We study singularity formation in two one-dimensional nonlinear wave models with quadratic time-derivative nonlinearities. The non-null model violates the null condition and typically develops finite-time blow-up; the null-form model is…
We consider the wave equation with focusing power nonlinearity. The associated ODE in time gives rise to a self-similar solution known as the ODE blowup. We prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of this blowup mechanism outside of radial…
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…
We study the blowup behavior of a class of strongly perturbed wave equations with a focusing supercritical power nonlinearity in three spatial dimensions. We show that the ODE blowup profile of the unperturbed equation still describes the…
We consider the wave equation with a focusing cubic nonlinearity in higher odd space dimensions without symmetry restrictions on the data. We prove that there exists an open set of initial data such that the corresponding solution exists in…
In this note, we investigate the stability of self-similar blow-up solutions for superconformal semilinear wave equations in all dimensions. A central aspect of our analysis is the spectral equivalence of the linearized operators under…
For the quasilinear wave equation \partial_t^2u - \Delta u = u_t u_{tt}, we analyze the long-time behavior of classical solutions with small (not rotationally invariant) data. We give a complete asymptotic expansion of the lifespan and…
We prove a stable shock formation result for a large class of systems of quasilinear wave equations in two spatial dimensions. We give a precise description of the dynamics all the way up to the singularity. Our main theorem applies to…
We study singularity formation for the focusing quadratic wave equation in the energy supercritical case, i.e., for $d \geq 7$. We find in closed form a new, non-trivial, radial, self-similar blowup solution $u^*$ which exists for all $d…
We study the stability of an explicitly known, non-trivial self-similar blowup solution of the quadratic wave equation in the lowest energy supercritical dimension $d = 7$. This solution blows up at a single point and extends naturally away…
We study the blowup behavior for the focusing energy-supercritical semilinear wave equation in 3 space dimensions without symmetry assumptions on the data. We prove the stability of the ODE blowup profile.
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 $a\in \mathbb R$, with subconformal power nonlinearity. We…
We consider the blow-up of solutions to the following parameterized nonlinear wave equation: $ u_{tt} = c(u)^{2} u_{xx} + \lambda c(u)c'(u)( u_x)^2$ with the real parameter $\lambda$. In previous works, it was reported that there exist…
We study the focusing power nonlinear wave equation with any power, in Minkowski space of any spacetime dimension. We present a complete understanding of the local stability and scattering theory (both in high regularity spaces) for…
In an influential 1964 article, P. Lax studied $2 \times 2$ genuinely nonlinear strictly hyperbolic PDE systems (in one spatial dimension). Using the method of Riemann invariants, he showed that a large set of smooth initial data lead to…
In his 2007 monograph, D. Christodoulou proved a breakthrough result giving a detailed description of the formation of shocks in solutions to the relativistic Euler equations in three spatial dimensions. He assumed that the data have small…
We consider the radial focusing energy critical nonlinear wave equation in three spatial dimensions. We establish the stability of the ODE-blowup under random perturbations below the energy space. The argument relies on probabilistic…
The paper is devoted to the study of shock formation of the 3-dimensional quasilinear wave equation \begin{equation}\label{Main Equation} - \big(1+3G^{\prime\prime}(0) (\partial_t\phi)^2\big)\partial^2_t \phi…
In this paper we report on numerical studies of formation of singularities for the semilinear wave equations with a focusing power nonlinearity $u_{tt} - \Delta u = u^{p}$ in three space dimensions. We show that for generic large initial…
We discuss the (in)stability of solitary waves for a quasi-linear Schr{\"o}dinger equation. The equation contains a quasi-linear term, responsible for a saturation effect, as well as a power nonlinearity. For different exponents of the…
