THE FOCUSING ENERGY-CRITICAL NONLINEAR SCHRÖDINGER EQUATION IN DIMENSIONS FIVE AND HIGHER
"... Abstract. We consider the focusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation iut + ∆u = 4 −|u | d−2 u in dimensions d ≥ 5. We prove that if a maximal-lifespan solution u: I ×Rd → C obeys supt∈I ‖∇u(t)‖2 < ‖∇W‖2, then it is global and scatters both forward and backward in time. Here W denotes ..."

Abstract. We consider the focusing energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation iut + ∆u = 4 −|u | d−2 u in dimensions d ≥ 5. We prove that if a maximal-lifespan solution u: I ×Rd → C obeys supt∈I ‖∇u(t)‖2 < ‖∇W‖2, then it is global and scatters both forward and backward in time. Here W denotes the ground state, which is a stationary solution of the equation. In particular, if a solution has both energy and kinetic energy less than those of the ground state W at some point in time, then the solution is global and scatters. We also show that any solution that blows up with bounded kinetic energy must concentrate at least the kinetic energy of the ground state. Similar results were obtained by Kenig and Merle for spherically symmetric initial data and dimensions d =3,4,5.
Global well-posedness and scattering for the defocusing L²-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation when d = 1

"... In this paper we prove global well- posedness and scattering for the defocusing, one dimensional mass- critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We make use of a long- time Strichartz estimate and a frequency localized Morawetz estimate. This continues work begun in [28] and [30] for dimensions d ≥ ..."

In this paper we prove global well- posedness and scattering for the defocusing, one dimensional mass- critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We make use of a long- time Strichartz estimate and a frequency localized Morawetz estimate. This continues work begun in [28] and [30] for dimensions d ≥ 3 and d = 2 respectively.

The theory of linear dispersive equations predicts that waves should spread out and disperse over time. However, it is a remarkable phenomenon, observed both in theory and practice, that once nonlinear effects are taken into account, solitary wave or soliton solutions can be created, which can be stable enough to persist indefinitely. The construction of such solutions can be relatively straightforward, but the fact that they are stable requires some significant amounts of analysis to establish, in part due to symmetries in the equation (such as translation invariance) which create degeneracy in the stability analysis. The theory is particularly difficult in the critical case in which the nonlinearity is at exactly the right power to potentially allow for a self-similar blowup. In this article we survey some of the highlights of this theory, from the more classical orbital stability analysis of Weinstein and Grillakis-Shatah-Strauss, to the more recent asymptotic stability and blowup analysis of Martel-Merle and Merle-Raphael, as well as current developments in using this theory to rigorously demonstrate controlled blowup for several key equations.

THE RADIAL DEFOCUSING ENERGY-SUPERCRITICAL NONLINEAR WAVE EQUATION IN ALL SPACE DIMENSIONS

"... We consider the defocusing nonlinear wave equation utt − Δu + |u | p 4 4 u = 0 with spherically-symmetric initial data in the regime <p< d−2 d−3 (which is energy-supercritical) and dimensions 3 ≤ d ≤ 6; we also consider d ≥ 7, but for a smaller range of p> 4 d−2.

We consider the defocusing nonlinear wave equation utt − Δu + |u | p 4 4 u = 0 with spherically-symmetric initial data in the regime <p< d−2 d−3 (which is energy-supercritical) and dimensions 3 ≤ d ≤ 6; we also consider d ≥ 7, but for a smaller range of p> 4 d−2. The principal result is that blowup (or failure to scatter) must be accompanied by blowup of the critical Sobolev norm. An equivalent formulation is that maximal-lifespan solutions with bounded critical Sobolev norm are global and scatter.
Global well-posedness and scattering for the energy-critical, defocusing Hartree equation for radial data

"... Using the same induction on energy argument in both frequency space and spatial space simultaneously as in [6], [31] and [35], we obtain global well-posedness and scattering of energy solutions of defocusing energy-critical nonlinear Hartree equation in R × R n (n ≥ 5), which removes the radial assu ..."

Using the same induction on energy argument in both frequency space and spatial space simultaneously as in [6], [31] and [35], we obtain global well-posedness and scattering of energy solutions of defocusing energy-critical nonlinear Hartree equation in R × R n (n ≥ 5), which removes the radial assumption on the data in [25]. The new ingredients are that we use a modified long time perturbation theory to obtain the frequency localization (Proposition 3.1 and Corollary 3.1) of the minimal energy blow up solutions, which can not be obtained from the classical long time perturbation and bilinear estimate and that we obtain the spatial concentration of minimal energy blow up solution after proving that L 2n n−2 x-norm of minimal energy blow up solutions is bounded from below, the L 2n n−2 x-norm is larger than the potential energy.
