Abstract

This paper is a continuation of Part~I \cite{QTWPartI}, where blow-up analysis and compactness results for the CR Nirenberg problem were established. We prove some existence and degree results for the CR Nirenberg problem on the standard sphere. More precisely, we first prove existence results under antipodal and, more generally, finite-group symmetries. Without symmetry, we derive a Leray--Schauder degree formula under natural flatness conditions, yielding existence results for positive prescribed curvatures with certain homogeneous expansions at critical points. We also obtain Aubin-type inequalities under a vanishing first-moment condition, uniformly near the critical exponent.

Suppression of blow-up in the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system via non-parallel shear flows

In this paper, we consider the three-dimensional Patlak-Keller-Segel system coupled with the Navier-Stokes equations near the non-parallel shear flow $( Ay, 0, Ay )$ in $\mathbb{T}\times\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{T}$. We show that if the shear flow is sufficiently strong (A is large enough), then the solutions to Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system are global in time without any smallness restriction on the initial cell mass as long as the initial velocity satisfies $A^{\frac{2}{3}}\|u_{\rm in}\|_{H^2}\leq C_0$, which seems to be the first result of studying the suppression effect of shear flows for the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system. Moreover, it implies that the solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations are global in time if the initial velocity satisfies $A^{\frac{2}{3}}\|v_{\rm in}-(Ay,0,Ay)\|_{H^2}\leq C_0,$ which also shows the transition threshold for the shear flow $(Ay,0,Ay)$ in $\mathbb{T}\times\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{T}$.

Quantization analysis of Moser-Trudinger equations in the Poincaré disk and applications

In this paper, we first establish the quantitative properties for positive solutions to the Moser-Trudinger equation in the two-dimensional Poincaré disk $\mathbb{B}^2$: \begin{equation*}\label{mt1} \left\{ \begin{aligned} &-Δ_{\mathbb{B}^2}u=λue^{u^2},\ x\in\mathbb{B}^2, &u\to0,\ \text{when}\ ρ(x)\to\infty, &\|\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^2} u\|_{L^2(\mathbb{B}^2)}^2\leq M_0, \end{aligned} \right. \end{equation*} where $0<λ<\frac{1}{4}=\inf\limits_{u\in W^{1,2}(\mathbb{B}^2)\backslash\{0\}}\frac{\|\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^2}u\|_{L^2(\mathbb{B}^2)}^2}{\|u\|_{L^2(\mathbb{B}^2)}^2}$, $ρ(x)$ denotes the geodesic distance between $x$ and the origin and $M_0$ is a fixed large positive constant (see Theorem \ref{thm1}). Furthermore, by carefully analyzing the asymptotic expansion of the Dirichlet energy \(\|\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^2} u\|_{L^2(\mathbb{B}^2)}^2\) as \(λ\to 0\), and establishing that \[ \lim_{\substack{λ\to 1/4}} \int_{\mathbb{B}^2} |\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^2} u_λ|^2 \, dV_{\mathbb{B}^2} = +\infty \] for~the ~nonzero~least energy solution, we are able to prove the existence of a critical point for the Moser-Trudinger functional \(F(u) = \int_{\mathbb{B}^2} (e^{u^2} - 1) \, dV_{\mathbb{B}^2}\) under the constraint \(\int_{\mathbb{B}^2} |\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^2} u|^2 \, dV_{\mathbb{B}^2} = Λ\) for \(Λ\in (4π, +\infty)\), up to some Möbius transformation. This result is substantially different from the non-existence of critical points for the Moser-Trudinger functional in the Euclidean disk. Finally, by applying a local Pohozaev identity around the origin and exploiting the uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy initial value problem for ODEs, we prove that the Moser-Trudinger equation has a unique positive solution up to some Möbius transformation when $λ$ is close to $0$.

Local asymptotics for singular solutions to critical Hartree equations

For $n\geqslant3$ and $0<α<n$, we study positive classical solutions of critical Hartree equations that blow up at the origin. For the global problem on $\mathbb R^n\setminus\{0\}$, with the Hartree potential integrated over $\mathbb R^n$, we prove that solutions in $L^p(\mathbb R^n)$, where $p=(n+α)/(n-2)$, are radial and nonincreasing in $|x|$. We establish an integral representation and apply moving spheres to this nonlocal problem. For the local problem on $B_R\setminus\{0\}$, with the Hartree potential integrated over $B_R$, we prove $u(x)\leqslant C|x|^{-(n-2)/2}$ near the origin and \begin{equation*} u(x)=\bar u(|x|)\bigl(1+\mathcal O(|x|)\bigr)\qquad\text{as }x\to0, \end{equation*} where $\bar u$ is the spherical average of $u$. A main difficulty is controlling the nonlocal Hartree potential under Kelvin inversion and in the blow-up limit. The local proof combines blow-up analysis and moving spheres with estimates of the integral tails and an auxiliary Liouville lemma. We also give an alternative proof of the classification of positive $C^2$ solutions of the critical Hartree equation in $\mathbb R^n$.
