The Skyrme model is a geometric field theory and a quasilinear modification of the Nonlinear Sigma Model (Wave Maps). In this paper, we study the development of singularities for the equivariant Skyrme Model, in the strong-field limit, where the restoration of scale invariance allows us to look for self-similar blow-up behavior. After introducing the Skyrme Model and reviewing what’s known about formation of singularities in equivariant Wave Maps, we prove the existence of smooth self-similar solutions to the [Formula: see text]-dimensional Skyrme Model in the strong-field limit, and use that to conclude that the solution to the corresponding Cauchy problem blows-up in finite time, starting from a particular class of everywhere smooth initial data.

Abstract This paper investigates the problem of the existence and uniqueness of solutions under the generalized self-similar forms to the space-fractional diffusion equation. Therefore, through applying the properties of Schauder’s and Banach’s fixed point theorems; we establish several results on the global existence and blow-up of generalized self-similar solutions to this equation.

We present evolution arguments of studying uniqueness and asymptotic stability of blow-up self-similar solutions of second-order nonlinear parabolic equations from combustion and filtration theory. The analysis uses intersection comparison techniques based on the Sturm Theorem on zero set for linear parabolic equations. We show that both uniqueness and stability of similarity ODE profiles are directly related to the asymptotic structure of their domain of attraction relative to the corresponding parabolic evolution.

We study evolution properties of boundary blow-up for 2mth-order quasilinear parabolic equations in the case where, for homogeneous power nonlinearities, the typical asymptotic behaviour is described by exact or approximate self-similar solutions. Existence and asymptotic stability of such similarity solutions are established by energy estimates and contractivity properties of the rescaled flows.Further asymptotic results are proved for more general equations by using energy estimates related to Saint-Venant's principle. The established estimates of propagation of singularities generated by boundary blow-up regimes are shown to be sharp by comparing with various self-similar patterns.

AbstractWe consider the energy supercritical defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$\begin{aligned} i\partial _tu+\Delta u-u|u|^{p-1}=0 \end{aligned}$$ i ∂ t u + Δ u - u | u | p - 1 = 0 in dimension $$d\ge 5$$ d ≥ 5 . In a suitable range of energy supercritical parameters (d, p), we prove the existence of $${\mathcal {C}}^\infty $$ C ∞ well localized spherically symmetric initial data such that the corresponding unique strong solution blows up in finite time. Unlike other known blow up mechanisms, the singularity formation does not occur by concentration of a soliton or through a self similar solution, which are unknown in the defocusing case, but via a front mechanism. Blow up is achieved by compression for the associated hydrodynamical flow which in turn produces a highly oscillatory singularity. The front blow up profile is chosen among the countable family of $${\mathcal {C}}^\infty $$ C ∞ spherically symmetric self similar solutions to the compressible Euler equation whose existence and properties in a suitable range of parameters are established in the companion paper (Merle et al. in Preprint (2019)) under a non degeneracy condition which is checked numerically.

We study the self-similar solutions of the quasilinear parabolic equationWe show that there is an exponentsuch that if σ> then the equation admits a countable set {uk(x, t)} of self-similar blow-up solutions. These solutions have the formwhere T> 0 is a finite blow-up time, θ(ξ) solves a nonlinear ODE and each function uk(x, t) is nonconstant in a neighbourhood of the origin and has exactly k maxima and minima for x ≧ 0. There is a further critical exponent σ = ф such that if σ > ф there is a second set of self-similar solutions which are constant (in x) in a neighbourhood of the origin. We conjecture (and provide formal arguments and numerical evidence for) the existence of an infinite sequence σk→σ∞ of critical values, such that σ1 = 0 and uk exists only in the range σ>σk (when σ> 0 the equation has no nontrivial self-similar solutions). The proof of existence when σ>σ∞(σ>ф) is obtained by a combination of comparison and dynamical systems arguments and relates the existence of the self-similar solutions to a homoclinic bifurcation in an appropriate phase-space.
