Stability of global self-similar solutions to the cubic wave equation and the wave maps equation

We study the long-time stability of global self-similar solutions to two energy supercritical nonlinear wave equations, namely, the cubic nonlinear wave equation in $6$ dimensions and the corotational wave maps equation in $4$ dimensions. We prove the stability of self-similar solutions under perturbations that are small in the critical Sobolev spaces. The proof is based on Strichartz estimates for wave equations with potentials in similarity variables.

Improved well-posedness for quasilinear and sharp local well-posedness for semilinear KP-I equations

We show new well-posedness results in anisotropic Sobolev spaces for dispersion-generalized KP-I equations with increased dispersion compared to the KP-I equation. We obtain the sharp dispersion rate, below which generalized KP-I equations on $\mathbb{R}^2$ and on $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$ exhibit quasilinear behavior. In the quasilinear regime, we show improved well-posedness results relying on short-time Fourier restriction. In the semilinear regime, we show sharp well-posedness with analytic data-to-solution mapping. On $\mathbb{R}^2$ we cover the full subcritical range, whereas on $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$ the sharp well-posedness is strictly subcritical. Nonlinear Loomis-Whitney inequalities are one ingredient. These are presently proved for Borel measures with growth condition reflecting the different geometries of the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$, the cylinder $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$, and the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$. Finally, we point out that on tori $\mathbb{T}^2_γ$, KP-I equations are never semilinear.

Low regularity well-posedness for KP-I equations: the dispersion-generalized case

We prove new well-posedness results for dispersion-generalized Kadomtsev--Petviashvili I equations in $\mathbb{R}^2$, which family links the classical KP-I equation with the fifth order KP-I equation. For strong enough dispersion, we show global well-posedness in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$. To this end, we combine resonance and transversality considerations with Strichartz estimates and a nonlinear Loomis--Whitney inequality. Moreover, we prove that for small dispersion, the equations cannot be solved via Picard iteration. In this case, we use an additional frequency dependent time localization.

Decoupling inequality for paraboloid under shell type restriction and its application to the periodic Zakharov system

In this paper, we establish local well-posedness for the Zakharov system on $\mathbb{T}^d$, $d\ge3$ in a low regularity setting. Our result improves the work of Kishimoto. Moreover, the result is sharp up to $\varepsilon$-loss of regularity when $d=3$ and $d\ge5$ as long as one utilizes the iteration argument. We introduce ideas from recent developments of the Fourier restriction theory. The key element in the proof of our well-posedness result is a new trilinear discrete Fourier restriction estimate involving paraboloid and cone. We prove this trilinear estimate by improving Bourgain--Demeter's range of exponent for the linear decoupling inequality for paraboloid under the constraint that the input space-time function $f$ satisfies ${\rm supp}\, \hat{f} \subset \{ (ξ,τ) \in \mathbb{R}^{d+1}: 1- \frac1N \le |ξ| \le 1 + \frac1N,\; |τ- |ξ|^2| \le \frac1{N^{2}} \} $ for large $N\ge1$.

Low regularity well-posedness of KP-I equations: the three-dimensional case

In this paper, low regularity local well-posedness results for the Kadomtsev--Petviashvili--I equation posed in spatial dimension $d =3$ are proved. Periodic, non-periodic and mixed settings as well as generalized dispersion relations are considered. In the weak dispersion regime, these initial value problems show a quasilinear behavior so that bilinear and energy estimates on frequency dependent time scales are used in the analysis.

Local Well-Posedness for the Zakharov System in Dimension $d\leqslant 3$

The Zakharov system in dimension $d\leqslant 3$ is shown to be locally well-posed in Sobolev spaces $H^s \times H^l$, extending the previously known result. We construct new solution spaces by modifying the $X^{s,b}$ spaces, specifically by introducing temporal weights. We use contraction mapping principle to prove local well-posedness in the same. The result obtained is sharp up to endpoints.
