We study the dynamics of corotational wave maps from $\mathbb R^{1+2} \rightarrow \mathbb S^2$ at threshold energy. It is known that topologically trivial wave maps with energy $< 8\pi$ are global and scatter to a constant map. In this…

In this paper we continue the analysis of equivariant wave maps from 2-dimensional hyperbolic space into surfaces of revolution that was initiated in [13, 14]. When the target is the hyperbolic plane we proved in [13] the existence and…

We show how the solutions to a $2\times2$ linear system involving Schr{\"o}dinger operators blow up as the parameter $\mu$ tends to some critical value which is the principal eigenvalue of the system; here the potential is continuous…

In this paper we consider approximations introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck of the harmonic energy for maps from $S^2$ into $S^2$. We continue the analysis in [6] about limits of $\alpha$-harmonic maps with uniformly bounded energy. Using a…
In the present work we examine multi-hump solutions of the nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation in the blowup regime of the one-dimensional model with power law nonlinearity, bearing a suitable exponent of $\sigma>2$. We find that families of…
