We prove that near-threshold negative energy solutions to the 2D cubic ($L^2$-critical) focusing Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) equation blow-up in finite or infinite time. The proof consists of several steps. First, we show that if the blow-up…
We solve the stationary Schr\"odinger equation for a particle confined to a 3D spherical wedge -- the region $\{(r,\theta,\phi): 0 \leq r \leq R,\, 0 \leq \theta \leq \pi,\, 0 \leq \phi \leq \Phi\}$ with Dirichlet BCs on all surfaces. This…
We explore a novel way to numerically resolve the scaling behavior of finite-time singularities in solutions of nonlinear parabolic PDEs. The Runge--Kutta--Legendre (RKL) and Runge--Kutta--Gegenbauer (RKG) super-time-stepping methods were…
Consider the focussing cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in $R^3$: $$ i\psi_t+\Delta\psi = -|\psi|^2 \psi. $$ It admits special solutions of the form $e^{it\alpha}\phi$, where $\phi$ is a Schwartz function and a positive ($\phi>0$)…
