Area-preserving maps have been observed to undergo a universal period-doubling cascade, analogous to the famous Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser period doubling cascade in one-dimensional dynamics. A renormalization approach has been used by…
In this work we consider the focusing, energy-critical wave equation in 3D radial case. It has been verified that any global or type II blow-up solution decomposes into a superposition of several decoupled grounds states, a free wave and a…
We consider the quadratic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger system \begin{align*} \begin{cases} i\partial_t u +\Delta u =v \overline{u},\\ i\partial_t v +\kappa \Delta v =u^2, \end{cases} \text{ on } I \times \mathbb{R}^d, \end{align*} where $1\leq…
We study corotational wave maps from $(1+4)$-dimensional Minkowski space into the $4$-sphere. We prove the stability of an explicitly known self-similar wave map under perturbations that are small in the critical Sobolev space.
We consider 1-equivariant wave maps from \R \times (\R^3 \setminus B) to S^3 where B is a ball centered at 0, and the boundary of B gets mapped to a fixed point on S^3. We show that 1-equivariant maps of degree zero scatter to zero…
We consider spherically symmetric supercritical focusing wave equations outside a ball. Using mixed analytical and numerical methods, we show that the threshold for blowup is given by a codimension-one stable manifold of the unique static…

This paper investigates the connection between blow-up solutions of scalar reaction-diffusion equations, in particular of $u_t = u_{xx} + u^2, $ and its counterpart - eternally existing solutions like heteroclinic orbits - by complex time.…
We consider finite energy equivariant solutions for the wave map problem from R2+1 to S2 which are close to the soliton family. We prove asymptotic orbital stability for a codimension two class of initial data which is small with respect to…
We study finite-time blow-up for the one-dimensional nonlinear wave equation with a quadratic time-derivative nonlinearity, \[ u_{tt}-u_{xx}=(u_t)^2,\qquad (x,t)\in\mathbb R\times[0,T). \] Building on the work of Ghoul, Liu, and Masmoudi…
The existence of finite time blowup solutions for the two-dimensional Landau--Lifshitz equation is a long-standing problem, which exists in the literature at least since 2001 (E, Mathematics Unlimited--2001 and Beyond, Springer, Berlin,…
We consider the semilinear wave equation $$\partial_t^2 u -\Delta u =f(u), \quad (x,t)\in \mathbb{R}^N\times [0,T),\qquad (1)$$ with $f(u)=|u|^{p-1}u\log^a (2+u^2)$, where $p>1$ and $a\in \mathbb{R}$. We show an upper bound for any blow-up…
