We prove that a solution to the three-dimensional Boussinesq equations does not blow-up at time T if $\| u_{\le Q}\|_{B^1_{\infty, \infty}}$ is integrable on $(0, T)$, where $u_{\le Q }$ represents the low modes of Littlewood-Paley…
In this paper we consider the nonexistence of global solutions of a Klein-Gordon equation of the form \begin{eqnarray*} u_{tt}-\Delta u+m^2u=f(u)& (t,x)\in [0,T)\times\R^n. \end{eqnarray*} Here $m\neq 0$ and the nonlinear power $f(u)$…
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.…
The dispute on whether the three-dimensional (3D) incompressible Euler equations develop an infinitely large vorticity in a finite time (blowup) keeps increasing due to ambiguous results from state-of-the-art direct numerical simulations…
We consider the scaling critical Lebesgue norm of blow-up solutions to the semilinear heat equation $u_t=\Delta u+|u|^{p-1}u$ in an arbitrary smooth domain of $\mathbf{R}^n$. In the range $p>p_S:=(n+2)/(n-2)$, we show that the critical norm…
We unify a few of the best known results on wave breaking for the Camassa--Holm equation (by R. Camassa, A. Constantin, J. Escher, L. Holm, J. Hyman and others) in a single theorem: a sufficient condition for the breakdown is that…
For any $\alpha \in (0,1/3)$, we construct exact $C^{\alpha}$ self-similar blowup profiles for the vorticity of the 3D incompressible Euler equation without swirl, and build on them to prove asymptotically self-similar blowup from…

In this paper we study the Euler-Poincar\'{e} equations in $\Bbb R^N$. We prove local existence of weak solutions in $W^{2,p}(\Bbb R^N),$ $p>N$, and local existence of unique classical solutions in $H^k (\Bbb R^N)$, $k>N/2+3$, as well as a…
We prove finite time blowup of the Burgers-Hilbert equation. We construct smooth initial data with finite $H^5$-norm such that the $L^\infty$-norm of the spacial derivative of the solution blows up. The blowup is an asymptotic self-similar…
We investigate finite-time blow-up for nonnegative solutions to the Cauchy problem associated with semilinear parabolic equations driven by a mixed local--nonlocal operator. The reaction term is assumed to satisfy suitable structural…
In this paper, we consider the wave equation in space dimension 3 with an energy-supercritical, focusing nonlinearity. We show that any radial solution of the equation which is bounded in the critical Sobolev space is globally defined and…

We prove the existence of energy solutions of the energy critical focusing wave equation in R^3 which blow up exactly at x=t=0. They decompose into a bulk term plus radiation term. The bulk is a rescaled version of the stationary "soliton"…

Let us consider an initial data $v_0$ for the homogeneous incompressible 3D Navier-Stokes equation with vorticity belonging to $L^{\frac 32}\cap L^2$. We prove that if the solution associated with $v_0$ blows up at a finite time $T^\star$,…
