}u^p, $$ posed in any space dimension $x\in\mathbf{R}^N$, $t\geq0$ and with exponents…
We consider the barotropic Euler equations in dimension d>1 with decaying density at spatial infinity. The phase portrait of the nonlinear ode governing the equation for spherically symmetric self-similar solutions has been introduced in…
We consider the blow-up of solutions to the following parameterized nonlinear wave equation: $ u_{tt} = c(u)^{2} u_{xx} + \lambda c(u)c'(u)( u_x)^2$ with the real parameter $\lambda$. In previous works, it was reported that there exist…

We consider in this paper blow-up solutions of the semilinear wave equation in one space dimension, with an exponential source term. Assuming that initial data are in $H^{1}_{loc}\times L^2_{loc}$ or some times in $ W^{1,\infty}\times…
We classify radially symmetric self-similar profiles presenting finite time blow-up to the quasilinear diffusion equation with weighted source $$ u_t=\Delta u^m+|x|^{\sigma}u^p, $$ posed for $(x,t)\in\real^N\times(0,T)$, $T>0$, in dimension…
We construct axisymmetric self-similar solutions of transonic outflows emanating from a point source including the effect of the rotation. The solutions are constructed exclusively on the equatorial plane. The features of solutions are…
