Blow-up results for systems of nonlinear Schrödinger equations with quadratic interaction

We establish blow-up results for systems of NLS equations with quadratic interaction in anisotropic spaces. We precisely show finite time blow-up or grow-up for cylindrical symmetric solutions. With our construction, we moreover prove some polynomial lower bounds on the kinetic energy of global solutions in the mass-critical case, which in turn implies grow-up along any diverging time sequence. Our analysis extends to general NLS systems with quadratic interactions, and it also provides improvements of known results in the radial case.

Stability of a Point Charge for the Vlasov–Poisson System: The Radial Case

We consider the Vlasov–Poisson system with repulsive interactions. For initial data a small, radial, absolutely continuous perturbation of a point charge, we show that the solution is global and disperses to infinity via a modified scattering along trajectories of the linearized flow. This is done by an exact integration of the linearized equation, followed by the analysis of the perturbed Hamiltonian equation in action-angle coordinates.

Backward Shift and Nearly Invariant Subspaces of Fock-type Spaces

We study the structure of the backward shift invariant and nearly invariant subspaces in weighted Fock-type spaces ${\mathcal{F}}_W^p$, whose weight is not necessarily radial. We show that in the spaces ${\mathcal{F}}_W^p$, which contain the polynomials as a dense subspace (in particular, in the radial case), all nontrivial backward shift invariant subspaces are of the form $\mathcal{P}_n$, that is, finite-dimensional subspaces consisting of polynomials of degree at most $n$. In general, the structure of the nearly invariant subspaces is more complicated. In the case of spaces of slow growth (up to zero exponential type), we establish an analogue of de Branges’ ordering theorem. We then construct examples that show that the result fails for general Fock-type spaces of larger growth.

Erdélyi–Kober fractional integrals and radon transforms for mutually orthogonal affine planes

We apply Erdélyi–Kober fractional integrals to the study of Radon type transforms that take functions on the Grassmannian of j-dimensional affine planes in ℝn to functions on a similar manifold of k-dimensional planes by integration over the set of all j-planes that meet a given k-plane at a right angle. We obtain explicit inversion formulas for these transforms in the class of radial functions under minimal assumptions for all admissible dimensions. The general (not necessarily radial) case, but for j + k = n − 1, n odd, was studied by S. Helgason [8] and F. Gonzalez [4, 5] on smooth compactly supported functions.

Blow-up of solutions to cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equations with defect: The radial case

In this article we investigate both numerically and theoretically the influence of a defect on the blow-up of radial solutions to a cubic NLS equation in dimension 2.
