We are concerned with how regular initial data have to be to ensure local existence for Einstein's equations in wave coordinates. Klainerman-Rodnianski and Smith-Tataru showed that there in general is local existence for data in Sobolev…
In this paper we report on numerical studies of the Cauchy problem for equivariant wave maps from 2+1 dimensional Minkowski spacetime into the two-sphere. Our results provide strong evidence for the conjecture that large energy initial data…
In this paper we prove global well-posedness and scattering for the conformal, defocusing, nonlinear wave equation with radial initial data in the critical Sobolev space, for dimensions $d \geq 4$. This result extends a previous result…
We study the problem of propagation of regularity of solutions to the incompressible viscous non-resistive magneto-hydrodynamics system. According to scaling, the Sobolev space $H^{\frac n2-1}(\mathbb R^n)\times H^{\frac n2}(\mathbb R^n)$…
We study numerically the Cauchy problem for equivariant wave maps from 3+1 Minkowski spacetime into the 3-sphere. On the basis of numerical evidence combined with stability analysis of self-similar solutions we formulate two conjectures.…
It is shown that if the system of the Euler equations has a special global in time smooth solution with the linear profile of velocity, then another solutions with Cauchy data, close in the Sobolev norm to the initial data of the given…
In this note, we prove the global existence of solutions to the semilinear damped wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\leq6$, with critical nonlinearity under the assumption that the initial data are small in the energy space $H^1\times L^2$…
We investigate the continuity properties of the solution operator to the wave map system from the flat Minkowski space to a general nonflat target of arbitrary dimension, and we prove by an explicit class of counterexamples that this map is…
We show that the wave map equation in $\R^{1+1}$ is in general ill-posed in the critical space $\dot H^{1/2}$, and the Besov space $\dot B^{1/2,1}_2$. The problem is attributed to the bad behaviour of the one-dimensional bilinear expression…
In this paper, we will prove a new result that guarantees the global existence of solutions to the Navier--Stokes equation in three dimensions when the initial data is sufficiently close to being two dimensional. This result interpolates…
In this paper, we consider the wave equation in 3-dimensional space with an energy-subcritical nonlinearity, either in the focusing or defocusing case. We show that any radial solution of the equation which is bounded in the critical…
We consider linear and time-dependent perturbations of periodic transport equations on the two-dimensional torus. For generic perturbations, we prove the existence of a large class of initial data whose Sobolev norms diverge exponentially…
We consider co-rotational wave maps from Minkowski space in $d+1$ dimensions to the $d$-sphere. Recently, Bizo\'n and Biernat found explicit self-similar solutions for each dimension $d\geq 4$. We give a rigorous proof for the mode…
We study the energy-critical half-wave maps equation: \[ \partial_t \mathbf{u} = \mathbf{u} \times |D| \mathbf{u} \] for $\mathbf{u} : [0, T) \times \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{S}^2$. Our main result establishes the global existence and…
In this paper we continue the study of the defocusing, energy-subcritical nonlinear wave equation with radial initial data lying in the critical Sobolev space. In this case we prove scattering in the critical norm when $3 < p < 5$.
We show the regularity of, and derive a-priori estimates for (weakly) harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Euclidean sphere under the assumption that the image avoids some neighborhood of a half-equator. The proofs combine…
Let $F : H^q \to H^q$ be a $C^k$-map between Sobolev spaces, either on $\mathbb R^d$ or on a compact manifold. We show that equivariance of $F$ under the diffeomorphism group allows to trade regularity of $F$ as a nonlinear map for…
We consider holomorphic mappings $H$ between a smooth real hypersurface $M\subset \bC^{n+1}$ and another $M'\subset \bC^{N+1}$ with $N\geq n$. We provide conditions guaranteeing that $H$ is transversal to $M'$ along all of $M$. In the…
We consider two-dimensional periodic gravity water waves with constant nonzero vorticity $\gamma$, in infinite depth and with periodic boundary conditions. We prove that, if the characteristic wave number $\frac{\gamma^2}{g}$ is rational,…
We study wave maps from the circle to a general compact Riemannian manifold. We prove that the global controllability of this geometric equation is characterized precisely by the homotopy class of the data. As a remarkable intermediate…
